The end that second test needle 4 and mainboard 6 that awaits measuring contacted is its test end, and the test end of first test needle 3 sets up the same end at shell 1 with the test end of second test needle 4.

The same end of the housing 1 in the embodiment of the present application refers to an end of the housing 1 close to the motherboard 6 to be tested.
In the embodiment of the present application, a compensation block 9 is further disposed between the first testing pin 3 and the second testing pin 4, the compensation block 9 is made of a metal material, and the compensation block 9 is used for reducing the distance between the first testing pin 3 and the second testing pin 4. The compensation block 9 is connected with the second test needle 4 to realize grounding, a certain gap is kept between the compensation block 9 and the first test needle 3, and the compensation block 9 is prevented from being in direct contact with the first test needle 3 to cause short circuit.
It should be noted that the shape of the compensation block 9 is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application, but in actual processing, the shape of the compensation block 9 may be set to the shape shown in fig. 6 for convenience of processing. Fig. 6 is a schematic 3D structure diagram of a radio frequency test probe structure according to an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 6, a main body of a compensation block 9 is a cuboid, and the compensation block 9 is adaptively matched with a connection portion of a second test probe 4. The width of the compensation block 9 can be set to be the same as the diameter of the second test pin 4, the height of the compensation block 9 can be set to be slightly lower than the length of the second test pin 4 leaking out of the housing 1, the length of the compensation block 9 can be set to be slightly smaller than the diameter of the second test pin 4, or set to be slightly larger than the diameter of the second test pin 4, but it is required to ensure that the compensation block 9 has a certain clearance with the first test pin 3.
For example, the diameter of the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 is generally 0.3 to 0.5mm, the length of the first test pin 3 is 3 to 5mm, the diameter of the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 is 0.3mm in the embodiment of the present application, and the length of the first test pin 3 is 4 mm. The center-to-center distance between the first test needle 3 and the second test needle 4 is 0.8mm, and the length of the first test needle 3 and the second test needle 4 leaking out of the housing 1 is 0.6 mm. The height of the compensation block 9 may be set to 0.5mm, the width of the compensation block 9 may be set to 0.3mm, which is the same as the diameter of the second test pin 4, and the length of the compensation block 9 may be set to 0.2mm, or to 0.4 mm.
In the embodiment of the present application, the compensation block 9 is connected to the second test pin 4 to reduce the distance between the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4, so that the impedance matching of the probe structure can be improved. The principle of adding the compensation block 9 to improve the impedance matching can be briefly explained by the following model.
Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of a parallel two-wire rf transmission line model according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 7, the transmission lines shown in the figure are two transmission lines with the same straight line size, the two transmission lines are arranged in parallel, and the medium 2 between the two transmission lines is air. When the compensation block 9 is not provided, the radio frequency transmission between the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 can be simplified to the above-described model. In the model shown in FIG. 7, the characteristic impedance of two cylindrical conductors in air

Distributed capacitance
Figure BDA0003330444280000072
Characteristic impedance
Figure BDA0003330444280000073
When the compensation block 9 is not provided, the distance D between the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 is 0.8mm, and the radii R of the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 are both 0.15mm, and the calculation result is substituted into the above formula to calculate the Z0 to 175 Ω. As shown in fig. 5, by providing a compensation block 9 having a length of 0.2mm on the second test pin 4, correspondingly, the distance D between the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 is decreased by 0.2mm to 0.6mm, and by substituting it into the above formula, it can be seen that the distributed capacitance between the probe structures is increased, Z0 is decreased, D is 0.6mm, and by substituting it into the above formula, Z0 of the probe structure is calculated to be 131 Ω.
Fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of another rf test probe structure provided in this embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 8, by further increasing the length of the compensation block 9 to 0.4mm, the distance D between the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 is 0.4mm, and the Z0 substituted into the above formula to calculate the probe structure to be 61 Ω. In the existing standard, the impedance of the coaxial line and the impedance of the rf line are both 50 Ω, and it can be seen from the above calculation results that the impedance matching of the probe structure can be improved by increasing the length of the compensation block 9, i.e., decreasing the distance between the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4.
It should be noted that, the compensation block 9 shown in the embodiment of the present application is added between the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4, and the impedance infantry of the probe structure after adding the compensation block 9 can directly calculate according to the corresponding formula in the model shown in fig. 7, in the embodiment of the present application, the formula is directly used to calculate the impedance of the probe structure after adding the compensation block 9, and the calculation result is not the true impedance value of the probe structure after adding the compensation block 9. In the embodiment of the present application, the above formula is directly used for calculating the result, which is only for convenience of explaining the variation trend of the impedance of the probe structure after the compensation block 9 is added, that is, the length of the compensation block 9 between the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 is increased to reduce the distance between the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4, so that the impedance of the probe structure can be effectively reduced, and the impedance of the probe structure is closer to 50 Ω in the design standard, thereby improving the matching.
In order to analyze the matching improvement effect of the probe structure after the compensation block 9 is added, the embodiment of the application compares the S11 performances of the radio frequency test probe structure before and after the compensation block 9 is added. Referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a diagram illustrating an rf test probe structure according to an embodiment of the present application and S of the rf test probe structure shown in fig. 411The curves are compared with the graph. Referring to FIG. 9, a curve S1 shows the S of an RF test probe structure according to an embodiment of the present invention11Curve, curve S2 shows the S of the RF test probe structure of FIG. 411Curve line. As can be seen from the curves S1 and S2, the return loss of the RF test probe structure provided by the embodiment of the present application is lower than that of the RF test probe structure shown in FIG. 4 under the same RF frequency, which indicates that the RF test probe structure after adding the compensation block 9 is more than that without adding the compensation block 9The bandwidth matching is better.
In the embodiment of the present application, when the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 are disposed, the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 may be disposed in parallel, and the axis of the first test pin 3 and the axis of the second test pin 4 may be both parallel to the center line of the housing 1. Namely, the probe structure is kept to be vertically placed, so that the first test needle 3 and the second test needle 4 can be vertically contacted with the mainboard 6 to be tested which is horizontally placed. In the process of preventing contact, the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 are damaged due to overlarge contact force.
Specifically, the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 can be kept perpendicular to the main board 6 to be tested in the test process. Therefore, the distance between the first test needle 3 and the second test needle 4 can be controlled, and too much space on the mainboard 6 to be tested cannot be occupied. Set up first test needle 3 and second test needle 4 to keep the vertical state with the mainboard 6 that awaits measuring for first test needle 3 and second test needle 4 can not lead to the test needle to warp or break because of the atress is too big at the mainboard 6 contact in-process that awaits measuring, can realize contacting with the mainboard 6 that awaits measuring with the shortest nook closing member 31 moreover.
When setting up first test needle 3 and second test needle 4, because first test needle 3 need link to each other with radio frequency joint 5, and first test needle 3 need form coaxial test needle structure with medium 2 and shell 1, consequently first test needle 3 sets up inside shell 1, fixes first test needle 3 through setting up medium 2 between first test needle 3 and shell 1. And the second test pin 4 mainly plays a role of grounding and can be directly and fixedly connected to the shell 1.
In the radio frequency test process, the length of the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 exposed out of the housing 1 affects the distance between the housing 1 and the mainboard 6 to be tested. Therefore, when the first test needle 3 and the second test needle 4 are arranged, the first test needle 3 is generally extended out of the housing 1 and/or the medium 2 by a length which is a first preset length; the second test needle 4 will also typically be extended out of the housing 1 by a length which is a second predetermined length. The first preset length and the second preset length can be set to be equal, or the first preset length can be set to be slightly larger than the second preset length. The values of the first preset length and the second preset length generally need to be larger than the heights of the devices of the first patch 7 and the second patch 8 on the mainboard 6 to be tested, so that a sufficient avoiding space is formed, a reserved space does not need to be arranged on the mainboard 6 to be tested, the first patch 7 and the second patch 8 on the mainboard 6 to be tested can be provided with corresponding devices according to needs, and the situation that the shell 1 can interfere with the devices does not need to be worried.
In the embodiment of the present application, both ends of the medium 2 are flush with both ends of the housing 1, as shown in fig. 5, the top end of the medium 2 is flush with the top end of the housing 1, and the bottom end of the medium 2 is flush with the bottom end of the housing 1. In addition, the signal end of first test needle 3 also keeps the parallel and level with the top of medium 2 and the top of shell 1, set up convenient processing like this, it connects 5 with the radio frequency to be convenient to be connected simultaneously, bottom and the bottom parallel and level of shell 1 with the bottom of medium 2, can make the first test needle 3 that is located in shell 1 all wrap up by medium 2, be favorable to reducing the impedance, medium 2 has been avoided simultaneously and has stretched out shell 1, cause the interference to the device on the mainboard 6 that awaits measuring in the test process.
In the embodiment of the present application, when the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 are provided, both the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 may be provided as elastic pins. The first testing needle 3 is an elastic needle, which means that after the testing end of the first testing needle 3 is contacted with the first patch 7 on the mainboard 6 to be tested, and after the first testing needle 3 is subjected to a force in the axial direction, the first preset length can be changed along with the force. Similarly, the second testing pin 4 is an elastic pin, which means that after the testing end of the second testing pin 4 contacts the second patch 8 on the motherboard 6 to be tested, and when the second testing pin 4 receives a force in the axial direction, the second preset length can be changed along with the force. For example, when the housing 1 moves towards the main board 6 to be tested, after the testing end of the first testing pin 3 contacts with the first patch 7 on the main board 6 to be tested and the testing end of the second testing pin 4 contacts with the second patch 8 on the main board 6 to be tested, the housing 1 continues to move towards the direction close to the main board 6 to be tested, and then the first preset length and the second preset length both shorten along with the continued movement of the housing 1. After the test end of the first test pin 3 and the test end of the second test pin 4 are respectively contacted with the first patch 7 and the second patch 8 on the mainboard 6 to be tested, and the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 are both in a compressed state, if the housing 1 moves towards the direction far away from the mainboard 6 to be tested, the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 are lengthened along with the movement of the housing 1 due to the elasticity.
Further, the first test pin 3 may be an elastic pin, and the second test pin 4 may be a hard pin. The second test needle 4 is a hard needle, which means that: after the second test needle 4 is contacted with the second patch 8 on the mainboard 6 to be tested, the second preset length of the second test needle 4 can not be changed due to the stress change of the second test needle 4. That is, after the second testing pin 4 contacts the second patch 8 on the main board 6 to be tested, if the housing 1 continues to move toward the direction close to the main board 6 to be tested, when the stress of the second testing pin 4 is too large, the second testing pin 4 may be damaged or the second patch 8 on the main board 6 to be tested and the main board 6 to be tested may be damaged.
It should be noted that, when the first testing pin 3 and the second testing pin 4 are both in a natural state, the first preset length may be set to be greater than the second preset length, or the first preset length may be set to be equal to the second preset length. The natural state refers to a state when the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 are not subjected to external force, and when the radio frequency probe test structure is not in a test state, namely, a suspended state when the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 are not in contact with the mainboard 6 to be tested, the state at this time is a natural state.
In general, when the first test pin 3 is a pogo pin and the second test pin 4 is a hard pin, the first preset length may be set to be greater than the second preset length. For example, the first preset length is set to 0.6mm, and the second preset length is set to 0.5 mm. In the test process, when the shell 1 is close to the mainboard 6 that awaits measuring gradually, because first length of predetermineeing is greater than the second length of predetermineeing, first test needle 3 can be prior to second test needle 4 and the mainboard 6 contact that awaits measuring, because first test needle 3 is the pogo pin, after first test needle 3 and the mainboard 6 that awaits measuring contact, shell 1 continues to be close to the mainboard 6 that awaits measuring, and first test needle 3 can be compressed, until second test needle 4 and the mainboard 6 contact that awaits measuring. Because the second test needle 4 is the stereoplasm needle, consequently after second test needle 4 and the mainboard 6 that awaits measuring contact, shell 1 stop motion, first test needle 3 and second test needle 4 all keep good contact with the mainboard 6 that awaits measuring this moment, because first test needle 3 and second test needle 4 parallel arrangement, first length of predetermineeing at this moment equals with second length of predetermineeing.
When the first test pin 3 and the second test pin 4 are both pogo pins, the first preset length may be set to be equal to the second preset length. For example, the first preset length and the second preset length are both set to be 0.6 mm. In the test process, when the shell 1 is gradually close to the mainboard 6 to be tested, because first preset length equals second preset length, consequently first test needle 3 and second test needle 4 can contact with the mainboard 6 to be tested simultaneously, and because first test needle 3 and second test needle 4 are the pogo pin, after first test needle 3 and second test needle 4 contact with the mainboard 6 to be tested, shell 1 continues to be close to the mainboard 6 to be tested, first test needle 3 and second test needle 4 can be compressed because of having elasticity, the condition that first test needle 3 and second test needle 4 are impaired can not appear.

In the embodiment of the application, the metal annular block 11 is arranged outside the needle head 32 of the first test needle 3, and the annular block 11 is communicated with the second test needle 4 through the connecting block 10 made of a conductive material, so that the needle head 32 of the first test needle 3 and the annular block 11 form a coaxial structure, and the impedance of the coaxial structure can be accurately adjusted to be 50 Ω by controlling the diameter of the annular block 11, so that good signal matching is realized. By using air as the medium 2 in the coaxial structure, the diameter of the annular block 11 can be reduced to achieve the effect of reducing the avoidance space.
In the embodiment of the present application, the shapes of the ring block 11 and the connection block 10 may be set with reference to fig. 11, and fig. 11 is a schematic 3D structure diagram of another structure of the rf test probe according to the embodiment of the present application.

As shown in fig. 12, the radio frequency test structure provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a housing 1, a medium 2, and test pins, wherein the test pins include a first test pin 3 and a second test pin 4. Medium 2 sets up in shell 1, and first test needle 3 sets up in medium 2, and first test needle 3 is coaxial with medium 2, and second test needle 4 is connected on shell 1. The first test needle 3 includes a needle head 32 and a core 31, wherein the diameter of the needle head 32 is larger than that of the core 31.
