Abstract

The invention discloses a vertical MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) bent probe inserting device and a probe inserting method thereof. The needle inserting device comprises an upper fixing structure, a lower fixing structure, a translation structure, an inclination structure, a positioning guide structure and a visual detection structure, and is configured in a manner that when the needle inserting device is in a working position, when the inclination mechanism drives the lower fixing structure to incline, the needle tail of a probe has degrees of freedom of inclined rotation on a theta axis, an X axis and a Y axis in a space of a lower probe hole, and the needle tail of the probe has degrees of freedom of inclined rotation on the theta axis, the X axis and the Y axis; the upper probe holes in the upper cover plate are in one-to-one vertical correspondence with the lower probe holes in the lower cover plate, and the guide holes in the upper cover plate are in one-to-one vertical correspondence with the guide columns on the lower fixing structure. By means of a mechanical structure which is simple in structure and extremely high in reliability and precision, it can be guaranteed that the upper cover plate and the lower cover plate are stable and separated without deviation through pin insertion, the problems of pin bending, repeated alignment, low efficiency and the like are solved, cost is low, precision is high, and the pin insertion yield of the MEMS bent probe with the special structure is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor chip testing, in particular to a vertical MEMS curved probe pin device and a pin insertion method for high-end probe card production. Background technique [0002] The probe card is an important tool for testing chip yield. With the continuous shortening of the chip manufacturing process, the chip pin spacing is becoming smaller and smaller, and the conventional probe card can no longer be tested. In order to meet the testing requirements, vertical MEMS probes manufactured by MEMS process are used for chip pin testing. [0003] For different types of chip testing requirements, some need to use curved vertical MEMS probes for testing. [0004] Reference is attached Figure 2A to the attached Figure 2C The schematic diagram of the structure of the vertical MEMS curved probe is shown. The vertical MEMS curved probe is characterized by a small size (section 60μm*60μm) with a curved arc struct...
