For example, integrated circuits vary in size and require various interfaces to accommodate different sizes of gastric integrated circuits. Usually if the user wants to test a new or different integrated circuit, it is necessary to obtain an interface suitable for the integrated circuit. In packaging testing, most of these interfaces are typically molded plastics such as injection molded and are pressed into a specific size and structure suitable for the integrated circuit to be tested; but the design is disturbing It is costly to manufacture such interfaces between 6 1364, 845 17408 pif.doc, especially for the high-speed semiconductor industry. In addition, an interface is required for each different integrated circuit test, which also increases the cost of the user. 1X1 » | ^ one ---- It is necessary to propose an interconnection device to make up for the shortcomings of the previous interface device.

According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the device is constructed from a set of ', and assembled parts. These parts can be made of materials such as stainless steel, polyacetone (PEEK) or polyamideimide (Torlon). These components have the ability to test the fixed, aligned, and electrical contacts required for the integrated circuit in a manual or automated test equipment (ATE) environment. The invention proposes a test scheme suitable for various integrated circuit structures. In addition, the materials selected can be manufactured with high precision at relatively low cost, and their parts can be permanently stored under appropriate storage conditions such as vacuum packaging. With the implementation of the present invention, the test window is determined according to the package geometry. The contact window design is no longer dependent on 3 to 4 custom-machined parts: according to the design of the assembly, it can be combined with the printed circuit. = printed circuit board) together form a contact window test box, the size and geometry of which can be arbitrarily adjusted.

Graphics without having to remove them from the load board or test machine. In addition, the test set is suitable for a variety of load boards using modular technology (m〇duiar 8 1364845 17408pif.doc technology). The present invention provides a test solution that is adaptable to the chipset series (Chip_set famiiy). The invention also shortens the test machine debugging time. Moreover, the present invention significantly reduces the overall cost of the Jingyue Group by reducing the equipment required for testing. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the test apparatus allows an end user to test a full range of chipsets using an area adjustable slot. Usually this test requires multiple slot designs. An angular positioning block (such as an angular cam stop) configured along the diagonal can be adjusted using a special tool such as a self-locking cam. The modular design concept allows the test device to be reconfigured to accommodate larger or smaller wafer sets by simply replacing a pin cartridge (ie, the pedestal). According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the interconnection device surrounds a set of 5 to 10 shoulder spring probes ("sh〇ulder", type spring pin), which is suitable for a 2 grid array (BGA), flat Lattice Array (LGA) and leadless quad flat no-pin (QFN) or quad flat (QFP) package components. This device allows for precise area adjustment for the package size increments seen in most wafer packages. There is no need to remove from the loading plate. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the interconnection device is also available in metric units for use in metric units to expand applications in Europe and Asia. 〇〇, it provides a test element; after the installation of Jiji Thunder a #, &lt;, , .

Figure 1B is an exploded view of the interconnection device 1A. The interconnection device 1A includes a base 102 (i.e., a probe cartridge 102), an angular cam stop 1〇4a and 104b, adjustment mechanisms l6a and 106b (such as cams 1〇63 and 106b), fittings 108a to 108d' fasteners ii〇a~u〇h, and nuts U2a and U2b. Usually 'angular cams The blocks i〇4a and i〇4b are detachably connected to the base 1〇2 to define an area (ie, a defined area) on the base 102 for testing in which the component under test is embedded. a~u〇h (such as a fixing screw) detachably couples the accessories l〇8a~108d with the base 1〇2 and fixes the base 102 to the test machine (eg, through a printed circuit board -_ _ _ or similar elements. The adjustment mechanisms 106a and 106b are coupled to the fitting i 8d and the nut 112b and the fitting 10b and the nut 112a, respectively. In operation, the rotating nut 112a and / or 112b are separately adjusted The mechanisms i 〇 6a and i 〇 6b are adjusted to change the size of the finite area 105. FIG. 2A is a top view of the interconnection device 1 ' FIG. Figure 3A is a schematic view of the pedestal 1 〇 2 of the interconnecting device 1 .

The pedestal 1 〇 2 includes an upper part i 〇 2a and a lower part 102 b, It may be made, for example, of a polymeric material such as a molded plastic. A plurality of through holes are provided in respective regions l〇5a and 105b of each of the upper part 102a and the lower part 102b. The side of the 17408pif.doc J contact window and the tester (on the other side of the pedestal 1 〇 2) are electrically connected through these through holes. Several probes have only described - probes only. As shown in Fig. 3B, the upper f = see '^ _ through the m and the probe (four) close the ^ and the lower part in the test operation 'when applying the force on the measuring element (already placed on the base)' part The force is transmitted to the pedestal, and the electrical contact window of the tester is tested (ie, the probe is connected through the pedestal through the pedestal.) Figure 4A is a top view of the susceptor 102, and Figure 4b is shown as The side H ^ portion t lG2a and the lower member 1G2b can be made, for example, by the same type (EEK) or antistatic polyetheretherketone (pEEKESD). The edge of the figure 5 is shown as a perspective view of the part below the base 102, which is more The situation of the through holes in the area is described in a clear manner. In addition, Figure 5 depicts the falcon position lock 122. The locating pin 122 passes through the corresponding pre-positioning hole in the lower part leg of the upper part 10 to position the two The fixing can also be used to position the corresponding preset holes in the upper part 102a. Figure 6A shows a top view of the component legs below the base 102, and Figure 6B shows a side view thereof. 7 is a schematic exploded view of the alignment mechanism 12A according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The alignment mechanism 120 functions as a connection. The alignment mechanism 12 is illustrated by FIG. 1B. Some parts, including the corner cam block 1〇4a, the fitting brain, the nut 112b, and the adjusting mechanism 106a. Of course, as long as it is advantageous to adjust the shape of the 1364845 17408pif.doc stored in the area of the semiconductor component, other pairs may be replaced. As shown in Fig. 7, the angular cam stop 104a includes a resilient surface 107 in contact with the component under test. Since the surface 1〇7 is elastic, it can be in contact with (and position) several components of different sizes. Further, as described above, by rotating the nut 112b (and the adjustment mechanism 106a), the elastic surface 107 can move inward or outward, changing the size of the defined area 105 of the base on the base 102. Thereby adapting to a wide range of component sizes. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, adjusting a pair of adjustment mechanisms (such as adjustment mechanisms i〇6a and i〇6b as shown in Fig. 1B) can change region 105 to accommodate The component size varies between 2 mm (eg, an element having a size of 18 to 2 mm). For example, the angular cam stops 104a and 104b (including the elastic surface 1〇7) may be a polyetheretherketone component, an adjustment mechanism 6a and i〇6b may be self-locking cam actuating mechanisms having a predetermined stroke (e.g., 0.053 〃/180.) Figure 8A is a plan view of the alignment mechanism 120, and Figure 8B is shown as a φ-alignment mechanism 12〇 The front view, Figure 8C, is a side view of the alignment mechanism 120. In practical applications, the interconnect device proposed by the present invention overcomes many of the deficiencies of the prior art. For example, multiple different sized bases can be used. 2 and other parts of the interconnection device 100 (i.e., the angular cam stops 1 〇 4a and 1 〇 4b, the adjustment mechanisms 106a and 106b, the fittings 8a 8a to 8d, the fasteners 11a to 110h, and the nut 112a) Connected to 112b). For example, the base 1〇2 is mainly composed of two parts of molded plastic (ie, upper part 102&amp; and lower part 1〇2b) 12 1364845 ί 740δρ/£ ci〇c. A plurality of different pedestals (e.g., pedestals having different sizes, different through holes and geometries) may be pressed, each pedestal being the same as the interconnecting device 1 (i.e., angular cam stops 104a and 104b, The adjustment mechanisms 106a and 106b's fittings 8a to 108d' fasteners 110a to 11 Oh, and the nuts 112a and 112b are used in combination. In addition, some of the remaining parts of the interconnect device 100 (such as the angular cam block l (Ma and ICHb ' and the accessories l 8a ~ l 8d) can be made of metal. Compared with plastic, the strength of the metal is large, Rigidity is good, so these zeros can be made relatively small, which is of paramount importance in the semiconductor industry. Aside from the interconnection device of the present invention, some prior systems employ a compression molding with a fixed pocket. The 谬 interface allows the component under test to be fixed by the recess to limit the rotation of the component under test or its molded plastic interface to the drum, and for each need - no face. The present invention compensates for the above drawbacks, = two-connected device ' Θ Interconnect devices contain a wide range of standard parts that can be used with a variety of components. In addition, components such as packaged components or components (such as components or blocks or components or packages with different pedestals with the rest of the components) Match), you can use 'different pedestal parts (applicable to 'the number of parts has been prepared for the stress distribution.
