Abstract

The invention disclosed a technology of making and assembling the vertical probe cards. The primary features of this technology are using a Microelectromechanical System (MEMS) technology to manufacture the probes, the top and bottom guides. And then, a row of probes fixed by photoresistses (PR), a top guide, and a bottom guide are integrated into a probe module through vision-guided assembly equipment. An array-type force sensor chip is combined to contact with the probe top. Flip Chip packaging technology is employed to bond the sensor chip and the printed circuit board. In this invention, the vertical probe card is easy to be assembled and repaired. When changing the probe, it only needs to take off the sensors and the printed circuit board, and then the failed probe is substituted with a new one.

Hard Baking is done after completion and placed in a hot plate or oven (〇ven). Step 5 · Figure 5 (e), the electric pound (Electr〇f_ (four) step, always exceed the thickness of the photoresist 19, electroforming material: Ni_c〇 alloy. Step 6 · Station 2, the grinding step will highlight the light The material of the resist 19 and the uneven surface are ground to the design thickness, and after the processing of the thickness of the probe is completed, the photoresist is removed to obtain the shape of the probe. v. 7· Figure 5 (g), (8) No, spin coating Thick photoresist 19. After soft baking, place it in a hot plate or oven. Develop it to form a photoresist package, and rinse it with silk water continuously. Wash it thoroughly and then dry it with nitrogen. The photoresist 19 recess is the probe shape. After completion, it is hard-baked and placed in a hot plate or oven. Step 8: Figure 5 (shown in Figure 10, the probe set is immersed in the plating solution to carry out the anti-mine step The thimble is attached to the anode, the purpose of which is to remove the seed layer 18 (Cu) bonded to the bottom of the probe. At this time, the purification layer under the seed layer is tuned to serve as a conductive layer. n above the seed layer 200813441 metal will be dissociated into the plating solution The deposition process begins to complete the deposition of the seed layer metal. Step 9: As shown in Figure 5-1, the original probe is transmitted through the seed layer (Cu) 18 and the passivation layer (Cror - Τ〇 17 combined with the wafer). 'Because the seed layer (Cu) 18 has been removed by reverse plating, the bottom of the probe becomes bare and will automatically fall off to complete the separation step. Step 10: Figure 5 «, 1, (4), (8), get vertical exploration Needle row group 15 or unpackaged single probe. There are two types of probes, which are classified as the blocker at the upper end of the probe [Fig. 5 (4), (8)] or the lower end [(1)] 〇 Longitudinal guide The slab longitudinal upper guide 5 is fabricated by applying microelectromechanical technology. The manufacturing steps are as follows. Figure 6 shows the seed layer on the reference circle 16. The seed layer is composed of step one: Fig. 6(a)*, first in Shi Xijing into 'first money on - layer _ gold ·, seed layer 18 layer 17, _ and then plated with copper (Cu) as a crystal step two: Figure 6 (9), spin coating - layer thickness photoresist ... in the oven. Have to be placed on the hot plate or step 2 · Figure 6 _ not 'into the exposure step, according to the mining (four) fine 19 form, 15 200813441 The position of the exposure is the remaining area. The development of the photoresist recessed shape 'completed photoresist recess is the shape of the upper guide plate. After completion, it is hard baked and placed in a hot plate or oven. Step 4· Six (6) shows the 'Electroforming' step, the total height must exceed the thickness of the photoresist 19, the electroforming material: Ni_Co alloy. The grinding step is performed to grind the material of the protruding photoresist 19 from the uneven surface to the design thickness. , the processing of the thickness of the upper guide plate is completed. Step 5 · Figure 6 (e) ~ (g), repeat steps 2 to 4. Step 6: Figure 6 (h), remove the photoresist 19 to get Guide plate shape. After completion, the surface is covered with an insulating layer (Teflon, ceramic material, heat-resistant material, diamond film, diamond-like carbon film, etc.). Step 7: As shown in Figure 6(i), the probe set is immersed in the plating solution to perform a reverse plating step and the probe is attached to the anode, the purpose of which is to remove the seed layer 18 (Cu) bonded to the bottom of the probe. At this time, the passivation layer under the seed layer 8 (Cr 〇r邛i 7 acts as a conductive layer). After the current is applied, the seed layer 18 metal on the passivation layer 17 is dissociated into the plating solution and the cathode begins to deposit. The step of removing the metal of the seed layer 18 is completed. Step 8: As shown in FIG. 6 , the original metal insulated guide plate is bonded to the wafer 16 through the seed layer (Cu) 18 and the passivation layer (CrorTi) 17 because the seed layer (〇1)18 has been removed by reverse plating, so the bottom of the upper guide plate becomes bare and will automatically fall off to complete the separation step. 200813441 (Method 2) Step 1: As shown in Figure 6(k), firstly apply a separation layer After soft baking, apply a thick photoresist 19, such as SU8. After soft baking, place it in a hot plate or oven. Step 2: As shown in Figure 6 (1), (m), perform the exposure step, according to the The photoresist is in the form of 19, so the position of the exposure is the remaining area. The shape of the 19-hole is the shape of the probe. After completion, it is hard-baked and placed in a hot plate or an oven. Step 3· Figure 6 (η), (〇), repeat steps 1 and 2. Step 4: Figure 6 (Ρ) shows that the removal of the pre-tree wafer 16 is a coated separation layer (Omnicoat), and the photoresist 19 structure and the germanium wafer 16 are separated separately, and then the two-part structure is aligned and then glued. ^. Horizontal guide manufacturing example The application of the lateral upper guide cover 10 is applied to the microelectromechanical technology. The manufacturing steps are as follows: Steps 1 to 8 of the above-mentioned vertical guide plate (method 1), only one layer of electroforming is needed, so that the bovine step is omitted. 5; (Method 2) steps -, 2, 4, because as long as the use of a thick light group, such as SU8, the final lateral guide cap 1〇 appearance, refer to Figure 7. Lower guide production example 'reference map The fabrication of the lower guide 7 is applied by MEMS technology, and the fabrication steps are as shown in Fig. 8. The next (method 1) fabrication steps are similar to the above-mentioned longitudinal guides (method _) cattle ~ to four' and step 17 200813441 six to eight, only There are different mask patterns, and only electroforming-layer is needed, so it is omitted. 5; - (Method 2) - The production steps are similar to the first, second and fourth steps of the above-mentioned vertical guide (method 2), as long as a thick light group is used, such as SU8. (Method 3) Step 1: Figure 8 (8) Shown as a spin-coating of a photoresist 19 as a protective cover for the implementation of the i-fossil 24 opening. Step 2 · Figure 8 (b), the exposure step, according to the form of the photoresist 19 used, is therefore not exposed The position is the remaining area. Step 3: As shown in Figure 8(c), the developed photoresist 19 has a concave shape, and the developer remaining on the surface is thoroughly washed with deionized water, and dried and baked. Dry, this step is used as a mask for performing RIE etching. φ Step 4: As shown in Fig. 8(d), the tantalum nitride 24 is etched away without the photoresist 19 protection region by RIE, and the inner germanium substrate 16 is exposed. Step 5: As shown in Figure 8 (8), the area of the nitride nitride protected by the photoresist 19 at this time will serve as a hard mask for the wet anisotropic etching of the potassium bismuth oxide. The etching depth is about 350 μm, and the main purpose is to reduce the subsequent Icp. The cost of the process, if a thickness of 25 arrays of stone substrate 16, is used, this step is not required. Step 6·· (8), the wafer 16 is reversed and the back alignment exposure method is used as a groove for performing ICP processing. 18 200813441 Step 7: Figure, Mg) The deep hole processing is performed using ICP until the breakdown forms a square hole, and the photoresist 19 is removed to complete the fabrication of the probe lower guide 7. , the finished shape of the lower guide plate 7 is completed, and the plate is inserted through a plurality of square holes. A plurality of collateral sensors are used as the paste family. The microarray force sensor 2 of the present invention is shown in FIG. The general resistance is the surface of the fascinating force, mainly because of the rudder principle of the Wheatstone bridge. Four dampers are arranged around the square film, two of which are parallel to the edge of the film and the other two are thin and straight. When the shape is thinner, the parallel piezoresistance of the two sides of the film will be subjected to the lateral pull force (equivalent to the compressive stress), causing the entire piezoresistive force to be shortened; the pressure resistance of the other two vertical film edges is It is elongated by a tensile stress. The four piezoresistives thus connected to the Wheatstone bridge will have two increases and two reductions as the power is applied. From the above equations, the change in voltage can be used to estimate the amount of change in resistance, and the magnitude of the force received can be determined. The microarray power sensor placed on the probe array is fabricated using complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology, achieving a large price range without the need for post-production. With the contact force feedback of the probe, it is indeed possible to monitor the contact of the probe. The embodiment is designed by TSMC 3535//m process, as shown in Figure 10 (a). The polysilicon 30 is used as a piezoresistive material, and finally the array etching hole 32 is placed in the middle of the structure, and the etching hole 32 is completed by dry etching, and the germanium substrate 16 is etched into a recess 34 to form a force feeling thereon. The film 35 is measured to facilitate the deformation space after the pressure is applied, and the gold 200813441, the contact layer 31, the bonding layer 28, etc. are filled with the dioxotomy.
