Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of wafer testing, and in particular relates to a manual-automatic integrated probe card back tightening device. Background Art

[0002] The probe card is a key tool for wafer testing. It serves as a bridge between the chip under test and the tester. Its main function is to perform preliminary measurements of electrical properties and screen out defective chips before chip packaging. It connects the tester and the chip and transmits signals to test chip parameters, ensuring that only qualified chips enter the next packaging process.

[0003] During wafer testing, the probe card is generally fixed by the center fixture on the test head, and the wafer is dragged upward by the probe station so that the probes on the probe card contact the bumps on the chip under test, thereby achieving the purpose of chip testing; the probe station drags the wafer upward to complete the contact with the probes. During this process, the probe card may have an upward displacement, resulting in unstable contact between the probe and the wafer, so the back of the probe card needs to be tightened; currently, there are two ways to tighten the probe card, one is manual adjustment, during which the center fixture needs to be manually adjusted, and the test head needs to be lifted and flipped 180 degrees to adjust the probe card to be ejected The height, that is, the distance between the probe and the bump on the chip under test, needs to be adjusted and then the test head needs to be closed for testing to check the adjustment effect. This takes a long time to adjust and requires repeated adjustments to reach the optimal position, which is inefficient. The other method is pneumatic adjustment and tightening. During pneumatic adjustment, the center clamp is connected to the cylinder, and the cylinder drives the center clamp to move, thereby tightening the back of the probe card. Although this method reduces the difficulty of adjustment, reduces the adjustment time, and improves efficiency, the force is fixed and cannot be adjusted, and the tightening effect is different for probe cards of different specifications, that is, the stability of the probe card after being tightened cannot be guaranteed, resulting in low adaptability.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. In the present invention, the chip under test is driven to move upward by the probe station, so that the chip under test is slowly approached to the probe card. First, a plurality of movable rods are in contact with the surface of the probe station. At this time, the chip under test is flush with the surface of the probe station, so that the plurality of movable rods are slowly moved toward the housing, and then the rack 1 is moved upward by the connecting plate, so that the gear rotates. The rotation of the gear causes the rack 2 to drive the movable ring and the tightening rod to move downward, so that the tightening rod contacts the back of the probe card, thereby tightening the back of the probe card. The tightening rod contacts the back of the probe card through the telescopic column at its bottom, and the telescopic column is in elastic contact with the back of the probe card. In this way, through the extension and retraction of the telescopic column, probe cards of different specifications can be stably tightened by the telescopic column, effectively avoiding the position movement of the probe card after being subjected to a large upward force at the moment when the wafer moves up and contacts the probe card, avoiding unstable contact between the probe card and the wafer, and improving the adaptability of the probe cards of different specifications when tightened. 2. In the present invention, when the movable rod moves upward, the telescopic column on the clamping rod will contact the back of the probe card in advance, and the movable rod continues to move upward, squeezing the card plate through the slope at the bottom of the groove, so that the card plate moves toward the clamping rod. When the movable rod is flush with the bottom of the boss, one end of the card plate contacts the surface of the movable rod. At this time, the telescopic column is in a state of clamping the probe card, and at the same time, the card plate passes through the through slot at the same horizontal position and is clamped in the slot, thereby fixing the clamping rod and the telescopic column, so that the telescopic column remains in a fixed state after clamping the probe card, thereby effectively avoiding the position of the probe card from being offset, and keeping the probe card stable when contacting the wafer for testing; 3.

Since the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the movable ring and the movable ring is guided by the guide rod, the movable ring moves downward slowly, so that the pressing rod drives the telescopic column to move downward slowly, thereby finely adjusting the position of the telescopic column, so that the telescopic column can accurately press the back of the probe card and keep the probe card stable.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0019] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a manual and automatic probe card back tightening device includes a housing 1 and a connecting rod 10 installed on the top of the housing 1, and the device also includes: Boss 2, boss 2 is arranged at the bottom of housing 1, boss 2 is annular, boss 2 is provided with an annular mounting groove at the bottom, and a plurality of spherical pistons 13 are arranged on the annular mounting groove, and probe card 4 is fixed by the plurality of spherical pistons 13; A movable rod 5 is provided on the boss 2, and a plurality of movable rods 5 are movably installed on the boss 2. A plurality of movable grooves 22 are provided in the boss 2. A fixed plate 51 is provided on the surface of the movable rod 5. The fixed plate 51 extends into the movable groove 22. An elastic member 23 is fixedly connected between the bottom of the fixed plate 51 and the movable groove 22. A tightening rod 6 is installed at the central axis of the housing 1, and the tightening rod 6 abuts against the probe card 4; Reverse transmission assembly 7, the movable rod 5 and the jacking rod 6 are provided with a reverse transmission assembly 7, and the movable rod 5 and the jacking rod 6 are moved in opposite directions by the reverse transmission assembly 7; A tightening assembly 8, the tightening rod 6 is connected with the tightening assembly 8; A fine-tuning component 9 is installed on the side of the housing 1 , and the fine-tuning component 9 is connected to the tightening component 8 .

[0021] Furthermore, the reverse transmission assembly 7 comprises: A mounting rod 711 is installed between the gear 71 and the inner wall of the housing 1, and the gear 71 is rotatably mounted on the mounting rod 711; A rack 72, a connecting plate 721 is provided between the plurality of movable rods 5, a rack 72 is provided on the connecting plate 721, and the rack 72 and the gear 71 are meshed with each other; The second rack 73, the top of the tightening rod 6 is rotatably mounted with a movable ring 61, and the side of the movable ring 61 is provided with a second rack 73, and the second rack 73 and the gear 71 are meshed with each other.

[0022] Furthermore, a telescopic column 64 is sleeved at the bottom of the tightening rod 6, and an elastic member 46 is connected between the telescopic column 64 and the inner cavity of the tightening rod 6.

[0023] In one case of this embodiment, the spherical piston 13 is a central clamp for clamping the probe card 4, which is a prior art and will not be described in detail again; the elastic member 23 can be a spring or other elastically retractable member, and the elastic member 23 facilitates the movable rod 5 to return to its original position.

[0024] When this embodiment is actually used, the probe station drives the chip under test to move upward, so that the chip under test is slowly approached to the probe card 4. First, a number of movable rods 5 contact the surface of the probe station. At this time, the chip under test is flush with the surface of the probe station, so that the several movable rods 5 slowly move toward the housing 1, and then the rack 1 72 is moved upward through the connecting plate 721, so that the gear 71 rotates. The rotation of the gear 71 causes the rack 2 73 to drive the movable ring 61 and the tightening rod 6 to move downward, so that the tightening rod 6 contacts the back of the probe card 4, thereby tightening the back of the probe card 4. The tightening rod 6 contacts the back of the probe card 4 through the telescopic column 64 at its bottom, and the telescopic column 64 is in elastic contact with the back of the probe card 4. In this way, through the extension and retraction of the telescopic column 64, probe cards 4 of different specifications can be stably tightened by the telescopic column 64, effectively avoiding the probe card 4 from moving after being subjected to a large upward force at the moment when the wafer moves up and contacts the probe card 4, avoiding unstable contact between the probe card 4 and the wafer, and improving the adaptability of the probe cards 4 of different specifications when tightened.

[0025] like Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, a plurality of card plates 3 are installed through the inner side of the boss 2, one end of the card plate 3 is against the movable rod 5, and the other end is used to fix the top rod 6 and the telescopic column 64. A movable groove 24 is provided in the boss 2, and the card plate 3 is located in the movable groove 24. A groove 52 is provided on the surface of the movable rod 5. When the bottom end of the movable rod 5 is located below the boss 2, one end of the card plate 3 is located in the groove 52. A slope 521 is provided at the bottom of the groove 52. When the movable rod 5 moves upward, the card plate 3 is moved toward the top rod 6 by squeezing the slope 521. The tightening rod 6 and the telescopic column 64 are fixed, and a telescopic groove 1 25 and a telescopic groove 26 are also provided in the boss 2. The telescopic groove 1 25 and the telescopic groove 26 are respectively located at the top and the bottom of the movable groove 24, and the telescopic groove 1 25 and the telescopic groove 26 are both connected to the movable groove 24. An elastic member 27 is horizontally installed in the telescopic groove 1 25, and a pressure block 31 is provided on the top of the card plate 3. The pressure block 31 squeezes the elastic member 27, and an elastic member 3 28 is longitudinally installed in the telescopic groove 26. The elastic member 3 28 is squeezed at the bottom of the card plate 3.

[0026] Furthermore, a plurality of through slots 67 are longitudinally arranged in an array on one side of the clamping rod 6 close to the clamping plate 3, and a plurality of slots 641 are longitudinally arranged on the surface of the telescopic column 64. The clamping plate 3 passes through the through slots 67 and is clamped in the slots 641, thereby fixing the clamping rod 6 and the telescopic column 64.

[0027] It should be noted that, when the telescopic column 64 is pressed against the back of the probe card 4, the telescopic column 64 is not necessarily in a state of being stationary, which may cause the position of the probe card 4 to be shifted. Based on this problem, relevant results are proposed to solve it.

[0028] In one case of this embodiment, the second elastic member 27 and the third elastic member 28 can both be springs or other elastically retractable members. The second elastic member 27 and the third elastic member 28 can facilitate the return of the card plate 3 to its original position.

[0029] In actual application of this embodiment, when the movable rod 5 moves upward, the telescopic column 64 on the clamping rod 6 will contact the back of the probe card 4 in advance, and the movable rod 5 continues to move upward to squeeze the card plate 3 through the slope 521 at the bottom of the groove 52, so that the card plate 3 moves toward the clamping rod 6. When the movable rod 5 is flush with the bottom of the boss 2, one end of the card plate 3 contacts the surface of the movable rod 5. At this time, the telescopic column 64 is in a state of clamping the probe card 4. At the same time, the card plate 3 passes through the through groove 67 at the same horizontal position and is clamped in the clamping groove 641, thereby fixing the clamping rod 6 and the telescopic column 64, so that the telescopic column 64 remains in a fixed state after clamping the probe card 4, thereby effectively avoiding the position of the probe card 4 from being offset, and allowing the probe card 4 to remain stable when contacting the wafer for testing.

[0030] like Figure 6As shown, a plurality of locking plates 62 are disposed on the periphery of the push rod 6 , and an elastic plate 63 is elastically and telescopically mounted on the bottom end of the locking plate 62 , and the elastic plate 63 abuts against the top edge of the probe card 4 .

[0031] A plurality of locking grooves 21 are provided along the inner ring at the top of the boss 2, and a notch is provided on one side of the top of the locking groove 21, and the locking plate 62 enters into the locking groove 21 through the notch. A guide groove 65 is provided on the surface of the top clamping rod 6, and the guide groove 65 is divided into three sections, the upper and lower end sections are in a longitudinal state, and the middle section is in a curved state. A fixing rod 11 is provided on the inner wall of the casing 1, and the fixing rod 11 is sleeved in the guide groove 65. The fixing rod 11 moves along the guide groove 65 so that the top clamping rod 6 drives a plurality of locking plates 62 to rotate in the locking groove 21. The top of the inner cavity of the locking groove 21 is in an inclined state, and the locking plate 62 moves downward along the inclined surface of the top of the inner cavity of the locking groove 21 during rotation.

[0032] It should be noted that although the position of the telescopic column 64 is fixed, the tightening rod 6 may shake during the downward movement, which may cause the telescopic column 64 to be unstable after being fixed; based on this problem, a related structure is proposed to solve it.

[0033] In one aspect of this embodiment, the elastic plate 63 may be connected to the locking plate 62 via a spring.

[0034] In actual application of this embodiment, during the downward movement of the push rod 6, the fixing rod 11 cooperates with the guide groove 65 on the push rod 6, so that the push rod 6 rotates after moving downward for a certain distance, so that the locking plate 62 rotates after passing through the notch and entering the locking groove 21, so that the locking plate 62 is stuck in the locking groove 21, so that the push rod 6 is stabilized, and then the telescopic column 64 is kept in a stable state after being fixed in position, thereby improving the stability of the probe card 4 after being pushed; When the locking plate 62 rotates and moves downward, the elastic plate 63 contacts the edge of the back of the probe card 4 , thereby pressing against the back edge of the probe card 4 , effectively preventing the probe card 4 from shaking and further improving the stability of the probe card 4 after being tightened.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the tightening assembly 8 includes: A threaded rod 82, the threaded rod 82 is threadedly connected to the inner side of the movable ring 61, and a plurality of guide rods 12 are longitudinally penetrated through the movable ring 61, and the guide rods 12 are fixed to the top of the inner cavity of the housing 1; The sleeve 81 is sleeved on the top of the threaded rod 82. A plurality of limit blocks are arranged on the periphery of the threaded rod 82. A plurality of limit grooves are opened in the sleeve 81. The limit blocks are stuck in the limit grooves so that the threaded rod 82 can only move longitudinally but cannot rotate. A secondary bevel gear 83 is provided on the top of the sleeve 81 . The top of the secondary bevel gear 83 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner cavity of the casing 1 , and the secondary bevel gear 83 is connected to the fine-tuning component 9 .

[0036] The fine-tuning component 9 includes: A rotating rod 91 is passed through the side of the housing 1 and is connected to an external driving component.

[0037] Main bevel gear 92 , a main bevel gear 92 is disposed at one end of the rotating rod 91 in the housing 1 , and the main bevel gear 92 and the slave bevel gear 83 are meshed with each other.

[0038] In one case of this embodiment, the external driving component may be a motor or other components capable of driving the rotating rod 91 to rotate. The external driving component is connected to an external control unit, which may be a computer terminal.

[0039] It should be noted that due to certain errors in mechanical transmission and differences in size of probe cards 4 of different specifications, the probe card 4 may be slightly loose when the telescopic column 64 is pressing against the probe card 4, thereby affecting the stability of the probe card 4 during wafer detection; based on this problem, a relevant structure is proposed to solve it.

[0040] In actual application of this embodiment, after the telescopic column 64 presses against the probe card 4, the external control unit is manually controlled to start the external driving component and slowly rotate the rotating rod 91, so that the main bevel gear 92 drives the slave bevel gear 83 to rotate slowly, so that the sleeve 81 drives the threaded rod 82 to rotate slowly. Since the threaded rod 82 is threadedly connected to the movable ring 61, and the movable ring 61 is guided by the guide rod 12, the movable ring 61 moves slowly downward, so that the tightening rod 6 drives the telescopic column 64 to move slowly downward, so that the position of the telescopic column 64 is finely adjusted, so that the telescopic column 64 can accurately press against the back of the probe card 4, so that the probe card 4 remains stable.

[0041] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention may have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present invention to be protected.
