[Explanation] The above-mentioned inspection apparatus is designed to increase the speed of the TFT drive in terms of the countermeasure against the display of the liquid crystal panel 5 during the lighting inspection. For example, it is speeding up to 120~180Hz. However, when the speed is increased to 1 2 0 to 1 0 0 Η z, the signal from the integrated circuit board 28 for driving the printed circuit board 26 is susceptible to noise interference. When electromagnetic waves are generated by the clutter, the FPC motor 29 picks up the magnetic wave, which causes a poor transmission (error: error), and the influence of the lighting on the liquid crystal panel 5 causes the inspection accuracy to decrease. . The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a probe unit capable of minimizing the influence of noise and a means for solving the problem. The unit includes: a probe assembly that transmits a check signal to a circuit electrode provided on a surface of the inspection target board; and a printed board that passes through the probe base to form a connection connection between the probe assembly and the external device The driving is to take more than 200907357 parts of the touch cable, and the above-mentioned probe is assembled with the volume body circuit; and the driving integrated body is the FPC cable package. According to the above-mentioned probe set, the signal transmitted to the driving circuit is difficult to be subjected to the clutter, and when it is set to 1 ο Ω to be set according to the above-mentioned resistance, the cable is sent to the above-mentioned probe. All: an external board setting portion; a cable portion supported by: an FPC board that can connect the cable portion side; and an FPC circuit that performs the accompanying inspection process to transmit the electric signal supplied to the inspection is installed in the above-mentioned probe The printing of the needle base is connectable to the driving integrated circuit and the upper structure, and the inspection signal detected by the contact target board assembly can be transmitted through the integrated circuit, and the FPC can be driven from the FPC. The cable is sent to the above probe assembly and other interference effects. It is preferable that the probe assembly is electrically connected to the FPC cable. In the configuration of the probe assembly to the FPC of 1 〇Ω or less, it is difficult to receive the signal transmitted through the FPC cable to the driving integrated circuit through the upper needle assembly. In the inspection device for dry use such as a clutter, the inspection target plate to which the probe unit is inserted is moved after the inspection is completed, and the measurement portion that can be used for the test from the plate installation portion is carried. [Effect of the Invention] The drive cable fixed to the upper circuit board, the upper circuit board, and the probe group circuit electrode FPC cable are used as the integrated body. Therefore, it is preferable that the resistance of the cable is the influence of the FPC disturbance. It is preferable to provide an external inspection target plate-8-200907357 As described above, since the probe unit and the inspection device of the present invention are hardly affected by interference such as clutter, it is possible to maintain the inspection accuracy regardless of the speed of the FT drive. At a high level.

In particular, since the resistance of 23A of the distal end side of the probe 23 of the probe assembly 14 to the connector 46 of the FPC cable 47 is set to be lower, the inspection detected by the probe assembly 14 is transmitted. When the FPC cable 47 is sent to the drive integrated circuit 43, the signal from the drive integrated circuit 43 is sent to the probe assembly 14 through the cable 47, and is hardly affected by the noise. . As a result, the speed can be maintained at a high level regardless of the speed of the T F T drive. The driving panel of the above-mentioned cable " is a 10 Ω signal from the FPC circuit, and is inspected by the FPC, etc. - 200907357 [Modification] The probe unit 4 1 of the above embodiment is provided.
