The power/signal conductor piece 120 is electrically connected to a power source or a signal. The grounding conductor piece 130 is electrically connected to the ground potential. The insulator 140 is located between the power/signal conductor piece 120 and the ground conductor piece 130. Further, the power/signal conductor piece 120, the insulator 140, and the ground conductor piece 130 are stacked.

The power/signal probe 160 is electrically connected to the power/signal conductor piece 120, and the power/signal probe 160 is directly or indirectly connected to the printed circuit board 110 for touching at least one object to be tested (Device Under Test; DUT, 1st) At least one power/signal contact of ~3 (not shown).

在本實施方式中,探針卡100所具有的電源/訊號導體片120、接地導體片130、絕緣體140、電子電路150、電源/訊號探針160與接地探針170為三組。為避免圖式複雜,在部份圖式(例如第1、3圖)中,僅標示一組作為代表,而在部份需要區分各組的圖式(例如第2圖)中,則加上尾碼a、b、c以茲辨別。 In the present embodiment, the power supply/signal conductor piece 120, the grounding conductor piece 130, the insulator 140, the electronic circuit 150, the power/signal probe 160, and the grounding probe 170 of the probe card 100 are three sets. In order to avoid the complexity of the drawing, in some drawings (for example, Figures 1 and 3), only one group is represented as a representative, and in some parts that need to distinguish each group (for example, Figure 2), the tail is added. The codes a, b, and c are distinguished.
在實務的應用中,電源/訊號導體片120可電性連接電源或訊號,一般來說訊號是指測試訊號,在電性連接電源時,電源/訊號導體片120可以進一步稱之為電源導體片,而電子電路150可為電容、穩壓電路或濾波電路,電源/訊號探針160為電源探針,電性連接電源導體片,用以點觸待測物之至少一電源接點。在電性連接訊號時,電源/訊號導體片120可以進一步稱之為訊號導體片,而電子電路150可為靜電放電(ESD)防護電路或阻抗匹配電路,電源/訊號探針160為訊號探針,電性連接訊號導體片,用以點觸待測物之至少一訊號接點。進一步來說,接地電位必須依照實際的狀況定義,即接地電位是否電性獨立,若接地電位沒有電性獨立,則表示電源或訊號都是使用共同的接地電位來當作參考基準。若接地電位是電性獨立的區分為電源及訊號使用,則當電源/訊號導體片120作為電源導體片時,接地導體片130需要電性連接電源使用的接地電位,當電源/訊號導體片120作為訊號導體片時,接地導體片130需要電性連接訊號使用的接地電位。電源/訊號導體 片120以電源導體片為例,電子電路150以電容為例,可以濾除電源中的雜訊。具體地說,當電源與測試訊號通過探針卡100而進入待測物時,由於電源為直流的,而測試訊號為交流的,因此電源會與測試訊號互相干擾產生雜訊,造成電源被干擾,導致供電表現(Power Performance)衰退。如上所述,電源導體片與接地導體片130能夠提供足夠的空間安裝電容,藉此濾除電源訊號中的雜訊。此外,由於電源導體片與接地導體片130設置在足夠靠近待測物的位置,因此電容也能夠安裝在足夠靠近待測物的位置,使得雜訊不容易在電容到待測物這段路徑中產生。 In a practical application, the power/signal conductor piece 120 can be electrically connected to a power source or a signal. Generally, the signal refers to a test signal. When the power source is electrically connected, the power/signal conductor piece 120 can be further referred to as a power conductor piece. The electronic circuit 150 can be a capacitor, a voltage stabilizing circuit or a filter circuit. The power/signal probe 160 is a power probe, and is electrically connected to the power conductor piece for contacting at least one power contact of the object to be tested. When the signal is electrically connected, the power/signal conductor piece 120 can be further referred to as a signal conductor piece, and the electronic circuit 150 can be an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuit or an impedance matching circuit, and the power/signal probe 160 is a signal probe. The signal conductor piece is electrically connected to touch at least one signal contact of the object to be tested. Further, the ground potential must be defined according to the actual situation, that is, whether the ground potential is electrically independent. If the ground potential is not electrically independent, it means that the power or signal uses a common ground potential as a reference. If the ground potential is electrically independent and is used for power and signal, when the power/signal conductor piece 120 is used as the power conductor piece, the grounding conductor piece 130 needs to be electrically connected to the ground potential used by the power source, when the power/signal conductor piece 120 As the signal conductor piece, the grounding conductor piece 130 needs to be electrically connected to the ground potential used for the signal. Power/signal conductor The chip 120 takes a power conductor piece as an example, and the electronic circuit 150 takes a capacitor as an example to filter out noise in the power source. Specifically, when the power source and the test signal enter the object to be tested through the probe card 100, since the power source is DC and the test signal is AC, the power source and the test signal interfere with each other to generate noise, causing the power source to be interfered. , causing a decline in Power Performance. As described above, the power conductor piece and the ground conductor piece 130 can provide sufficient space to mount the capacitance, thereby filtering out noise in the power signal. In addition, since the power conductor piece and the grounding conductor piece 130 are disposed at a position close enough to the object to be tested, the capacitance can also be installed at a position close enough to the object to be tested, so that the noise is not easily in the path of the capacitance to the object to be tested. produce.
如第2、3圖所示,在本實施方式中,電子電路150的數量為複數個,並且均於電源/訊號導體片120與接地導體片130上排列。舉例來說,當電源/訊號導體片120為電源導體片,且電子電路150為電容時,複數個排列於電源導體片與接地導體片130上的電容,可以提高電源導體片與接地導體片130之間的電容值,能夠使濾除雜訊的效果進一步提升,但本發明並不以此為限。進一步來說,電源導體片與接地導體片130上的電容值可以依照排列的數目增加,因此可以有效將濾除雜訊的效果提升,但以先前的技術來說,電源探針的一端必須電性連接到印刷電路板110,所以空間上來說,無法設置很多的電容,因此,電容值不可能高過本案的實施方式。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, in the present embodiment, the number of electronic circuits 150 is plural, and they are all arranged on the power/signal conductor piece 120 and the ground conductor piece 130. For example, when the power/signal conductor piece 120 is a power conductor piece and the electronic circuit 150 is a capacitor, a plurality of capacitors arranged on the power conductor piece and the ground conductor piece 130 can improve the power conductor piece and the ground conductor piece 130. The capacitance between the two can further improve the effect of filtering noise, but the invention is not limited thereto. Further, the capacitance value of the power conductor piece and the grounding conductor piece 130 can be increased according to the number of arrays, so that the effect of filtering noise can be effectively improved, but in the prior art, one end of the power supply probe must be electrically charged. The connection is made to the printed circuit board 110, so that a large number of capacitors cannot be set in space, and therefore, the capacitance value cannot be higher than the embodiment of the present invention.
應了解到,以上所舉電子電路150為電容的選擇僅為例示,並非用以限制本發明,本發明所屬技術領域中具 有通常知識者,應視實際需要,適當選擇電子電路150的種類。舉例而言,電子電路150除了可為電容外,亦可為穩壓電路、濾波電路、靜電放電防護電路或阻抗匹配電路,但本發明並不以此為限。 It should be understood that the selection of the above-mentioned electronic circuit 150 for the capacitor is merely an example, and is not intended to limit the present invention. If there is general knowledge, the type of electronic circuit 150 should be appropriately selected depending on actual needs. For example, the electronic circuit 150 can be a voltage regulator circuit, a filter circuit, an electrostatic discharge protection circuit, or an impedance matching circuit, but the invention is not limited thereto.

請參照第6圖,其繪示依照本發明另一實施方式之探針卡100的正視圖。本實施方式與上一實施方式的不同點在於,由於部份測試規範對於接地電位是否電性獨立沒 有要求,因此製造者也可以選擇以單一接地導體片130來搭配複數個電源/訊號導體片120a、120b、120c,而複數個接地探針170a、170b、170c則共同電性連接同一張接地導體片130,藉此讓空間的配置更為靈活。 Please refer to FIG. 6, which illustrates a front view of a probe card 100 in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention.
