Abstract

See full text

A planarity verification system for proper positioning of testing probes comprises a plurality of electrical leads configured for connection to testing probes, an indicator electrically coupled to each of the leads, and a power source. One of the power source terminals is electrically coupled to the leads through the indicators and the other terminal is electrically coupled to a metalized surface such as a wafer to bias the surface. Each electrical lead forms part of a completed current path between the power source terminals when a testing probe contacts a biased surface and directs current through an associated indicator to provide an indication.
