Abstract
A method for fabricating a compliant membrane probe for communication with an integrated circuit includes installing an array of conductive structures within a flexible membrane, the conductors comprising a beam structure having a first end and a second end, with each one of the conductors further comprising a probe tip extending from the first end, the probe tip having a throat generally surrounded by material of the flexible membrane and a head at an end of the throat such that the head is disposed at an opposite side of the flexible membrane with respect to the beam structure; and configuring the second end of the beam structure so as to be supported by a first end of the beam structure of an adjacent conductor thereto.
