Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a probe card mounting mechanism which achieves higher reproducibility in the replacement of a probe card and a curtailment of the manhour of working by allowing the replacing of the prove card from the top surface of a probe card mounting plate. CONSTITUTION:A probe card mounting mechanism is arranged to have a probe card mounting plate 3 on which a signal transmission mechanism 5 is mounted to receive and transmit a signal from the undersurface of a probe card 1 to the top surface of the probe card mounting plate 3. With this mechanism, it is possible to replace and mount the probe card 1 from the top surface of the probe card mounting plate 3. The reflecting of the probe card from the top surface of the probe card mounting plate 3 achieves a higher reproducibility of the probe card and a curtailment of the manhour of working.
