Abstract: An electrical connection device includes: a wiring board in which lands are arranged on a main surface; and probes. Each of the probes has a distal end portion that contacts an object to be measured and a proximal end portion that contacts the land. A material of a surface film of the proximal end portion, which contacts the land, is a metal material different in composition from a material of the land that contacts the surface film.

Abstract: An electrical connecting device (1) includes probes (10), and a probe head (20) including a middle guide plate (23) arranged between a top guide plate (21) and a bottom guide plate (22) and closer to the bottom guide plate (22) so as to lead the probes (10) to penetrate therethrough. The top guide plate (21) and the middle guide plate (23) are provided with guide holes through which the probes (10) are inserted at positions shifted between the top guide plate (21) and the middle guide plate (23) so as to lead the probes (10) to be held in a bent state between the top guide plate (21) and the middle guide plate (23). The probes (10) have a structure easier to bend at a region excluding a maximum stress part than at the maximum stress part defined at a position at which a maximum stress is applied to the probes (10) buckled when tip end parts of the probes (10) are brought into contact with an inspection object.

Abstract: A probe for current test is provided. The probe includes a probe body having a plate-like connection portion whose end face becomes a connection face to a probe board, a solder layer formed on at least one side face of said connection portion, and a guide portion formed on the connection portion. The guide portion penetrates the connection portion in its thickness direction from the one side face with the solder layer formed to the other side face. When the solder layer is melted, the guide portion guides a portion of the melted solder to the other side face.

Abstract: The present invention provides a probe manufacturing method in which, after a metal material for a probe is deposited on a base table, the probe can be detached from the base table relatively easily. A sacrificial layer is formed on a base table. The sacrificial layer is partially removed so as to form a recess in the sacrificial layer. A mask that exposes an area formed in a desired probe flat surface shape containing the recess is formed on the sacrificial layer. A probe material exhibiting different etching resistance characteristics from those of the sacrificial layer is deposited in the area exposed from the mask. By the deposition of the material, a coupling portion corresponding to the recess and a probe that is integral with the coupling portion are formed. After the mask is removed, the sacrificial layer is removed with use of etchant. Thereafter, the probe held on the base table at the coupling portion is detached from the base table together with the coupling portion.

Abstract: A probe tip section of an electrical test probe has a laminated structure consisting of a first deposition portion and a second deposition portion covering the first deposition portion, and by the laminated structure, a maximum cross-sectional area portion at which the cross-sectional area of the probe tip section is increased to a base portion is provided between a tip end of the probe tip section and the base portion in the probe tip section. At the maximum cross-sectional area portion, a dimension in the X direction as seen on a flat surface perpendicular to a protruding direction of the probe tip section is increased in a one-dimensional way, and in addition, a dimension in the Y direction perpendicular to the X direction is increased from the tip end toward the base portion, as a result of which the cross-sectional area of the probe tip section can be increased in a two-dimensional way.

Abstract: A probe formed on a base table is detached from the base table without giving damage on the probe. The present invention provides a probe manufacturing method comprising the steps of forming on a sacrificial layer on a base table a recess exposing the sacrificial layer with a resist, depositing a probe material in the recess to form a probe and then removing the resist, leaving part of the sacrificial layer and removing the rest by an etching process, and detaching from the base table the probe held on the base table by the remaining part of the sacrificial layer. In the recess of the resist are formed a main body part corresponding to a flat surface shape of the probe and an auxiliary part continuing into the main body part. The probe is formed by deposition of the material at the main body part, and a holding portion is formed by deposition of the material at the auxiliary part.

The tip region has a pedestal portion integrally continuous to a lower edge portion at the front end side of the arm region and having an underside inclined to an imaginary axis extending in the vertical direction; and a contact portion projected from the underside of the pedestal portion and having a tip orthogonal to an imaginary axis. Thus, the position of the tip can be accurately determined.

Abstract: A probe for electrical test comprises a plate-shaped main portion having a base end to be attached to a support board and a tip end opposite the base end, and a probe tip portion arranged at the tip end of the main portion and having a probe tip to contact an electrode of a device under test, the main portion being made of a tenacity material. The main portion includes a conductive material extending from the base end to the tip end and at least part of which is buried within the tenacity material, and the tenacity material has higher resiliency than that of the conductive material while the conductive material has higher conductivity than that of the tenacity material. As a result, disorder of a signal provided via the probe is decreased without losing elastic deformation.
