| abstract | A probe (1) for making electrical connections to the legs (3) of an already mounted integrated circuit (4) carries rows (2) of tapered wedges (8). The wedges within a row are spaced apart by an amount that corresponds to the width of the IC's legs. For n-many legs on a side of the IC there are n + 1 corresponding wedges, which then have n-many intervening spaces. As the positioned probe is pressed down the spaces between the wedges receive the legs of the IC, and wedges become wedged between the IC's legs. Each wedge has left and right conductive surfaces (22) separated by an insulator (19,20,21). Each leg of the IC has a wedge to its left and a wedge to it right. Within the probe the right-hand conductive surface of the wedge to the left of a leg, and the lefthand conductive surface of the wedge to the right of that leg, are electrically connected together. Thus, the probe makes electrical contact to each leg in two places. The tapered wedges are of Ni- and Au-plated BeCu separated by acrylic adhesive and Kapton. Acrylic adhesive and Kapton are also used as the spacer between wedges. The rows of wedges (48-51) are cemented to a mantle (52). A lead frame (59) soldered to the butt end of the wedges connects opposing surfaces of adjacent wedges and makes the interconnection between the rows of wedges and an array of pins (61) in a pin block (60) at the top of the probe. Sticks of coplanar wedges are made by laminating layers of material in a press. The taper of the wedge tip arises from layers of shorter length in conjunction with a shaped surface in the laminating press N + 1 sticks are laminated together with intervening spacers to form a stack from which rows of n + 1 wedges may be removed. |
