Abstract

A probe card comprises probe structures, substrate pieces, interface blocks, supporting boards, and circuit boards. The probe structures have probes that transmit and receive electric signals to and from a chip pad of an inspection target through physical contact. The substrate pieces are respectively arranged in the lower parts of the probe structures, are electrically connected with the probes, and are equipped with wires having different intervals on upper and lower surfaces. The interface blocks are respectively arranged in the lower parts of the substrate pieces, are respectively connected with the wires, and are equipped with connection members having the same intervals on upper and lower surfaces. The supporting boards have holes through which the interface blocks are inserted in order to be detachably attached thereto, respectively, and support the interface blocks. The circuit boards are arranged in the lower parts of the supporting boards, and are equipped with wires electrically connected with the connection members of the interface blocks, respectively.
