Wafer inspection system
First Claim
1. A wafer inspection system for inspecting a wafer, comprising:
- a platform for receiving the wafer;
a probe card including an opening hole and a plurality of probes for directly contacting the wafer to transmit and receive electrical signals;
an illuminator for illuminating on the wafer through the opening hole of the probe card;
a test server connected to the illuminator for being controlled to execute test procedure and data process;
a load board;
at least a relay board connected to the probe card and the load board for switching a direction of data flow;
at least an image card respectively corresponding to and connected to the at least a relay board for processing received image signals;
at least an image processing device connected to the test server and the at least an image card for receiving and processing the image signals from the at least an image card, and sending a test result to the test server;
a control circuit board connected to the test server and the load board for receiving commands from the test server and sending control commands through the load board; and
at least a test circuit board connected to the load board for sending test signals according to received control commands, performing a determination on received result signals and sending a determined result to the control circuit board through the load board.

Abstract
A wafer inspection system for inspecting a wafer comprises a platform, a probe card, a illuminator, a test server, at least one image processing device, a control circuit board, at least a test circuit board, a load board connected to the control circuit board and the at least a test circuit board, at least an image card, and at least a relay board. The probe card includes an opening hole and a plurality of probes for contacting the wafer to transmit and receive electrical signals. The illuminator illuminates on the wafer through the opening hole. The test server is controlled to execute test procedure and data process. The test circuit board transmits test signals and performs a determination on the received result signals. The relay board is connected to the probe card and the load board for switching the direction of data flow.
