【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はプローブカード針先研掃方法に関する。さらに詳しくは、半導体ウエハに形成された半導体チップの電気的特性を測定するプローブカードの針先に付着した異物を好適に除去することができるプローブカード針先研掃方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
半導体ウエハに形成された半導体チップの電気的諸特性を測定するプローブカードのプローブ(探針)は、半導体チップのパッドに押圧接触させられる。その時プローブの先端(針先)にはパッドが削り取られたアルミニウムの粉が付着する。この粉を針先から除去しないとアルミニウムは酸化アルミニウムに酸化されて、プローブとパッドの間の接触抵抗が大きくなるため電気的な接触が悪化して、導通不良が生じ、正確な特性の評価が不可能になる。このため、所定回数のプロービングを行うごとに、針先をクリーニングして粉を除去することが行われている。除去する方法としては、
1.砥石を用いたもの(特開平5−209896号公報、特開平4−96342号公報、特開昭63−2657号公報、実公平4−11167号公報)
2.研磨平板を用いたもの(特開平5−166893号公報、特開平4−177849号公報、特開平3−105940号公報、特開平3−10176号公報、特開昭61−152034号公報、実開平7−26772号公報
3.セラミックス板を用いたもの(特開昭61−4969号公報、特開平1−282829号公報、実開昭61−55338号公報、特開平2−2939号公報、特開昭64−55835号公報、特開昭63−170933号公報)
4.研磨砥粒を用いたもの(実開昭61−97840号公報)
5.磨りガラスを用いたもの(特開平7−199141号公報)
6.ガラスコートを用いたもの(特開平3−76242号公報)
等があり、針先をプロービングと同様に押し当て、アルミニウムの粉を除去するという方法が用いられている。
【0003】
しかし、上記技術に用いられたものは固い材質からなるものであるため研磨クリーニング(研掃)時に、
1.針先が破損する。
2.針先(接触面)の凹凸の間隔が0.35μm程度であるのに対し、セラミックス板等の表面の凹凸の間隔が1〜12μmであるため針先の隙間に付着しているアルミニウムの粉を除去できない。
3.針先が擦り減りプローブの寿命が短くなる。
4.プローブへの圧力荷重(約2.5kgf)ではプローブの針先形状が劣化しやすい。
という問題があった。
【0004】
また、弾性を有する母材に微粉研磨材を混入したクリーニング部材が提供されている(特開平7−244074号公報)。
しかし、このクリーニング部材もプローブの寿命をより長くすることはできるものの、前記1,2および4の問題は相変らず未解決のままであった。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は上述の問題に鑑みなされたものであり、針先に付着した異物を有効に除去すること、針先の破損や形状の劣化を有効に防止すること、およびプローブの寿命を長く保持することが可能なプローブカード針先研掃方法を提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するため本発明によれば、プローブカードの針先に付着した異物を除去するプローブカード針先研磨材において、基材上に微粒子の研磨砥粒層を配設した研磨層と、弾性および緩衝性を有するクッション層とからなることを特徴とするプローブカード針先研掃方法が提供される。
【0007】
また、その好ましい態様として、前記研磨層のプローブカードの針先と接触する表面が、プローブカードの針先の形状に対応した凹凸形状を有する前記プローブカード針先研掃方法が提供される。
【0008】
さらに、その好ましい態様として、前記クッション層が、アクリル系樹脂からなる前記プローブカード針先研掃方法が提供される。
【0009】
【本発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面を参照しつつ具体的に説明する。図1は、本発明に用いられるプローブカード針先研磨材の一実施形態を摸式的に示す断面図である。図2は、本発明における研磨層の形状と、プローブカードの針先の形状との対応関係を摸式的に示す断面図である。
【0010】
図1および図2に示すように、本発明に用いられるプローブカード針先研磨材は、基材1上に微粒子の研磨砥粒5を配設した研磨層3と、弾性および緩衝性を有するクッション層4とから概略構成される。
1.研磨層
本発明に用いられる研磨層3は、基材1上に研磨砥粒層2が配設されている。
(1)基材
基材1は、本発明に用いられる研磨材が、プローブカードとともに専用機に装着されて自動的な移動、脱着が行われるため、研磨材全体に一定の剛性を付与しうるものであることが好ましい。具体的には、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET),ポリエチレンナフタレート,塩化ビニル,ポリプロピレン,紙,布等を挙げることができる。
その厚さは、研磨材に一定の剛性を付与しうるものであれば特に制限はないが、たとえば12〜300μmとすることが好ましい。12μm未満であると研磨層3の強度が弱くなって、破断するおそれがあり、300μmを超えると取り扱いが困難となる。
【0011】
(2)研磨砥粒層
研磨砥粒層2に用いる研磨砥粒5としては、研磨層3の表面の形状を針先6の凹凸形状に対応させることのできる平均粒径のものを選択し、配設することが研掃効果を高める上で好ましい。たとえば、針先6の凹凸の間隔(たとえば凸から凸までの間隔)の長さと同等か少し小さめの平均粒径を有するものが好ましい。針先6として、その凹凸の間隔が0.35μmのものを用いる場合には、研磨層の表面粗さ(Sm)は、0.35μm以下とすることが好ましい。また、研磨砥粒5の平均粒径は、0.5μm〜3μmとすることが好ましい。
このように構成することによって、図2に示すように、研磨砥粒5の先端は針先の凹部の形状に対応してその中に侵入することが可能となり、有効に異物を除去することができる。
その材質としては、特に制限はなく、たとえばアルミナ,シリコンカーバイト,クロム酸化物,CBN,ダイヤモンド粉,酸化セリウム,SiO2 ,Zr2 O3 等を用いることができる。
【0012】
なお、基材1上への研磨砥粒層2の配設の方法については特に制限はないが、たとえば、グラビアコーティング,ナイフコーティング等のスラリーコーティング、静電コーティング、およびドロップコーティング等を用いることができる。研磨層3の表面形状を針先6の凹凸形状に対応させるため、研磨砥粒の平均粒径に応じ、その配設密度を調整することが好ましい。
【0013】
研磨砥粒層の厚さは2〜30μmが好ましい。2μm未満であると短時間で砥粒層が脱離するおそれがあり、30μmを超えると作製価格が増大し、使用者ニーズにそぐわなくなる。
【0014】
2.クッション層
本発明に用いられるクッション層4は、研磨層3が針先6と接触する際に、針先の破損や形状の劣化を防止し、さらにプローブの寿命を長く保持するため、弾力性および緩衝性を有するものであることが必要である。
このため、その物性としては、発泡体系の場合、曲げ弾性率が1.2×103 〜9.0×103 kg/cm2 、またゴム系、アクリル系の場合は、シェア硬度Aが30〜90であることが好ましい。
具体的には、アクリル系樹脂,合成ゴム,発泡体等を挙げることができる。
このようにすることによって、針先6との接触時の押圧力(圧力荷重)を0.3〜0.5kgfとすることができる。
その厚さは、300μm〜500μmが好ましい。300μm未満であると押圧力が大きくなり、500μmを超えると取り扱いが困難となる。
【0015】
クッション層4と前記研磨層3との積層方法は特に制限はないが、たとえば粘着剤または接着剤(例えばホットメルト)を用いた方法を挙げることができる。
【0016】
本発明に用いられる研磨材は、研磨層3とクッション層4との二層構造で構成されるため、適度な剛性と弾性および緩衝性とを併せもつとともに、製造上研磨層3とクッション層4とをそれぞれ別体で作製し、プローブカードの特性や性状に適した組み合わせとすることにより所望の研磨材を好便に提供することができる。
【0017】
【実施例】
以下、本発明を実施例によってさらに具体的に説明する。
研磨層として、厚さが24μmのポリエチレンテレフタレートフィルム上に平均粒径が1.0μmの酸化アルミニウムからなる研磨砥粒をポリエステル樹脂と4:1の比率で混ぜてスラリーコーティングして作製した、住友スリーエム社製精密フィルム研磨材、商品名:インペリアルラッピングフィルム(酸化アルミニウム、1ミル1ミクロンタイプDH)と、クッション層として、アクリル系樹脂を主成分とし、適度な粘着性を有する、ショアA50の住友スリーエム社製構造用接合テープ、商品名:VHB Y−4910J(厚さ1.0mm)とを重ね合わせ、加圧して貼りつけた。
この研磨材を使って針先の研掃を行った結果、研磨材の凹凸の間隔を0.35μm以下にすることができ、圧力荷重を約0.3kgfまで下げることができた。この研磨材を用いてプローブカードの針先を研磨すると、プローブカードの針先に形状変化を与えることなく、プローブカードの針先を研掃すること、プローブカードの針先の摩耗を減らすこと、プローブの寿命を長くすることおよび接触抵抗を下げることが可能となった。
【0018】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように、本発明によって、針先に付着した異物を有効に除去すること、半導体チップの電気的諸特性の正確な評価が行えること、針先の破損や形状の劣化を有効に防止すること、およびプローブの寿命を長く保持することが可能なプローブカード針先研掃方法を提供することができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a probe card needle tip cleaning method . More specifically, the present invention relates to a probe card tip cleaning method capable of suitably removing foreign matter adhering to the probe tip of a probe card for measuring electrical characteristics of a semiconductor chip formed on a semiconductor wafer.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A probe (probe) of a probe card for measuring various electrical characteristics of a semiconductor chip formed on a semiconductor wafer is brought into press contact with a pad of the semiconductor chip. At that time, the aluminum powder from which the pad has been scraped adheres to the tip (needle tip) of the probe. If this powder is not removed from the needle tip, the aluminum will be oxidized to aluminum oxide and the contact resistance between the probe and the pad will increase, resulting in poor electrical contact, poor conduction, and accurate characteristic evaluation. It becomes impossible. For this reason, every time probing is performed a predetermined number of times, the needle tip is cleaned to remove the powder. As a removal method,
1. Using a grindstone (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-209896, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-96342, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-2657, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-11167)
2. Using polished flat plate (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 5-166893, 4-1777849, 3-105940, 3-10176, 61-152034, Japanese Utility Model No. 7-26772 3. Using ceramic plates (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 61-4969, 1-282829, 61-55338, 2-2-2939, (SHO 64-55835, JP 63-170933)
4). Using abrasive grains (Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 61-97840)
5. Using polished glass (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-199141)
6). Using a glass coat (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-76242)
In other words, a method is used in which the tip of the needle is pressed in the same manner as in probing to remove aluminum powder.
[0003]
However, since the material used in the above technique is made of a hard material, during polishing cleaning (polishing),
1. The needle tip is damaged.
2. While the distance between the irregularities on the needle tip (contact surface) is about 0.35 μm, the distance between the irregularities on the surface of the ceramic plate or the like is 1 to 12 μm, so the aluminum powder adhering to the gap between the needle tips It cannot be removed.
3. The tip of the needle is worn away and the life of the probe is shortened.
4). With the pressure load (about 2.5 kgf) applied to the probe, the probe tip shape tends to deteriorate.
There was a problem.
[0004]
There is also provided a cleaning member in which a fine abrasive is mixed into an elastic base material (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-244074).
However, although this cleaning member can also extend the life of the probe, the

[0007]
As a preferred mode thereof, there is provided the probe card needle tip cleaning method wherein the surface of the polishing layer that contacts the probe card needle tip has an uneven shape corresponding to the shape of the probe card needle tip.
[0008]
Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment thereof, the probe card needle tip cleaning method is provided in which the cushion layer is made of an acrylic resin.
[0009]
[Embodiments of the Invention]
Embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a sectional view schematically showing an embodiment of a probe card needle tip abrasive used in the present invention. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing the correspondence between the shape of the polishing layer and the shape of the probe tip of the probe card in the present invention.
[0010]
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the probe card needle tip abrasive used in the present invention includes a
1. Polishing Layer In the
(1) Substrate Since the abrasive used in the present invention is mounted on a dedicated machine together with the probe card and is automatically moved and detached, the substrate 1 can impart a certain rigidity to the entire abrasive. It is preferable. Specific examples include polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate, vinyl chloride, polypropylene, paper, and cloth.
The thickness is not particularly limited as long as it can impart a certain rigidity to the abrasive, but is preferably 12 to 300 μm, for example. When the thickness is less than 12 μm, the strength of the
[0011]
(2) Polishing abrasive grain layer As the abrasive grain 5 used for the polishing
