Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of chip testing, in particular to a probe for a test socket.
Background
Chip test sockets, usually QFN, BGA, LGA, etc. are used for testing packaged chips, and probes for testing connection in the test sockets are usually spring pins and conductive adhesives. Because of the influence of the coil-like structure in the spring needle, for high-frequency and high-speed testing, larger parasitic loop inductance can be introduced, and the test attenuation is large. The whole electrical length of the conductive adhesive is short, the parasitic parameter is small, and the signal integrity problem can be effectively avoided. However, when the conductive adhesive is tested, surface contact is adopted, and a large force needs to be applied, so that metal particles in the conductive adhesive are tightly connected to form a test path. Under the test condition of long-time repeatability, the silicone rubber medium of the conductive adhesive generates irreversible deformation and is even scrapped, so that the service life of the conductive adhesive is greatly reduced. Similarly, when testing small pin space chips, the space between each test path is necessarily close, and when the conductive adhesive metal particles are compressed under stress, the thickness of the test paths is thinned, and even the problems of breakage and short circuit occur.

Detailed Description
The above-described aspects are further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that these examples are illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. The implementation conditions used in the examples may be further adjusted according to the conditions of the specific manufacturer, and the implementation conditions not specified are generally those in routine experiments.
Referring to fig. 1, for an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a probe for a test socket, including a conductive adhesive structure, a rigid insulating member 2 fixed at one end in a thickness direction of the conductive adhesive, and a probe head structure disposed on the rigid insulating member 2, wherein the conductive adhesive structure includes an elastic insulating member 1, and a plurality of connection wire structures disposed in the elastic insulating member 1 and arranged in the thickness direction, the probe head structure includes a plurality of probe heads 3 having a number consistent with that of the connection wire structures, and each probe head 3 is attached to a corresponding connection wire structure. The elastic insulating member 1 can be a silicon rubber member, and the rigid insulating member 2 is a plate made of engineering plastic.
During testing, the conductive adhesive structure is arranged on the circuit board, the pins of the chip to be tested are contacted with the probe head 3, and when the conductive adhesive structure is stressed and compressed, the connecting wire structure is compressed into a zigzag passage.
Specifically, the connecting wire structure comprises a columnar channel 1-1 arranged along the thickness direction of the elastic insulating piece 1, a plurality of conductive particles 4 filled in the columnar channel 1-1, and a rigid insulating limiting sleeve 5 fixed on the circumference of the columnar channel 1-1, wherein the rigid insulating limiting sleeve 5 is made of engineering plastics, and the length of the rigid insulating limiting sleeve 5 is one half of the thickness of the elastic insulating piece 1. Preferably, the rigid insulation limiting sleeves at the adjacent columnar channels 1-1 are arranged in a staggered manner, as shown in fig. 2, so that when the elastic insulating piece 1 is compressed, the columnar channels 1-1 are compressed into a saw-tooth shape, the inductance characteristic of the adjacent test channels is kept unchanged, the capacitance characteristic of the adjacent test channels is increased, the impedance can be effectively controlled, the far-end crosstalk is reduced, and a higher test bandwidth is obtained.
Referring to fig. 3, the probe head 3 includes a base 3c1, and a needle end 3c2 fixed to the base 3c1, wherein the outer diameter of the base 3-1 is larger than the needle end 3c2.
Correspondingly, in order to fix the probe head 3, a limiting penetrating groove matched with the probe head 3 is formed in the rigid insulating member 2, the limiting penetrating groove comprises a first groove part 2-1 and a second groove part 2-2 which are communicated up and down, wherein the inner diameter of the first groove part 2-1 is smaller than that of the second groove part 2-2, and a limiting table matched with the base 3 is formed between the first groove part 2-1 and the second groove part 2-2, so that the probe head 3 can be clamped and fixed in the rigid insulating member 2. Specifically, the probe head 3 is in clearance fit with the limiting through groove, and a 50um gap is formed between the probe head 3 and the inner wall of the limiting through groove.
In this example, in the test state, the length of the saw-tooth path is not more than 1mm, so that the signal integrity problem caused by excessive parasitic parameters due to the overlong channel can be avoided.
In this example, the roughness of the end surface of the rigid insulating material 2 bonded to the elastic insulating material 1 is N10 or more, and the rigid insulating material 2 is bonded to the elastic insulating material 1 by resin glue.
According to the probe structure, through the cooperation of the probe head 3 and the elastic insulating piece 1, the probe head 3 can ensure that the test channels are in good contact with the tested chip, connection between the test channels can be completed without larger pressure, the problem that the service life of the conductive adhesive structure is short due to large test pressure is avoided, meanwhile, the sawtooth-shaped structure of the test channels can keep the inductance characteristics of the adjacent test channels unchanged, the capacitance characteristics of the adjacent test channels are increased, and higher test bandwidth is obtained.
Referring to fig. 6, a high frequency performance comparison chart of the probe structure of example 1 of the present invention shows that the bandwidth of the novel probe is substantially in the middle for chips with smaller pitches. The mutual inductance is smaller due to the compression of internal particles, and the saw-tooth structure formed by the whole channel is ensured, so that the inductance of a loop perceived by a signal passing through a test channel is kept unchanged. The inductance is smaller than the columnar wiring formed during the test of the common spring needle, the self-inductance is larger due to the spring, and the spring needle is influenced by the chip spacing and the spring needle loading jig, so that the spring needle is required to be ensured to have enough spacing in design, and the mutual inductance of the mutual test paths is smaller. Due to the fact that the self inductance is large and the mutual inductance is small, loop inductance of the whole test path is increased, and accordingly bandwidth of an over-signal is greatly reduced.
The novel probe bandwidth is inferior to that of a conductive adhesive structure, and the main reason is that a conductive adhesive test path can be subjected to larger deformation, so that the loop inductance of a test channel is low. However, the chip design with smaller pin spacing does not allow the deformation of the test channels to be large, which easily causes the problems of medium breakage, service life and the like, and causes short circuit among the channels and the like. The novel probe is small in deformation, reliable contact can be realized, the rationality and the service life of the test are improved, and the saw-tooth structure formed between the channels can well inhibit crosstalk between test paths.
It should be understood that, as required, a larger number of rigid insulating spacers 5 may be provided on the inner wall of the columnar passage 1-1, as shown in fig. 4, and in embodiment 2, two rigid insulating spacers 5 may be provided at intervals up and down in the circumferential direction of the columnar passage 1-1, and in the test state, as shown in fig. 5, the columnar passage 1-1 is compressed into a zigzag shape.
The above examples are provided for illustrating the technical concept and features of the present invention and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the contents of the present invention and to implement the same, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. All equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the present invention should be included in the scope of the present invention.
