A probe card and a wafer testing assembly thereof are provided. The wafer testing assembly includes a printed circuit board, a space transformer, a plurality of copper pillars and a plurality of strengthening structure units. The printed circuit board includes a bottom surface and a plurality of first contacts arranged on the bottom surface. The space transformer includes a top surface and a plurality of second contacts. The second contacts are arranged on the top surface and corresponding to the first contacts. The copper pillars are respectively arranged between the first contacts and the second contacts. Two ends of each of the copper pillars are respectively electrically connected to the first contacts and the second contacts. The strengthening structure units are arranged on the bottom surface of the printed circuit board and respectively surrounding the copper pillars.

Probe card and wafer testing assembly thereof

A trace embedded probe device includes a circuit board including an insulating layer unit whose upper surface has first recesses and a second recess located therebetween, grounding traces and a signal trace whose trace main bodies are disposed in the recesses respectively and flush in elevation with the upper surface, and a grounding layer disposed on a lower surface of the insulating layer unit and connected with the grounding traces by conductive vias penetrating through the first recesses and the lower surface and provided therein with conductive layers. The trace main bodies, grounding layer and conductive layers are made of a same metal material. Probes are disposed on the grounding and signal traces respectively. The probe device is easy in control of distance, width, thickness and surface roughness of the traces, and beneficial to achieve the requirements of thin copper traces, fine pitch and high frequency testing.

Trace embedded probe device

A probe head includes a probe seat, a first spring probe penetrating through upper, middle and lower dies of the probe seat for transmitting a first test signal, and at least two shorter second spring probes penetrating through the lower die for transmitting a second test signal with higher frequency. Two second spring probes are electrically connected in a way that top ends thereof are abutted against two electrically conductive contacts on a bottom surface of the middle die electrically connected by a connecting circuit therein. The lower die has a communicating space and at least two lower installation holes communicating therewith and each accommodating a second spring probe partially located in the communicating space. The probe head is adapted for concurrent high and medium or low frequency signal tests, meets fine pitch and high frequency testing requirements and prevents probe cards from too complicated circuit design.
