  • Method and apparatus for electrical testing
    Patent number: 7777509
    Abstract: A test apparatus and device under test has a probe that can be located very close to contact pads and that requires very few solder connections. In addition, the probe can be configured to meet any appropriate and desired electrical specification while still using a same circuit board. There is no need to attach discrete components to a circuit board. Thus, by using a configurable probe, a single circuit board may be used with multiple probes or a reconfigurable probe to test for compliance with a variety of different electrical specifications having different requirements.
