  • Publication number: 20080079450
    Abstract: An intelligent probe chip or probe head can include design-for-test (DFT) circuitry that would otherwise be required in a device being tested and/or implement testing functions so that less-expensive automated test equipment (ATE) can test the device. Further, the probe chip or probe head can generate high frequency signals, avoiding the need to transmit high frequency signals the longer distance from the ATE.
