Abstract

A contact structure for establishing electrical contacts with contact targets has a TAB (tape automated bonding) shape with sphere contacts as contact points. The contact structure includes a plurality of contactors formed of conductive leads placed on a ground plane through a dielectric layer where each of the conductive leads has a planer shape to form a microstrip line in combination with the dielectric layer and ground plane to establish a predetermined characteristic impedance and is provided with a contact bump made of a hard conductive material at an end thereof, and a support substrate for mounting thereon the plurality of contactors and extending communication paths from the ends of the conductive leads to a component external to the contact structure. When the contact structure is pressed against the substrate under test, the contactors are bent to be inclined relative to a surface of a substrate under test mounting contact targets so that a bent portion of the contactor produces a contact force in such a way that the contact bump at the end of the conductive lead exerts a scrubbing effect.

Description of the invention (4) Typically, the probe card 170 has a multilayer structure of polyimide, and has a ground plane, a power plane, and a signal transmission line on multiple layers. As well-known technology, each signal transmission line designed is designed with a characteristic impedance, such as 50 ohms, to balance the distribution parameters, that is, the dielectric constant and magnetic permeability of polyimide. Capacitance and inductance of the signal path. Therefore, the signal line is an impedance matching line to obtain a high-frequency transmission bandwidth of 300 to the wafer, so as to supply the current in the steady state and the peak chirp current generated when the device output is switched in the transient state. To eliminate noise, capacitors 193 and 195 are placed between the power supply and the ground plane of the probe card. Fig. 4 shows the equivalent circuit of the probe card 170, which is used to explain the bandwidth limitation of the conventional probe card. As shown in Figures 4 A and 4 B, the signal transmission line on the probe card 170 extends from the electrode 197, including strip (impedance matching) wire 1 9 6, wiring 1 9 4 and pin (cantilever) 1 9 0. Since the impedance of the wiring 194 and the pin 190 does not match, at high frequency, this part is like the same inductor L, as shown in Figure 4C. Because the total length of the wiring 194 and the pin 190 is approximately 20-30 mm, the high-frequency performance of the device under test is greatly limited by the inductor. Other factors that limit the bandwidth of the probe card 170 are the power supply and ground pin 'as shown in Figures 4D and 4E. If the power cord can provide enough electricity to the device under test, it will not severely limit the operating bandwidth during testing. However, since the wiring for supply power 194 is connected in series with pin 19 (Figure 4D) and the wiring for providing power and signal ground is also connected in series (Figure 4E), they are Equivalent to an inductor, causing high-speed current to be severely limited.

Invention Description (5) In addition, 'Capacitors 1 9 3 and 1 9 5 are placed between the power line and the ground line'. Filter out noise and surge pulses on the power line to ensure the measured The performance of the device is normal. Capacitor 193 has a larger 値, such as 1 〇 (F, if necessary, can be disconnected from the power line via a switch. Capacitor 119 has a small ,, such as 〇 · 〇1 (f, which is Fixedly connected near the DUT (device under test). These capacitors function like decoupling high frequencies on the power line. In other words, capacitors limit the frequency performance of contact probe contacts. Therefore, the most widely used probe contacts described above The bandwidth limit is about 2 0 0 Μ Η Z, which is not enough for testing current semiconductor devices. The bandwidth considered by the industry must be at least equal to the capacity of the I c tester, which is currently at 1 GH ζ or higher, which will become necessary in the near future. In addition, the industry hopes that a probe card can handle a large number of semiconductor devices, especially memory, such as 32 or more, and increase in parallel testing Tested output. In conventional technology, the probe cards and probe contacts shown in Figure 3 are manufactured by hand, so the quality is inconsistent. These inconsistencies in quality include size, bandwidth, contact force, and Changes in resistance, etc. In conventional probe contacts, there is another factor that causes unreliable contact performance, that is, when the temperature changes, the thermal expansion ratio between the probe contact and the semiconductor wafer under test is different. Therefore, when the temperature When changing, the contact position will change, which will adversely affect the contact force, contact resistance and bandwidth.

Invention Description (12) 〇 Figure 6 shows that the contact structure of the present invention is located on the wafer under test 3 0 〇 Sectional view on. The contact structure in FIG. 6 is structured by the contact member 30 and the contact substrate 20. The contact substrate 20 has a circuit pattern (not shown). As described earlier, the method of forming the contact 30 is the same as the T A B lead widely used in semiconductor device packaging technology. This TAB lead includes a plurality of conductive leads, is formed on a continuous tape, and is wound on a reel. The TAB lead from the reel is placed on a semiconductor wafer and is attached to the wafer, for example, by thermal bonding. The contact member 30 of the present invention can also be fixed to the contact substrate 20 using the same method. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, each of the contacts 30 has a conductive lead 35, and is disposed on the ground plane 37 through the dielectric layer 36. Therefore, each of the conductive leads 35 is a micro-strip structure, which is a conventional technique in microwave technology. In the microstrip line, the factors that determine the characteristic impedance include the width of the conductive leads 35, the thickness of the dielectric layer 36, the dielectric constant of the dielectric layer 36, and the magnetic permeability. The contact piece 30 is bent and inclined toward the surface of the semiconductor wafer 300 that is fixedly contacting the target 320. Therefore, when the contact structure is pressed against the wafer 300, a contact force is generated at the bent portion of the contact piece. For example, the material of the dielectric layer 36 includes alumina, beryllium oxide, sapphire, glass fiber, glass epoxy resin, Teflon or the like filled with ceramic. Therefore, the characteristic impedance of the contact 30 and the impedance (not shown) of the signal line can be easily matched, for example, 50 ohms on the contact substrate 20. Therefore, the contact structure of the present invention can be operated at a high frequency because the impedance matching is established to the tip of the contact 30.

Description of the invention (13) Typically, the contact ball 3 1 is spherical, but other shapes are also applicable. 'Such as trapezoidal, approximately square, pyramidal, or conical. Typically, the contact ball 31 is a hard contact ball with a diameter of 40 micrometers, for example, made of glass tungsten plating or hard metal. The receiving piece 30 is hard enough that when it is pressed against the contact target 3 2 0 having a metal oxide on the surface, it is sufficient to produce a wiping effect. For example, if the surface of the wafer 300 that contacts the target 3 2 0 has aluminum oxide, the wiping effect can effectively destroy the aluminum oxide surface and establish a low contact resistance with the conductive material under the surface of the tin oxide Electrical contact. Because the contact member 30 has an inclined angle, when the contact structure is pressed against the wafer 300 from the vertical direction in FIG. 6, the contact ball 31 moves in the horizontal direction, thereby further improving the wiping effect. The materials of the conductive leads 35 and the ground plate 37 include nickel, aluminum, copper, nickel-palladium, germanium, nickel-gold, and iridium. As mentioned above, the material of the dielectric layer 36 includes alumina, beryllium oxide, sapphire, glass fiber, glass epoxy resin, Teflon or the like. As also mentioned above, the contact ball 31 is made of, for example, glass tungsten plating or other hard metals. In another example, the contact ball 3 1 is spherical, square, pyramidal, or conical, and is made of a hard metal, such as nickel, beryllium, metal, copper, nickel-nickel-iron alloy, or iron-nickel alloy. In addition, 'contact ball 3 1 can also use nickel, aluminum, copper or other alloys as the base metal'. Externally plated with locally conductive, non-oxidizing metals, such as gold, silver, nickel-palladium, rhodium, nickel-gold, iridium, etc. . In the examples of Figs. 5 and 6, a spherical contact ball 31 is attached to the tip of the conductive lead 35, and the attachment method includes soldering, brazing, brazing, various bonding techniques, including thermosonic bonding, Thermocompression bonding, ultrasonic bonding technology, etc., or applying conductive adhesive.

Description of the invention (14) The shape of the ball 31 can be hemispherical, so non-spherical parts can be attached to conductive leads 3 5 at one end. FIG. 7 is a bottom view of the contact structure of the present invention. Except for the tip of the contact ball 31, each conductive lead 35 is fixed on the dielectric layer 36 and the ground plane 37. Therefore, the impedance of the contact structure up to the tip 5 of the conductive lead 35 is matched with the impedance of the other transmission lines in the g-type system. Although the lengths of the contacts 30 are all the same in the example of Fig. 7, according to the present invention, the lengths of the contacts 30 (i.e., the length of the conductive leads 35) may be different. FIG. 8 is another example of the contact structure of the present invention. In this example, in addition to the example in FIG. 6, the contact structure also includes a pair of contact holders 4 4 located on the peripheral surface of the ground plane 37. The contact holder 4 4 is fixed to the contact base 20 by a screw 4 2, for example. When the contact structure of FIG. 8 is pressed against the semiconductor wafer 300, the contact holder 44 is in contact with the upper surface of the ground plane 37 to restrict further deformation of the contact 300. Therefore, when the contact piece 30 is too bent, the contact piece holder 44 can protect the contact piece 30. In addition, when the contact structure is pressed against the semiconductor wafer 300, it can also provide additional spring force of the contact structure. Fig. 9 is a bottom view of another example of the present invention. In this example, the 'contact structure has contact leads 3 5 in four directions, so the' contact points are arranged in a square shape. Each of the conductive leads 35 is fixed on the dielectric layer 36 and the ground plane 37, except for having a tip of the contact ball 31. Therefore, the impedance of the 'contact structure up to the tip of the conductive lead 35 is matched with the impedance of other transmission lines in the test system.

The contact member 30 is hard enough to produce a wiping effect when pressed against a contact target 3 2 0 having a metal oxide on the surface. For example, if the surface of the wafer 300 that contacts the target 3 2 0 has aluminum oxide, the wiping effect can effectively destroy the oxide surface of the Ming and establish a low contact resistance with the conductive material under the aluminum oxide surface Electrical contact. Because the contact member 30 has an inclination angle, when the contact structure is pressed against the wafer 300 from the vertical direction in FIG. 6, the contact ball 31 moves in the horizontal direction, so as to further improve the wiping effect.
