1. A method of inspecting an electrical characteristic of a to-be-inspected object, comprising:
- bringing pairs of probe pins into contact with respective electrodes of at least one to-be-inspected object;
applying a voltage to the respective inspection electrodes via the pairs of probe pins by power supplies connected to the respective pairs of probe pins, thereby causing a fritting phenomenon to occur between tips of each pair included in the pairs of probe pins; and
applying an inspection signal to the electrodes of the to-be-inspected object via the pairs of probe pins, thereby inspecting an electrical characteristic of the to-be-inspected object.

5. An apparatus for inspecting an electrical characteristic of a to-be-inspected object, comprising:
-
pairs of probe pins to be brought into contact with respective electrodes of at least one to-be-inspected object;
power supplies connected to the respective pairs of probe pins to apply a voltage to the respective electrodes, a fritting phenomenon occurring between tips of each pair included in the pairs of probe pins, as a result of application of the voltage; and
a tester which transmits, after the fritting phenomenon occurs, an inspection signal to the electrodes of the to-be-inspected object, thereby inspecting an electrical characteristic of the to-be-inspected object. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
