Integrated circuit probe card
View Patent ↗An integrated circuit probe card comprises a circuit board and a plurality of probes provided with a first pitch between them. The circuit board is constituted by a plurality of laminates and comprises an upper surface and a bottom surface a plurality of testing pads provided on the upper surface with a second pitch between them. Besides, the circuit board can further comprise a plurality of electronic devices provided on the upper surface for processing signals. The plurality of testing pads are connected to the bottom surface by the use of the plurality of conductive wires. The plurality of probes are provided wits a first pitch and connected to the conductive wire on the bottom surface of the circuit board, wherein the first pitch is smaller than the second pitch.
1. An integrated circuit probe card comprising:
a plurality of probes separated by a first pitch;
a circuit board including a plurality of laminates and having an upper surface and a bottom surface, comprising;
a plurality of testing pads provided on the upper surface and sepal by a second pitch larger th the first pitch, and being able to be electrically connected to a test machine directly; and
a plurality of conductive wires provided inside the circuit board;
wherein the conducive wires are separated by the second pitch in an uppermost laminate and seated by the first pitch in a bottommost laminate for electrically connecting the testing pads to the probes.
2. The integrated circuit probe card of claim 1 , wherein the circuit board is constituted by tightly stacking up a plurality of laminates.
3. The integrated circuit probe card of claim 1 , wherein the circuit board can further comprises a plurality of electronic devices provided on the upper surface for processing testing signals.
4. The integrated circuit probe card of claim 1 , wherein the first pitch is smaller than 400 micrometer.
5. The integrated circuit probe card of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of probes are directly in contact with the conductive wires.
6. The integrated circuit probe card of claim 1 , wherein the first pitch is approximately the same as the pitch between signal pads of an integrated circuit device under test.
