According to the method for inspecting an electronic component using the contact body according to the fourth aspect, since the electrode contacting the element electrode of the electronic component is formed of Au balls having low hardness, the pressure applied to the electronic component The element electrode is not damaged during the measurement, the bonding strength of wire bonding is not deteriorated when the electronic device is mounted, a high quality electronic component can be realized, and the reliability of the electronic device can be improved. Further, damage to the silicon substrate directly below the device electrode is eliminated, and the yield of electronic components in the electronic component inspection process can be improved. Also, since the Au wire and the external terminal are molded with elastic resin,
Since the entire surface of the electronic component is pressed by the elastic resin, concentrated stress does not act on the element electrode, and damage to the element electrode can be prevented. In addition, since the mold resin is made of an elastic resin, it is possible to prevent the surface of the electronic component from being damaged by the mold resin when the electronic component is pressed and measured.
