A probe card device and a self-aligned probe are provided. The self-aligned probe includes a fixing end portion configured to be abutted against a space transformer, a testing end portion configured to detachably abut against a device under test (DUT), a first connection portion connected to the fixing end portion, a second connection portion connected to the testing end portion, and an arced portion that connects the first connection portion and the second connection portion. The fixing end portion and the testing end portion jointly define a reference line passing there-through. The first connection portion has an aligned protrusion, and a maximum distance between the arced portion and the reference line is greater than 75 &#x3bc;m and is less than 150 &#x3bc;m.

Probe card device and self-aligned probe

A probe card device and a dual-arm probe are provided. The dual-arm probe has a probe length, and includes a bifurcation end portion and a testing end portion. The dual-arm probe has two broad side surfaces respectively arranged on two opposite sides thereof. The dual-arm probe has a separation slot that is recessed from a bifurcation opening of the bifurcation end portion toward the testing end portion and that penetrates from one of the two broad side surfaces to the other one, so that two branch arms of the dual-arm probe are defined by the separation slot and are spaced apart from each other. The separation slot has a slot length being 50% to 90% of the probe length. In a cross section of the two branch arms, an area of any one of the two branch arms is 90% to 110% of that of the other one.

Probe card device and dual-arm probe

A probe card device and a spring-like probe are provided. The spring-like probe defines a longitudinal direction and a separation plane that is parallel to the longitudinal direction, and includes a fixing end portion, a testing end portion, and two stroke arms that are arranged between the fixing end portion and the testing end portion. The two stroke arms are spaced apart from each other and are respectively located at two opposite sides of the separation plane. Each of the two stroke arms is in a curved shape. Two projection regions defined by orthogonally projecting the two stroke arms onto the separation plane have at least one intersection point. In a cross section of the two stroke arms perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, an area of any one of the two stroke arms is 95% to 105% of an area of another one of the two stroke arms.
