Patent ID: 7119562

Claim:
A contact-type film probe comprising: a plastic substrate, one face of the substrate being a connecting face; multiple parallel signal lines side by side arranged on the connecting face of the substrate at intervals, each signal line having a connecting section near one end of the signal line; at least one buffer layer disposed over the connecting face of the substrate and overlaid on the connecting section of the signal line; multiple contact conductive layers respectively correspondingly connected with the signal lines, at least one of the contact conductive layers forming a conductive element extending from at least one signal line, at least one of the contact conductive layers at least partially enveloping upper and side portions of the conductive element to capture against the buffer layer, the buffer layer resiliently supporting the contact conductive layers over the substrate; and an insulating layer disposed on the other section of the signal line free from the contact conductive layer, whereby by means of the buffer layer, when contacting with tested wires, the force is fully evenly exerted onto the contact conductive layers and the direct contact force exerted onto the contact conductive layers is reduced so as to prolong the using life of the contact-type film probe.
