Abstract

See full text

Apparatus and methods for testing conductive bumps or target test points on integrated circuits. A multiplicity of probes are extended through a support substrate. At least one of the multiplicity of probe locations include a second electrically isolated probe such that the test point is in contact with two probes. One of the two probes provides a voltage to the test point and the second probe sensing the voltage so as to provide a Kelvin connection.
