摘要： A probe apparatus includes a holding frame holding a test head through a biasing unit biasing the test head. An annular member is rotatably mounted in an opening of a ceiling plate of a main body. Cam followers are rotatably provided circumferentially on the annular member. An intermediate connecting member is provided in a lower surface of the test head, for bringing the test head into electrical contact with an upper surface of the probe card. Protrusions for guiding the cam followers are provided corresponding thereto at an outer periphery of the intermediate connecting member, upper surfaces of the protrusions being inclined. The cam followers are moved relatively upward along the respective inclined surfaces of the protrusions by rotating the annular member so that the intermediate connecting member is pushed downward against a biasing force of the biasing unit to bring the test head into press-contact with the probe card.

摘要： A probe apparatus for examining an electrical characteristic of IC chips formed on a semiconductor wafer has a work table provided in a casing and a probe card provided above the work table. The probe card is detachably attached to an insert ring supported by the casing. A card exchanging mechanism for automatically attaching and detaching the probe card to and from the insert ring is provided. The card exchanging mechanism has a tray for mounting the probe card and transferring the-probe card. The tray is changeable at an initial position outside the casing between a usable state where the tray is horizontally expanded and an unusable state where the tray is vertically folded. An opening/closing cover is provided to cover the tray in the unusable state.

摘要： A probe card attaching mechanism fits a probe card to a prober that checks electric characteristics of an object to be tested (e.g., an integrated circuit formed on a semiconductor wafer). The probe card has measurement contactors which are to be brought into contact with the electrodes of the object. The probe card attaching mechanism is provided with a fixing ring, a ring-like card holder, and a lock ring. The fixing ring is secured at an opening section that is on top of the casing of the prober. The fixing ring has a reference surface on the lower side thereof. The card holder is adapted to hold the probe card. The card holder has a reference surface on the upper side and a number of driven portions of cam mechanisms on the outer circumference. The lock ring is provided on the lower side of the fixing ring and is rotatable in both a normal direction and a reverse direction. The lock ring has driving portions of the cam mechanisms, and the driving portions cooperate with the driven portions of the card holder. In accordance with the rotation of the lock ring, its driving portions raise the driven portions of the card holder. Accordingly, the reference surface of the card holder is pressed tightly against the reference surface of the fixing ring, and the card holder is made immovable thereby.
