Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of probe tables, and specifically relates to a probe table dotting device with uniform dotting. Background Technique

[0002] There are multiple chip grains on a semiconductor wafer. The chip grains are divided into good grains and bad grains. Bad grains cannot be used for subsequent chip production. Therefore, it is necessary to test the chip grains on the wafer to distinguish good grains and bad grains. Usually, a probe table is used to test the wafer. The probe table is mainly applied to the testing of the semiconductor industry, optoelectronic industry, integrated circuits, and packaging.

[0003] The commonly used probe tables currently include a machine body, a dotting device, and a placement table for the wafer. The wafer to be tested is placed on the placement table, and the dotting device is started. The dotting device dots the bad grains on the wafer. When the wafer completes the test, the ink dots on the wafer represent that the chip grains corresponding to the ink dots are bad grains.

[0004] For the above technical conditions, there are still defects that the dotting force of the dotting device of the current probe table is insufficient, so that the ink dots punched by the dotting device on the wafer are not uniform enough, and even missed dots occur.

[0005] Based on this, the utility model designs a probe table dotting device with uniform dotting to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a probe table dotting device with uniform dotting to solve the above technical problems.

The mounting block is fixedly provided with a coil. A moving rod is inserted into the coil. The moving rod is fixedly connected with a fixed block. The limiting component abuts against the fixed block. A magnet is arranged on the fixed block. The moving rod is sleeved with a first spring. One end of the first spring abuts against the fixed block, and the other end of the first spring abuts against the coil. The mounting frame is fixedly provided with a connecting block. The connecting block is below the mounting block. The connecting block is fixedly provided with an ink cartridge. The connecting block is fixedly connected with a needle head. The needle head is communicated with the ink cartridge. The moving rod is fixedly connected with an ink line. The ink line sequentially passes through the coil, the ink cartridge and is located in the needle head.

[0008] Preferably, the magnet is in a semi-circular shape.

[0022] The following is a further detailed description of this application Figures 1-4 in conjunction with the attached drawings.

[0023] A dotting device for a probe station with uniform dotting, including a dotting device. The dotting device is arranged on the body of the probe station. The dotting device includes a base 17, a mounting frame 16 and a needle 12. The base 17 is fixedly arranged on the body of the probe station. The mounting frame 16 is fixedly arranged on the base 17. A limit component is arranged on the mounting frame 16. A mounting block 8 is fixedly arranged on the mounting frame 16. A coil 7 is fixedly arranged on the mounting block 8. The mounting block 8 serves to fix the coil 7.

[0024] A moving rod 5 is inserted into the coil 7. A fixed block 3 is fixedly arranged at one end of the moving rod 5 away from the coil 7. The limit component abuts against the fixed block 3. A fixing groove is opened on one side of the fixed block 3 away from the coil 7. A magnet 1 is installed in the fixing groove. The fixing groove prevents the magnet 1 from falling off the fixed block 3 easily. The magnet 1 is in a semi-circular shape. The N pole of the magnet 1 faces away from the fixed block 3, and the S pole of the magnet 1 faces the fixed block 3. The magnet 1 generates a magnetic force downward 5.

[0025] A first spring 4 is sleeved on the moving rod 5. The first spring 4 is between the fixed block 3 and the coil 7. One end of the first spring 4 abuts against the fixed block 3, and the other end of the first spring 4 abuts against the coil 7. A connecting block 11 is fixedly arranged on the mounting frame 16. The connecting block 11 is below the mounting block 8. A marking gauge 10 is fixedly arranged on the connecting block 11. The connecting block 11 serves to fix the marking gauge 10. A needle 12 is fixedly arranged on the side of the connecting block 11 away from the marking gauge 10. The needle 12 communicates with the marking gauge 10. The moving rod 5 is fixedly provided with an ink line 9. The ink line 9 sequentially passes through the coil 7, the marking gauge 10 and is located in the needle 12.

[0026] An alternating current is applied to the coil 7. The coil 7 generates upward and downward magnetic forces. Under the action of the magnetic forces, the moving rod 5 moves up and down. The ink line 9 moves up and down along with the moving rod 5. During the up and down movement of the ink line 9, the ink in the marking gauge 10 is brought towards the needle 12, and the needle 12 leaves ink dots on the wafer.

[0027] A mounting plate 6 is fixedly connected to the mounting block 8. The mounting plate 6 is integrally formed with the mounting block 8. A limiting groove 18 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 6 close to the magnet 1. The moving rod 5 is fixedly connected with a limiting rod 2. The limiting rod 2 is inserted into the limiting groove 18. When the moving rod 5 moves up and down, under the limiting action of the limiting rod 2 and the limiting groove 18, the moving rod 5 is not prone to sway left and right, improving the moving stability of the moving rod 5.

[0028] The limiting component includes a limiting block 13 and a threaded rod 15. The threaded rod 15 is fixedly arranged on the mounting frame 16. The limiting block 13 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 15. A second spring 14 is sleeved on the threaded rod 15. The second spring 14 is between the limiting block 13 and the mounting frame 16. One end of the second spring 14 abuts against the limiting block 13, and the other end of the second spring 14 abuts against the mounting frame 16. The limiting block 13 abuts against the fixed block 3. By adjusting the position of the limiting block 13 on the threaded rod 15, the moving range of the moving rod 5 can be restricted, thereby having a certain restriction on the dotting force of the ink line 9.

[0029] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: When performing a dotting test on the wafer, an alternating current is applied to the coil 7. The coil 7 generates an upward or downward magnetic force as the current changes. Under the action of the magnetic force, the moving rod 5 moves up and down. The ink line 9 moves up and down along with the moving rod 5. During the up and down movement of the ink line 9, the ink in the marking gauge 10 is brought towards the needle 12, thereby leaving ink dots on the defective grains of the wafer. At the same time, the magnet 1 generates a downward magnetic force acting on the moving rod 5. When the moving rod 5 drives the ink line 9 to move downward, the moving rod 5 and the ink line 9 are jointly affected by the two magnetic forces generated by the magnet 1 and the coil 7, making the dotting force of the ink line 9 greater and more stable, the ink dots printed on the wafer more uniform, and less prone to the phenomenon of missing dots, achieving the effect of making the dotting of the wafer by the dotting device more uniform and less prone to missing dots.
