In this paper, we present a new contact probe card with an insulating resin film that can achieve large overdrive. The probe pins were manufactured using Be-Cu through etching and silkscreen polyimide printing. It was confirmed that the probes have a long life expectancy because they act within the thresholds of elastic deformation. The proposed assembly technology allows us to achieve highly accurate probe units with a narrow pitch and a probe thickness of only 28 μm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
