摘要： An interconnect is provided for making electrical connections with a semiconductor die. The interconnect includes a substrate having integrally formed contact members, configured to electrically contact corresponding contact locations on the die. The interconnect also includes a pattern of conductors formed separately from the substrate, and then bonded to the substrate, in electrical communication with the contact members. The conductors can be mounted to a multi layered tape similar to TAB tape, or alternately bonded directly to the substrate. In addition, each conductor can include an opening aligned with a corresponding contact member, and filled with a conductive material, such as a conductive adhesive or solder. The conductive material electrically connects the contact members and conductors, and provides an expansion joint to allow expansion of the conductors without stressing the contact members. Also provided are a system for testing dice that includes the interconnect, and a system for testing wafers wherein the interconnect is formed as a probe card.

摘要： A method, apparatus and system for testing semiconductor wafers are provided. The method includes providing a wafer carrier to provide an electrical path for receiving and transmitting test signals to the wafer. The wafer carrier includes a base for retaining the wafer, and an interconnect having contact members configured to establish electrical communication with contact locations on the wafer. The wafer carrier can include one or more compressible spring members configured to bias the wafer and interconnect together in the assembled carrier. The wafer carrier can be assembled, with the wafer in alignment with the interconnect, using optical alignment techniques, and an assembly tool similar to aligner bonder tools used for flip chip bonding semiconductor dice. A system for use with the carrier can include a testing apparatus configured to apply test signals through the carrier to the wafer while the wafer is subjected to temperature cycling.

摘要： An interconnect and system for establishing temporary electrical communication with semiconductor components having contact bumps are provided. The interconnect includes a substrate with patterns of contact members adapted to electrically contact the contact bumps. The substrate can be formed of a material such as ceramic, silicon, FR-4, or photo-chemically machineable glass. The contact members can be formed as recesses covered with conductive layers in electrical communication with conductors and terminal contacts on the substrate. Alternately, the contact members can be formed as projections adapted to penetrate the contact bumps, as microbumps with a rough textured surface, or as a deposited layer formed with recesses. The interconnect can be employed in a wafer level test system for testing dice contained on a wafer, or in a die level test system for testing bare bumped dice or bumped chip scale packages.

摘要： An inventive method in an integrated circuit (IC) manufacturing process for using data regarding repair procedures conducted on IC's at probe to determine whether any further repairs will be conducted later in the manufacturing process includes storing the data in association with a fuse ID of each of the IC's. The ID codes of the IC's are automatically read, for example, at an opens/shorts test during the manufacturing process. The data stored in association with the ID codes of the IC's is then accessed, and additional repair procedures the IC's may undergo are selected in accordance with the accessed data. Thus, for example, the accessed data may indicate that an IC is unrepairable, so the IC can proceed directly to a scrap bin without having to be queried to determine whether it is repairable, as is necessary in traditional IC manufacturing processes.
