Detailed Description
Please refer to fig. 1 to 9, which are exemplary embodiments of the present invention, and it should be noted that, in the embodiments, related numbers and shapes mentioned in the accompanying drawings are only used for describing the embodiments of the present invention in detail, so as to facilitate the understanding of the contents of the present invention, and not for limiting the scope of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1 to 3, the present embodiment discloses a probe card apparatus 1000, which includes a probe holder 100 and an interposer 200 abutting against one side of the probe holder 100 (e.g., the top side of the probe holder 100 in fig. 3), and the other side of the probe holder 100 (e.g., the bottom side of the probe holder 100 in fig. 3) can be used for testing an object (not shown), such as a semiconductor wafer. Although the probe socket 100 of the present embodiment is described by being combined with the interposer 200, the practical application of the probe socket 100 is not limited thereto.
It should be noted that, for the convenience of understanding the present embodiment, the drawings only show a partial structure of the probe card apparatus 1000, so as to clearly show the structure and connection relationship of the various components of the probe card apparatus 1000. The construction of each component of the probe socket 100 and the connection relationship thereof will be described below.
For the convenience of describing the present embodiment, the probe base 100 defines a length direction L, a width direction W and a height direction H perpendicular to each other. As shown in fig. 1 to 3, the probe holder 100 includes a first guide plate 1(upper die), a second guide plate 2(lower die), a spacer 3 clamped between the first guide plate 1 and the second guide plate 2, and a plurality of rectangular probes 4. That is, the second guide 2 is substantially parallel to the first guide 1, and the second guide 2 and the first guide 1 of the present embodiment can be disposed at an interval in the height direction H by the above-described partition plate 3, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments of the present invention, which are not shown, the second guide plate 2 and the first guide plate 1 may be arranged at an interval in the height direction H by other methods.
The first guide plate 1 is formed with a plurality of first rectangular hole walls 11 arranged in a matrix shape, and each first rectangular hole wall 11 is surrounded by a through hole. The second guide plate 2 is formed with a plurality of second rectangular hole walls 21 arranged in a matrix shape, and each of the second rectangular hole walls 21 is also surrounded by a through hole. The positions of the second rectangular hole walls 21 correspond to the positions of the first rectangular hole walls 11 one-to-one, and the through hole formed by each second rectangular hole wall 21 is smaller than the through hole formed by any one of the first rectangular hole walls 11.
Further, a long wall of each of the first rectangular hole walls 11 and a long wall of each of the second rectangular hole walls 21 are parallel to the length direction L (see FIG. 1), and a short wall of each of the first rectangular hole walls 11 and a short wall of each of the second rectangular hole walls 21 are parallel to the width direction W (see FIG. 1). Furthermore, as shown in fig. 2, each first rectangular hole wall 11 is formed with a first outer hole edge 111 on the outer plate surface 12 of the first guide plate 1 and a first inner hole edge 112 on the inner plate surface 13 of the first guide plate 1. Each second rectangular hole wall 21 is formed with a second outer hole edge 211 on the outer plate surface 22 of the second guide plate 2 and a second inner hole edge 212 on the inner plate surface 23 of the second guide plate 2.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the plurality of rectangular probes 4 are arranged in a substantially matrix shape, and one ends of the plurality of rectangular probes 4 respectively penetrate through the plurality of first rectangular hole walls 11 of the first guide plate 1, and the other ends of the plurality of rectangular probes 4 respectively penetrate through the plurality of second rectangular hole walls 21 of the second guide plate 2. That is, each rectangular probe 4 is sequentially inserted through the corresponding first rectangular hole wall 11 of the first guide plate 1, the partition plate 3 and the corresponding second rectangular hole wall 21 of the second guide plate 2. However, since the partition plate 3 has low relevance to the point of improvement of the present invention, the structure of the partition plate 3 will not be described in detail below.
In the present embodiment, the rectangular probe 4 is a flexible strip-shaped structure capable of conducting electricity. The probe card apparatus 1000 of the present embodiment is limited to use rectangular probes 4 manufactured by, for example, Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology, so the present embodiment excludes circular probes having distinct manufacturing processes. In other words, the rectangular probe 4 of the present embodiment has no motivation to refer to each other because the manufacturing processes of the two are distinct compared to the circular probe.
Since the plurality of rectangular probes 4 of the probe socket 100 of the present embodiment have substantially the same structure, for convenience of description, the specific structure of a single rectangular probe 4 will be described below, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments of the present invention, which are not shown, the plurality of rectangular probes 4 of the probe socket 100 may have different configurations from each other.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the rectangular probe 4 has a deformation section 41, a first positioning section 42 and a second positioning section 43 respectively extending from two opposite ends of the deformation section 41 (e.g., the top end and the bottom end of the deformation section 41 in fig. 2), a first contact section 44 extending from the first positioning section 42 in a direction away from the deformation section 41 (e.g., upward), and a second contact section 45 extending from the second positioning section 43 in a direction away from the deformation section 41 (e.g., upward).
Any part of the deformation section 41 has the same cross-sectional area, that is, no bump or groove is formed on the outer edge of the deformation section 41, so any rectangular probe with a bump or groove formed on the deformation section is not the rectangular probe 4 in this embodiment. Furthermore, the first contact section 44 includes a position-limiting portion 441, the position-limiting portion 441 is adjacent to the first positioning section 42, and the position-limiting portion 441 abuts against the outer plate surface 12 of the first guide plate 1 (see fig. 1); the first contact section 44 and the first positioning section 42 together form a cross-shaped structure in the present embodiment (e.g., fig. 9), but the invention is not limited thereto. The configuration of the end of the second contact section 45 can be adjusted and varied according to the needs of the designer (e.g., flat, tapered, or grooved).
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the deformation sections 41 of the probe socket 100 are substantially located between the first guide plate 1 and the second guide plate 2, that is, the deformation sections 41 of the present embodiment are spaced apart from each other and disposed in a receiving hole 31 formed in the partition plate 3. The first positioning sections 42 are respectively located in the first rectangular hole walls 11 of the first guide plate 1, and the second positioning sections 43 are respectively located in the second rectangular hole walls 21 of the second guide plate 2. The first contact sections 44 are respectively located at the outer sides of the first rectangular hole walls 11, the interposer 200 is abutted and fixed to the first contact sections 44 of the rectangular probes 4, the second contact sections 45 are respectively located at the outer sides of the second rectangular hole walls 21, and the second contact sections 45 of the rectangular probes 4 are elastically and separably abutted against an object to be tested.
Furthermore, the plurality of first rectangular hole walls 11 of the first guide plate 1 and the plurality of second rectangular hole walls 21 of the second guide plate 2 are arranged in a relative offset manner. Each of the first rectangular hole walls 11 and the corresponding second rectangular hole walls 21 has a length offset SL in the length direction L and a width offset SW in the width direction W (that is, the length offset SL and the width offset SW are generated by the first guide plate 1 relative to the second guide plate 2), so that the deformation sections 41 are pressed against the first positioning sections 42 and the second positioning sections 43 of the corresponding rectangular probes 4 through the first rectangular hole walls 11 and the second rectangular hole walls 21, respectively, so that the deformation sections 41 are forced to be bent and deformed (the structures of the rectangular probes 4 before and after being forced to be deformed are substantially as shown in fig. 8 and 9).
The ratio of the length shift SL divided by the width shift SW is between 1 and 10, and the ratio is preferably limited to 1 to 3. In the embodiment, the length offset SL is between 30 micrometers (μm) and 1500 micrometers, and the width offset SW is between 5 micrometers and 1500 micrometers, but the invention is not limited thereto.
As shown in fig. 1, 2 and 4, in a first cross section of each of the first positioning segments 42 and the corresponding first outer hole edge 111, the first positioning segment 42 is rectangular and includes a first length L42 and a first width W42, the first length L42 is smaller than the length L111 of the first outer hole edge 111, a length difference DL between the first length L42 and the length L111 of the first outer hole edge 111 is preferably smaller than the length offset SL, the first width W42 is smaller than the width W111 of the first outer hole edge 111, and a width difference DW between the first width W42 and the width W111 of the first outer hole edge 111 is preferably smaller than the width offset SW.
Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 4, in the process of the length offset SL of the first guide plate 1 relative to the second guide plate 2, after the first positioning section 42 is first pushed by the first rectangular hole wall 11 by the length difference DL, the first positioning section 42 is pressed by the first rectangular hole wall 11, and a difference between the length offset SL and the length difference DL is substantially the distance pressed by the first rectangular hole wall 11 in the length direction L of the first positioning section 42. Accordingly, in the present embodiment, the length difference DL is preferably between 5 micrometers (μm) and 35 micrometers, but the invention is not limited thereto.
As shown in fig. 1 and 4, in the process of generating the width deviation SW of the first guide plate 1 relative to the second guide plate 2, after the first positioning section 42 is pushed by the first rectangular hole wall 11 by the width difference DW, the first positioning section 42 is pressed by the first rectangular hole wall 11, and a difference between the width deviation SW and the width difference DW is substantially a distance of the first positioning section 42 pressed by the first rectangular hole wall 11 in the width direction W. Accordingly, in the present embodiment, the width difference DW is preferably between 5 microns and 35 microns, but the invention is not limited thereto.
Furthermore, as shown in fig. 7, in a second cross section of each of the second positioning segments 43 and the corresponding second outer hole edge 211, the second positioning segment 43 is rectangular and includes a second length L43 and a second width W43, and the second length L43 is equal to the first length L42, and the second width W43 is equal to the first width W42, but the invention is not limited thereto.
It should be noted that, in other embodiments not shown in the present disclosure, the first length L42 and the first outer hole edge 111 length L111 may be substantially the same, and the first width W42 and the first outer hole edge 111 width W111 may also be substantially the same, so that the distance of the first positioning segment 42 pressed by the first rectangular hole wall 11 in the length direction L may correspond to the length offset SL, and the distance of the first positioning segment 42 pressed by the first rectangular hole wall 11 in the width direction W may correspond to the width offset SW.
Accordingly, the probe holder 100 of the present embodiment adjusts the length shift SL and the width shift SW to make the deformation section 41 of the rectangular probe 4 in a suitable deformation range and not easily broken, thereby effectively improving the reliability and the service life of the probe holder 100 (or the probe card apparatus 1000). Further, when the second contact sections 45 of the probe holder 100 (or the probe card apparatus 1000) are pressed against the object to be tested, the deformation section 41 of the rectangular probe 4 of the embodiment can adjust the length shift SL and the width shift SW, so that the deformation section 41 bearing the pressure is not easily broken.
In another perspective, referring to fig. 2, 4 and 5, in each rectangular probe 4 and the corresponding first rectangular hole wall 11, the first positioning section 42 abuts against two corner portions (e.g., the upper right corner in fig. 4 and the lower left corner in fig. 5) of the first outer hole edge 111 and the first inner hole edge 112, which are diagonally opposite to each other. Referring to fig. 2, 6 and 7, in each rectangular probe 4 and the corresponding second rectangular hole wall 21, the second positioning section 43 abuts against two corner portions (e.g., the lower left corner in fig. 7 and the upper right corner in fig. 6) of the second outer hole edge 211 and the second inner hole edge 212, which are diagonally opposite to each other. In each rectangular probe 4 of the present embodiment, the corner (e.g., the lower left corner in fig. 5) of the first inner hole edge 112 against which the first positioning section 42 abuts is adjacent to the corner (e.g., the upper right corner in fig. 6) of the second inner hole edge 212 against which the second positioning section 43 abuts.
Accordingly, the first positioning section 42 of the rectangular probe 4 of the present embodiment can be supported by the first rectangular hole wall 11 of the first guide plate 1, and the second positioning section 43 can be supported by the second rectangular hole wall 21 of the second guide plate 2, so that the opposite ends of the deformation section 41 of the rectangular probe 4 can have better supporting effect.
[ technical effects of embodiments of the present invention ]
In summary, the probe card apparatus 1000 and the probe holder 100 disclosed in the embodiments of the invention adjust the length shift SL and the width shift SW, so that the deformation section 41 of the rectangular probe 4 can be in a suitable deformation range and is not easy to break, thereby improving the reliability and the service life of the probe holder 100 (or the probe card apparatus 1000). Further, when the second contact sections 45 of the probe holder 100 (or the probe card apparatus 1000) are pressed against the object to be tested, the deformation section 41 of the rectangular probe 4 of the embodiment can adjust the length shift SL and the width shift SW, so that the deformation section 41 bearing the pressure is not easily broken.
In the probe card apparatus 1000 and the probe holder 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention, the first positioning section 42 of the rectangular probe 4 can be supported by the first rectangular hole wall 11 of the first guide plate 1, and the second positioning section 43 can be supported by the second rectangular hole wall 21 of the second guide plate 2, so that the opposite ends of the deformation section 41 of the rectangular probe 4 can have better supporting effect.
