  • Publication number: 20120049878
    Abstract: A probe card structure adaptable to different test apparatuses of different specifications includes a probe card adapted to a first specification, a reinforcement member adapted to a second specification and a specification conversion interface unit disposed between the probe card and the reinforcement member. The probe card without the specification conversion interface unit can be directly mounted on a test apparatus of the first specification by means of a reinforcement member of the first specification to carry out the test process. Alternatively, the specification conversion interface unit can be combined with the probe card to convert the probe card from the first specification to the second specification. Accordingly, the probe card of the second specification can be mounted on a test apparatus of the second specification by means of the reinforcement member of the second specification to carry out the test process.
