Description
本發明係關於一種改良結構;特別關於一種晶圓探針卡之改良結構。The present invention relates to an improved structure; in particular, it relates to an improved structure of a wafer probe card.
現有技術所使用之晶圓探針卡在晶圓測試的過程中會對晶圓進行一加熱程序,藉此模擬探針卡上實際工作溫度下的使用情況,同時檢測其良率。The wafer probe card used in the prior art performs a heating process on the wafer during the wafer test, thereby simulating the usage of the probe card at the actual operating temperature and simultaneously detecting its yield.
然而,由於在晶圓測試的過程中會需要將晶圓探針卡上的探針與待測晶圓進行接觸,使得對待測晶圓所施加的溫度一方面會藉由探針傳導至晶圓探針卡所具有的基板與印刷電路板,在另一方面,對待測晶圓所施加的溫度也可能藉由對流及輻射等方式傳遞至基板與印刷電路板的表面。However, since the probes on the wafer probe card need to be in contact with the wafer to be tested during the wafer test, the temperature applied to the wafer to be tested will be transferred to the wafer through the probes.

上述因傳導、對流及輻射等方式傳遞至晶圓探針卡內的溫度,在缺乏良好散熱機制的情況下,一旦累積的溫度達到臨界點,便會造成晶圓探針卡上的探針產生燒針現象,甚至使晶圓探針卡的基板與印刷電路板內的線路燒毀,嚴重影響晶圓測試的時效。The above-mentioned temperature transferred to the wafer probe card due to conduction, convection and radiation, etc., in the absence of a good heat dissipation mechanism, once the accumulated temperature reaches the critical point, it will cause the probes on the wafer probe card to generate The needle burning phenomenon even burns down the substrate of the wafer probe card and the circuit in the printed circuit board, which seriously affects the timeliness of the wafer test.
