The chuck plate 106 is moved in the X, 丫, and 2 directions via the chuck transfer device 108. Thus, the burrs provided on the PIN card 1() 2 are arranged to be provided with the wafer 112. The wafer pad is brought into contact. When a plurality of probes, such as Tian Hai, are respectively in contact with the pads of the plurality of wafers, the test HIM is supplied to the wafer of the wafer 112 via the probe card according to a predetermined program. The wafer of wafer ι 2 will be dispatched to the output 峨 of the test signal and to the tester 114 via the 卡 card (10). Therefore, the tester 114 performs a test of 201009350 on the wafer of the wafer i12. However, when the probe card 102 of the wafer probe station 1 is not accurately placed in a water level, the probe of the probe card 102 and the pads of the wafer of the wafer 112 are not uniformly obtained from each other. Contact, and therefore there is a problem in that it is not possible to vertically verify whether the wafers of the wafer 112 are malfunctioning. In order to solve such a problem, in the prior art, the probe of the probe card 1〇2 is forcibly connected to the wafer by raising the probe cassette in a z-axis direction (which is a vertical direction).

Further, the present invention is directed to the above-mentioned problems occurring in the prior art, and the present invention provides a device and a method for correcting a wafer probe station. The parallelism between the needle card and the chuck plate allows the probe card and the chuck plate to be parallel to each other by tilting the chuck plate according to the tilt of the probe card of the wafer probe station contact.曰Technical Solution In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for correcting the parallelism between a probe card and a chuck plate of a wafer probe station, comprising: steps: measuring the probe card - tilting; generating a displacement of a plurality of segments relative to a plurality of first-predetermined positions between the base and the chuck plate, indicating that it is used to vertically support a base of the chuck plate and The spacing between the chuck plates is inclined to correspond to the measurement of the probe card; and the plurality of actuators mounted at a second predetermined position between the base and the chuck plate are individually driven. The seat and the chuck plate become distant from each other or become close to each other at different angles until the sensed displacement information of the plurality of segments respectively tracks the displacement information of the plurality of segments, and the plurality of segments have been sensed Displacement = the number of displacement sensors installed at the first predetermined position between the base and the chuck plate' by sensing the position of the base and the chuck between the mounting positions Interval to output, where the chuck plate tracks the probe The card is ❹ oblique so the chuck plate and the probe card are arranged parallel to each other. The advantage of the advantageous circle is that a probe card and a chuck plate can be taken in parallel with each other by tilting one crystal to connect two chuck plates to the inclination of the probe card, thereby improving The efficiency of one of the tests on the wafer on the wafer. [Embodiment] ❹ The most advanced chess type is a method for correcting the parallelism between a wafer probe station and a probe card according to the present invention, which comprises the steps of: measuring the probe The pre-drilling position of the slant is 'displacement' with respect to a plurality of segments of the plurality of first struts between the pedestal and the chuck plate, indicating a pedestal of the 冽彳 θ disk plate for vertical support And the spacing between the chuck plates to correspond to the probe card/snake; and driving a plurality of actuators respectively, which are installed at the second preset position between the base 201009350 and the chuck plate, The pedestal and the chuck plate are moved away from each other or close to each other at different angles until the displacement information sensed by the plurality of segments respectively tracks the displacement information of the plurality of segments' displacement information sensed by the plurality of segments And a plurality of displacement sensors installed at a first predetermined position between the base and the chuck plate are outputted by sensing an interval between the base and the chuck plate at a mounting position thereof, Where the chuck board tracks the tilt of the probe card, so The chuck plate and the probe card are arranged parallel to each other lines.
