Abstract

A method for fabricating a micro-spring contactor and a structure thereof. The present invention mainly comprises using the photolithography and etching techniques of semiconductor to form one or more micro-spring contact devices on a substrate. During a production process, a resist exposure developing process is used to form a patterned resist on a substrate. Next, the portion of substrate not covered by the patterned resist layer is formed with a first metal sacrificial layer having a thickness same as the patterned resist layer. Next, after removing the patterned resist layer, a second metal layer is comprehensively formed on the substrate. Next, a planarization step is carried out so that the first metal sacrificial layer and the second metal layer have a same thickness. Subsequently, the above-mentioned process is repeated to define properties desired by a target micro-spring contactor by forming various patterns. As a result, a plurality of micro-spring contact devices with a first metal sacrificial layer containing a second metal layer are produced. Finally, a selective etching property between the first metal sacrificial layer and the second metal layer is used to remove the first metal sacrificial layer and release these micro-spring contact devices. Furthermore, a micro-spring contactor is produced by the above-mentioned method, in which a support structure of electrical connection of a contact pad with the substrate can be realized by stacking a plurality of horizontal support bodies. Moreover, the thickness relationship of these horizontal support bodies after stacking can be used to adjust the flexibility and maintain a sufficient structural rigidity.

Therefore, it is a considerable impact on the manufacturing cost of the integrated circuit manufacturing. This needle card can increase the yield of the finished product from 70% to 90%, '°, good contribution to 1%. The difference in yield is inevitable compared to the semiconductor factory, the impact of the probe card is a test The interface between the test machine and the wafer is “connected to L/requires a corresponding probe card.” The purpose of the test is to cut the wafer, and to prevent the defective product from continuing to be processed.

For example, the epoxy resin ring type rmg Pr〇be Card disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,757, No. 256, is a widely accepted technique in the industry because of its small size, variety and flexibility. The probe card is assembled by manual placement of the probe, and then the epoxy J-plate needle (Epoxyringpr〇behead) is completed; the probe head (the needle on the probe ea) is used again. It is soldered to the printed circuit board (pCB) one by one; after that, there is a better needle processing at 1279556 degrees, so that the coplanar bran of all the probes can be inspected and adjusted after the position of the beech needle is taken. Monosexual fat;!ffi ten card has a short manufacturing time, a small amount, and a reduction in efficiency. 'But there is still a silk design. In order to enable the layer probe to be stressed: ΐ: butterfly reduces the spacing' but its The length of each probe is not the same as that of ff. This limits the number of probes to no longer. Logic In short, in the future, the probe will include r^ 频 频 频 频 频 频 频 粒 粒 粒 粒 粒 粒The distribution, high-frequency testing, and the method of making the probe card for the micro-crystals have not been used. In recent years, there have been many solutions proposed, as explained below. Beam (cLir special 7 Τ '19M tiger exposes a probe card , the probe is suspended by the cantilever m-ever beam, and the micro-continuation is recorded. (4) County edge, full ^-^ (pyramid structure) ^ Reading (piezQel with ie elements) enables these probes to actively move underground. The electronic signal connection is to deposit a conductive film on the side of the cantilever beam to measure the component and the detector. As we all know, Shi Xi is - brittle material ===曰曰 = material strength (four), recorded (toueh_d_ fine (four) will be lower; ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ ΪΪ The probe card does not meet the ever-increasing demands of the industry. Moreover, U.S. Patent No. 5,476,211 discloses a contact of a microelectronic component bomb (wire bondin) ^^ component. Gold wire is welded one by one and wound into a specific probe shape, but because the gold wire is too soft to provide sufficient material strength, it is coated with a harder material such as nickel or nickel. The alloy) forms the elastic force to meet the strength required for the test. However, the current minimum pitch (pitc^) of this technology is about (10) 70, but as the pitch of the pads on the electronic components becomes closer, this technology is becoming more and more 6 t 1279556 meets the requirements; and due to the limitations of such spring interconnect components Such that the production speed is less than the price of home 咼, and can be used in only limited DARM testing ..

The manufacturing method comprises the steps of: depositing a metal film (NiNiCo alloy or chrome molybdenum alloy) having a fixed stress gradient on a substrate by sputtering, and releasing one side of the substrate from the substrate to form an arc-shaped elastic interconnecting element. . This invention limits the thickness of the spring element such that the element's spring constant K (=Force/deflection) is too small to produce a reliable ink contact to the electronic component. Jane & contact force is too small, causing excessive contact resistance, and its electrical signal is only a few micrometers = transmission will increase the impedance, the load is easily too high and short circuit. In order to overcome these disadvantages, U.S. Patent No. 6,64, 432 (Taiwan Patent No. 546,803) discloses a modified technique in which a spring interconnecting member includes a first component material connectable to a base (e.g. Pd/C〇 alloy), and including a second element material having a thermally convertible property (such as Ni/Co alloy), such that the shape of the spring interconnect element j! (ShaPed SpringS) can be changed when the properties of the second element material are changed.
