Abstract
A probe loader device includes a carrier board, a three-dimensional stepped structure and a probe module having a plurality of probe pin layers separately stacked together in three-dimensional stepped structure. The three-dimensional stepped structure is connected to the carrier board. Each of the probe pin layers includes a plurality of cantilever probes. The cantilever probes respectively extend outwards from different steps of the three-dimensional stepped structure, and physical touch a plurality of electrical contacts of a DUT. A portion of each of the cantilever probes extending outwards from the three-dimensional stepped structure has a moment length, and the moment lengths of the cantilever probes of the different probe pin layers are the same.
