Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to suppress the occurrence of shavings produced by interference of a contact probe with a guide plate. [Solution] An electrical contact provided with: a contact part (2) having a layered structured in which an intermediate metal layer (12) is sandwiched by outer-side metals layers (11, 13), and used for making contact with an object to be inspected; an elastic deformation part (4) for elastically deforming by compressive force in the lengthwise direction so as to bend in a bending direction (N) set in advance; and a distal end part (3) formed between the contact part (2) and the elastic deformation part (4) and supported by a through-hole (121) in a guide plate (120) so that the contact part (2) is able to move in the lengthwise direction. The side surfaces of the distal end part (3) formed in the bending direction (N) of the elastic deformation part (4) and the direction (N') opposite thereto are composed of the three metal layers (11 to 13), and said side surfaces are configured so that the intermediate metal layer (12) protrudes more greatly than the outer-side metal layers (11, 13).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electrical contact member, and more specifically, to an electrical contact member in which a contact portion is brought into contact with an electrode terminal as the elastic deformation portion is elastically deformed, for example, it relates to an electrical contact member used in an electrical characteristic test of a semiconductor device. Improvements to contact probes. Background technique [0002] The electrical characteristic test of a semiconductor device is performed by bringing the semiconductor wafer close to a probe card with many contact probes formed on the wiring board, so that each contact probe is in contact with the electrode pad on the semiconductor wafer, and the test is performed via the contact probe signal input and output. [0003] When the contact probes are brought into contact with the electrode pads, the semiconductor wafer is further brought into contact with the probe card after the two...
