Embodiment Construction

[0028] The present invention will be described in further detail by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] figure 1 is a perspective view of the magnetic sensor detecting device 1 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. The overall structure of the magnetic sensor inspection apparatus 1 is defined using a frame 2 equipped with six magnetic field generating coils 3 to 8 and a single probe card 9 . The frame 2 is equipped with a movable platform 12 for mounting a sensor assembly 11 which is a wafer-like array of magnetic sensors 10 .

[0030] The magnetic field generating coils 3 to 8 are subdivided into pairs of coils in which two coils are paired and arranged to face each other in the axial direction. Magnetic field generating coils 3, 4 are paired and attached to the left and right sides of the frame 2; magnetic field generating coils 5, 6 are paired and attached to the front and rear sides of the frame 2; magnetic field...

Abstract

The invention relates to an inspection apparatus and an inspection method of a magnetic sensor. The magnetic sensor inspection apparatus has a rectangular frame including a stage, a probe card, and a plurality of magnetic field generating coils. A wafer-like array of magnetic sensors is mounted on the stage, which is movable in horizontal and vertical directions. The probe card includes a plurality of probes which are brought into contact with a plurality of magnetic sensors encompassed in a measurement area. The magnetic field generating coils are driven to generate a magnetic field toward the stage. A plurality of magnetic field environment measuring sensors is arranged in the peripheral portion of the probe card surrounding the probes. A magnetic field controller controls magnetic fields generated by the magnetic field generating coils based on the measurement result of the magnetic field environment measuring sensors. Thus, it is possible to concurrently inspect a wafer-like array of magnetic sensors with the probe card.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an inspection device and an inspection method for use in inspection routines of magnetic sensors, in particular for inspecting wafer-like arrays of magnetic sensors with respect to their magnetic properties and sensitivities via magnetic property tests under predetermined environmental conditions routine. [0002] This application claims priority from Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-175337, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] According to conventionally known inspection routines of magnetic properties of magnetic sensors, the magnetic sensors are each placed in a magnetic field generated using a magnetic field generating coil such as a Helmholtz coil, and then tested to measure their output signals. Inspecting each individual magnetic sensor enclosed in its package requires cumbersome processing and can incur financial losses in assembly costs for magnetic sens...
