FLEXIBLE SHIELDED LAMINATE BEAM FOR ELECTRICAL CONTACTS

摘要

A novel flexible laminated beam contactor interface package for applications between chips and the like and test equipment therefore, containing a flexible core beam contactor (204) laminated within outer ground shield beam coverings (202, 206) and provided with an exposed contact tip for connecting with test equipment externally to the package; and with contacts adapted flexibly to engage the chip terminals when the chip is temporarily applied to the package for testing; the laminated beam contactor preferably being shaped as bent flexible cantilever or curved beams.
