Abstract:
1. A method for manufacturing a probe assembly comprising: preparing a jig having a surface and a plurality of recesses opened to the surface; respectively arranging a plurality of probes each having a base end portion in the plurality of recesses of the jig so that each probe may extend along each recess and so that a part of the base end portion of each probe may be outside each recess; forming on the surface of the jig a covering layer covering the surface and the probes; removing a part of the covering layer and parts of the base end portions of the probes for the purpose of forming an exposed surface exposing the base end portions of the probes and parallel to the surface of the jig; attaching, to the exposed surface, one surface of an electric insulating substrate having two surfaces opposed to each other; providing the substrate with through holes opposed to the base end portions of the respective probes; filling the respective through holes with a conductive material; forming on the other surface of the substrate conductive membranes to be attached to the conductive material in the respective through holes; removing the covering layer; and removing the jig.
