Abstract
In the present invention, an inspection contact structure is attached to a lower surface side of a circuit board of a probe card. The inspection contact structure has a silicon substrate, and sheets attached to upper and lower surfaces of the silicon substrate. Each of the sheets is elastic and has conductive portions in a projecting shape. The silicon substrate is formed with current-carrying paths passing through the substrate in a vertical direction so that the conductive portions of the sheets and the current-carrying paths of the silicon substrate are in contact with each other. The upper and lower sheets are fixed to the silicon substrate, and the sheet on the upper surface is fixed to a circuit board.
