[0050] Next, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the technical solutions in some embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments provided by the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
[0051] Unless the context otherwise requires, throughout the specification and claims, the term "comprise" and its other forms, such as the third-person singular form "comprises" and the present participle form "comprising", are interpreted as open and inclusive, that is, "including, but not limited to". In the description of the specification, the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "exemplary embodiments", "example", "specific example", or "some examples", etc., are intended to indicate that the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics related to the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present disclosure. The schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. In addition, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics may be included in any one or more embodiments or examples in any appropriate manner.
[0052] Hereinafter, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality" is two or more.
[0053] When describing some embodiments, the expressions "coupled" and "connected" and their derivatives may be used. The term "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connected" may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. The term "coupled" indicates, for example, that two or more components have direct physical contact or electrical contact. The term "coupled" or "communicatively coupled" may also refer to two or more components that do not have direct contact with each other but still cooperate or interact with each other. The embodiments disclosed herein are not necessarily limited to the content herein.
[0054] As used herein, "parallel" and "perpendicular" include the described situations as well as situations similar to the described situations, where the range of the similar situations is within an acceptable deviation range, and the acceptable deviation range is determined by those of ordinary skill in the art considering the measurements being discussed and the errors associated with the measurements of specific quantities (i.e., the limitations of the measurement system). For example, "parallel" includes absolute parallelism and approximate parallelism, where the acceptable deviation range for approximate parallelism can be, for example, within a deviation of 5°; "perpendicular" includes absolute perpendicularity and approximate perpendicularity, where the acceptable deviation range for approximate perpendicularity can also be, for example, within a deviation of 5°.
[0055] It should be understood that when a layer or element is referred to as being on another layer or substrate, it can be that the layer or element is directly on the other layer or substrate, or there can be an intermediate layer between the layer or element and the other layer or substrate.
[0056] Exemplary embodiments are described herein with reference to cross-sectional views and / or plan views that are idealized exemplary drawings. In the drawings, the thickness of the layers and the area of the regions are enlarged for clarity. Thus, variations in the shape relative to the drawings due to, for example, manufacturing techniques and / or tolerances can be envisioned. Therefore, the exemplary embodiments should not be construed as being limited to the shapes of the regions shown herein, but include shape deviations caused, for example, by manufacturing. For example, an etched region shown as rectangular will typically have curved features. Thus, the regions shown in the drawings are schematic in nature, and their shapes are not intended to show the actual shape of the regions of the device and are not intended to limit the scope of the exemplary embodiments.
[0057] During the chip manufacturing process, at least one corresponding probe card structure is required for each type of chip for testing. The purpose of the test is to ensure that after the wafer is diced, the good products will enter the next packaging process, avoiding waste caused by continued processing of defective products. As the chip integration density has increased significantly, the distance between the pads of the chip has been greatly reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to synchronously reduce the line width and line pitch of the probe card structure to reduce the distance (pitch) between the probes. In addition, in order to improve the test efficiency, the area of the probe card structure is getting larger and the number of needles required to be implanted on the probe card structure is increasing. When the probe card structure tests the chip, the probes of the probe card structure can contact the pads of the chip to be tested. At this time, the chip will exert a large pressure on the probe card structure, which will affect the service life of the probe card structure.
[0058] Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides a chip testing device.
[0059] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of a chip testing device 1000 according to some embodiments of the present application.
[0060] Please refer toFigure 1 The chip testing device 1000 may include a ceramic substrate 110, a first detection circuit 120, an interconnecting part 200, and a plurality of detection contacts 300.

The support part 112 is disposed on one surface of the substrate body 111, and the first detection circuit 120 is disposed within the substrate body 111. The interconnecting part 200 is located on the surface of the substrate body 111 where the support part 112 is disposed, and at least a part of the side surface 201 of the interconnecting part 200 is connected to the support part 112.

[0061] Exemplarily, the chip testing device 1000 may be a probe card structure.
[0062] The chip testing device 1000 may include a detection circuit. Exemplarily, the detection circuit may be the first detection circuit 120.
[0063] Among them, the support part 112 may be disposed on the first surface 1111 of the substrate body 111.
[0064] The interconnecting part 200 and the support part 112 may be disposed on the same surface of the substrate body 111. Exemplarily, both the interconnecting part 200 and the support part 112 may be disposed on the first surface 1111 of the substrate body 111. Among them, the substrate body 111 may support the interconnecting part 200.
[0065] The detection contact 300 may include a probe 310. Exemplarily, the probe 310 may be welded to the interconnecting line 210 of the interconnecting part 200, for example, by laser-assisted bonding (LAB) (high-temperature solder melting point (m.p.) > 260 °C).
[0066] When testing the chip, the plurality of probes 310 may contact the pads of the chip to be tested, and then the first detection circuit 120 may be electrically connected to the chip to be tested through the interconnecting part 200 and the probes 310.
[0067] The support part 112 may extend along at least a part of the edge of the interconnecting part 200. At this time, at least a part of the side surface 201 of the interconnecting part 200 faces the support part 112 and is connected to the support part 112. Among them, the above at least a part of the side surface 201 may be directly in contact with and connected to the support part 112, or the above at least a part of the side surface 201 may be indirectly connected to the support part 112. At this time, the above at least a part of the side surface 201 may be connected to the support part 112 through other structures.
[0068] Since the support part 112 can be connected to the interconnection part 200, the support part 112 can provide support for the interconnection part 200, thereby improving the support strength of the ceramic substrate 110 for the interconnection part 200. When it is detected that the contact part 300 contacts the pad of the chip to be tested, the interconnection part 200 is impacted and is not easily damaged, and thus the service life of the chip testing device 1000 can be prolonged.
[0069] In some embodiments, the support part 112 is arranged around the interconnection part 200 for one week, thereby increasing the connection area between the support part 112 and the interconnection part 200, and increasing the support strength of the support part 112 for the interconnection part 200.

The first support part 1121 is arranged along the edge of the substrate main body 111 for one week, and the interconnection part 200 is arranged in the first area surrounded by the first support part 1121. At this time, the first support part 1121 and the substrate main body 111 can form a receiving groove, and the interconnection part 200 can be arranged in the receiving groove.
[0071] Of course, when the support part 112 is arranged along a part of the edge of the interconnection part 200, the support part 112 can extend along a part of the edge of the substrate main body 111.
[0072] Figure 2 Another structural diagram of the chip testing device 1000 according to some embodiments of the present application.
[0073] Please refer to Figure 2 , in some embodiments, the number of the interconnection parts 200 is multiple.
[0074] Among them, by arranging multiple interconnection parts 200 in the chip testing device 1000, the chip testing device 1000 can test multiple chips.
[0075] In some examples, multiple interconnection parts 200 can be arranged in the first area surrounded by the first support part 1121. At this time, multiple interconnection parts 200 can be connected to the first support part 1121.
[0076] Among them, a gap can be arranged between two adjacent interconnection parts 200, that is, two adjacent interconnection parts 200 are arranged at intervals.
[0077] In some embodiments, the support part 112 further includes a second support part 1122. The second support part 1122 is arranged in the first area and divides the first area into multiple second areas; one interconnection part 200 is arranged in one second area.
[0078] Among them, the number of the second support parts 1122 can be one or more. Exemplarily, when the number of the second support parts 1122 is one, one second support part 1122 can divide the first area into two second areas. The number of the interconnection parts 200 is two, and the two interconnection parts 200 are respectively arranged in the two second areas.
[0079] When the number of the second support parts 1122 is multiple, the multiple second support parts 1122 can extend along the same direction and be arranged side by side in the first area, thereby dividing the first area into multiple second areas.
[0080] In addition, when the number of the second support parts 1122 is multiple, some of the second support parts 1122 can extend along the first direction, and the rest of the second support parts 1122 can extend along the second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction intersect and are both parallel to the substrate main body 111. Among them, the second support parts 1122 extending along the first direction and the second support parts 1122 extending along the second direction can intersect, thereby dividing the first area into multiple second areas.
[0081] Figure 3 It is another structural diagram of the chip testing device 1000 according to some embodiments.
[0082] Please refer to Figure 3 , in some embodiments, a first gap is formed between the interconnection part 200 and the support part 112. The chip testing device 1000 may further include: a first filling part 700, and the first filling part 700 is arranged in the first gap.

[0084] Among them, the shape of the interconnection part 200 can be designed according to actual needs. At this time, the side surface 201 of the interconnection part 200 can be arranged at an interval from the support part 112. By arranging the first filling part 700 in the first gap between the interconnection part 200 and the support part 112, the support part 112 can be connected to the side surface of the interconnection part 200 through the first filling part 700, so that the support part 112 can provide support for the interconnection part 200 through the first filling part 700.
[0085] Such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, in some embodiments, the interconnecting portion 200 includes an interconnecting line 210 and a dielectric material film layer 220. The dielectric material film layer 220 is disposed on one side of the substrate body 111, and the interconnecting line 210 is disposed within the dielectric material film layer 220. The detection contact 300 is disposed on the side of the dielectric material film layer 220 facing away from the substrate body 111 and is electrically connected to the first detection circuit through the interconnecting line 210.
[0086] Wherein, the dielectric material film layer 220 of the interconnecting portion 200 may include a third surface 221, a fourth surface 222 and side surfaces which are disposed opposite to each other. Among them, the third surface 221 faces the substrate body 111, while the fourth surface 222 faces away from the substrate body 111, and the side surfaces are connected between the third surface 221 and the fourth surface 222. In Figure 1 the provided example, the third surface 221 may be attached to the first surface 1111 of the substrate body 111.
[0087] Wherein, a part of the interconnecting line 210 may be exposed on the fourth surface 222 of the dielectric material film layer 220, and the detection contact 300 may be electrically connected to the part of the interconnecting line 210 exposed on the fourth surface 222.

Thus, the detection contact 300 can be electrically connected to the first detection circuit through the connecting portion 212 and the interconnecting wire 211.
[0089] Wherein, the interconnecting portion 200 may be directly formed on the substrate body 111, thereby simplifying the preparation process of the chip testing device.

[0094] Among them, the part of the side surface of the dielectric material film layer 220 facing the support part 112 is connected to the support part 112 along the third direction F3, so as to improve the support strength of the support part 112 for the dielectric material film layer 220, that is, to improve the support strength of the support part 112 for the interconnection part 200.
[0095] Among them, when the support part 112 includes the first support part 1121, the height H1 of the support part 112 in the third direction F3 is the height of the first support part 1121 in the third direction F3.
[0096] When the support part 112 includes the first support part 1121 and the second support part 1122, the height of the first support part 1121 in the third direction F3 can be equal to the height of the second support part 1122 in the third direction F3.

[0100] Figure 4 It is another structural diagram of the chip testing device 1000 according to some embodiments. Figure 5 It is another structural diagram of the chip testing device 1000 according to some embodiments. Among them, Figure 4 the chip testing device 1000 in Figure 5The chip testing device 1000 in the embodiment includes a plurality of interconnection parts 200 .
[0101] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the interconnection part 200 further includes: a filling layer 230 and an electrical transfer part 240, wherein the electrical transfer part 240 is disposed in the filling layer 230, the filling layer 230 is located between the dielectric material film layer 220 and the substrate body 111, and at least part of the side surface of the filling layer 230 is connected to the support part 112. The interconnection line 210 is electrically connected to the first detection circuit through the electrical transfer part 240.
[0102] The electrical adapter 240 is electrically connected between the interconnection line 210 and the first detection circuit. Therefore, the detection contact member 300 can be electrically connected to the first detection circuit through the interconnection line 210 and the electrical adapter 240 .
[0103] The side of the interconnection part 200 may include the side of the filling layer 230 . In some embodiments, the side of the filling layer 230 is connected to the support part 112 , and the support part 112 can support the interconnection part 200 , thereby improving the supporting strength of the ceramic substrate 110 for the interconnection part 200 .
[0104] The chip detection device 1000 provided in the embodiment of the present application is provided with an electrical transfer part 240, so that the dielectric material film layer 220 and the interconnection line 210 provided in the dielectric material film layer 220 can be formed independently of the ceramic substrate 110. Among them, for the convenience of description, the structure composed of the dielectric material film layer 220 and the interconnection line 210 provided in the dielectric material film layer 220 is defined as an intermediary part. Afterwards, the formed intermediary part can be connected to the first detection circuit 120 in the ceramic substrate 110 through the electrical transfer part 240. In this way, compared with directly forming the intermediary part on the ceramic substrate 110 by photoforming, developing, and electroplating methods, the line width and line spacing of the interconnection line 210 in the intermediary part can be set narrower and denser. Furthermore, when the detection contact member 300 is arranged on the side of the intermediary portion away from the ceramic substrate 110, the setting range of the detection contact member 300 can be larger. For example, the detection contact member 300 can include a plurality of probes 310 arranged at intervals, and the setting range and density of the probes 310 can be increased. In this way, when the chip detection device 1000 is used as a probe card structure, the detection efficiency of the chip can be improved, and because the probe spacing can be better matched with the chip pad spacing, it is also beneficial to improve the reliability of the detection.
[0105] Among them, the filling layer 230 is filled between the ceramic substrate 110 and the intermediate part, and surrounds the electrical transfer part 240. In this embodiment, by providing the filling layer 230, the electrical transfer part 240 can be protected, for example, to prevent moisture erosion, etc., so the connection stability between the intermediate part and the ceramic substrate 110 can be improved.
[0106] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in some embodiments, the electrical transfer part 240 includes a plurality of solder joints 241 arranged at intervals. With such an arrangement, a plurality of solder joints 241 can be used to be soldered to the first detection circuit provided in the ceramic substrate 110, and thus the reliability after connection is high.
[0107] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in some embodiments, a second gap is formed between the dielectric material film layer 220 and the support part 112. The filling layer 230 includes a first part 231 and a second part 232. The first part 231 is located between the dielectric material film layer 220 and the substrate main body 111, and the second part 232 is located in the second gap, wherein the electrical transfer part 240 is arranged in the first part.
[0108] Among them, the second part 232 is located in the second gap between the dielectric material film layer 220 and the support part 112. Furthermore, the support part 112 can support the dielectric material film layer 220 through the second part 232, thereby improving the support strength of the support part 112 for the interconnecting part 200.
[0109] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in some examples, the thickness H3 of the filling layer 230 in the third direction F3 can be less than or equal to the thickness H1 of the support part 112 in the third direction F3. Among them, in the case where the filling layer 230 includes a first part 231 and a second part 232, the thickness H3 of the filling layer 230 in the third direction F3 can be equal to the sum of the thickness of the first part 231 in the third direction F3 and the thickness of the second part 232 in the third direction F3.
[0110] For example, the thickness H3 of the filling layer 230 in the third direction F3 is equal to the thickness H1 of the support part 112 in the third direction F3. With such an arrangement, the support strength provided by the support part 112 to the dielectric material film layer 220 through the second part 232 can be ensured, and thus the support strength of the ceramic substrate 110 for the interconnecting part 200 can be improved.
[0111] Of course, in some other examples, the thickness H3 of the filling layer 230 in the third direction F3 can also be greater than the thickness H1 of the support part 112 in the third direction F3.
[0112] In some examples, the thickness H3 of the filling layer 230 in the third direction F3 may be less than or equal to the thickness H1 of the support portion 112 in the third direction F3, and the thickness of the dielectric material film layer 220 in the third direction F3 may be less than or equal to the thickness of the second portion 232 in the third direction F3. With such a setting, the support strength provided by the support portion 112 to the dielectric material film layer 220 through the second portion 232 can be ensured, and thus the support strength of the ceramic substrate 110 for the interconnect portion 200 can be improved.
[0113] Of course, in some other examples, the thickness of the dielectric material film layer 220 in the third direction F3 may be greater than the thickness of the second portion 232 in the third direction F3.

[0115] Among them, the detection contact 300 can be pre-formed and then transferred to the surface of the interconnect portion 200 facing away from the substrate body 111. At this time, the alignment marks 600 are required to ensure that the detection contact 300 can be transferred to the designated position.
[0116] In the related art, the alignment marks 600 are disposed on the dielectric material film layer 220, and the dielectric material film layer 220 will shrink, resulting in a change in the position of the alignment marks 600, and further resulting in an offset in the position of the detection contact 300.
[0117] In the embodiments of the present application, by disposing the alignment marks 600 on the support portion 112, the position of the support portion 112 will not change, and thus the position of the alignment marks 600 will not change, thereby improving the transfer accuracy of the detection contact 300.
[0118] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , in some embodiments, an alignment mark 600 is disposed on each side of the interconnect portion 200 in the first direction.

Among them, the two alignment marks 600 corresponding to one interconnect portion 200 can be respectively located on both sides of the interconnect portion 200 in the first direction, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, and the direction indicated by the arrow F1 is the first direction F1.
[0120] Such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, when the support part 112 includes the first support part 1121, the alignment mark 600 can be set on a surface of the first support part 1121 facing away from the substrate body 111.
[0121] As Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, when the support part 112 includes the first support part 1121 and the second support part 1122, part of the alignment marks 600 can be set on the first support part 1121, and the remaining part of the alignment marks 600 can be set on the second support part 1122.
[0122] In Figure 2 one of the two alignment marks 600 corresponding to one interconnect part 200 is located on the first support part 1121, and the other is located on the second support part 1122.
[0123] In Figure 5 one of the two alignment marks 600 corresponding to part of the interconnect parts 200 is located on the first support part 1121, and the other is located on the second support part 1122, and the two alignment marks 600 corresponding to the remaining part of the interconnect parts 200 are both located on the second support part 1122.
[0124] Among them, two alignment marks 600 are configured for each interconnect part 200, so as to improve the transfer accuracy of the detection contact 300.
[0125] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , in some embodiments, the detection circuit can include a first detection circuit 120 and a second detection circuit, and the chip testing device 1000 can also include a printed circuit board 400, and the printed circuit board 400 is arranged on the surface of the substrate body 111 facing away from the support part 112. For example, the substrate body 111 can include a first surface 1111 and a second surface 1112 arranged opposite to each other, wherein the support part 112 can be arranged on the first surface 1111, and the printed circuit board 400 can be located on the second surface 1112 of the substrate body 111.
[0126] The printed circuit board 400 can include a printed board body and a second detection circuit, wherein the second detection circuit can be arranged in the printed board body, and at this time, the second detection circuit is electrically connected to the first detection circuit 120.
[0127] For example, the first detection circuit 120 can include a connection circuit 121, and the connection circuit 121 can be arranged in the substrate body 111.
[0128] In addition, in order to facilitate the movement of the chip testing device 1000, a mounting frame 500 can also be arranged on the side of the printed circuit board 400 facing away from the ceramic substrate 110, and the structure of the mounting frame 500 can be as Figure 1As shown, the mounting bracket 500 can be connected only to a part of the surface on the side of the printed circuit board 400 facing away from the ceramic substrate 110. In this way, it is beneficial to reduce the use of materials, save costs, and can stably and reliably move the chip testing device 1000 through the mounting bracket 500. Exemplarily, a boss 510 can be formed on the side of the mounting bracket 500 facing away from the printed circuit board 400, which is convenient for the manipulator to grasp. In this way, when the chip testing device 1000 is a probe card structure, it is convenient to apply it to a chip detection system composed of testing equipment such as a probe station.
