Abstract
A probe card fits in a system for testing a micro-electro-mechanical device having an element sensitive to a magnetic field. The probe card is formed by a PCB having a through-opening and probe tips for electrically contacting the micro-electro-mechanical device. A housing structure is received within the through-opening. The housing structure includes a planar peripheral region surrounding seats that protrude and extend at least partly into the through-opening. Magnetic elements are arranged in the seats, with the magnetic elements configured to generate a test magnetic field for testing operation of the micro-electro-mechanical device.
