Abstract

A micro IC probe, which is a small elastic electrical contact, has been developed to improve LSI testing and reduce its cost. No larger than 300 μm×80 μm, it is fabricated with a pitch of 100 μm by micromachining techniques. Its contact resistance is less than 0.5 Ω, satisfying the requirements for conventional probes, and its compliance is 2-8 μm to accommodate height differences between LSI pads while maintaining contact with them.
