A probe head for testing semiconductor wafers has a probe contactor substrate have a first side and a second side. A plurality of probe contactor tips are coupled to the first side and the plurality of tips lie in a first plane. A plurality of mounting structures are coupled to the second side with each of the mounting structures each having a top surface lying in a second plane, wherein the first plane is substantially parallel to the second plane.

Probe head with machine mounting pads and method of forming same

A probe card assembly has a probe contactor substrate having a plurality of probe contactor tips thereon and a probe card wiring board with an interposer disposed between the two. Support posts contacting the probe contactor substrate are vertically adjustable until secured by a locking mechanism which is coupled to the probe card wiring board. When the posts are secured in a fixed position, the position is one in which the plane of the plurality of probe contactor substrates is substantially parallel to a predetermined reference plane.
