Abstract:
Apparatus for testing semiconductor devices comprising die stacks, the apparatus comprising a substrate having an array of pockets in a surface thereof arranged to correspond to conductive elements protruding from a semiconductor device to be tested. The pockets include conductive contacts with traces extending to conductive pads, which may be configured as test pads, jumper pads, edge connects or contact pads. The substrate may comprise a semiconductor wafer or wafer segment and, if the latter, multiple segments may be received in recesses in a fixture. Testing may be effected using a probe card, a bond head carrying conductive pins, or through conductors carried by the fixture.

Claim (Index 10):
The semiconductor device test apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the conductive pads are located on a bottom surface of the at least one substrate, the conductive traces are configured as vias extending through material of the at least one substrate to the conductive pads, and further including a fixture having at least one recess therein, the at least one substrate received in the at least one fixture and the conductive pads being in contact with conductive contacts on a bottom surface of the at least one recess, the conductive contacts operably coupled to at least one of respective conductive traces extending along the bottom surface of the at least one recess and upwardly over at least one wall of the at least one recess to at least one of test pads on a surface of the fixture adjacent the at least one substrate, or through the fixture to test pads on a bottom surface of the fixture, or through the fixture to test pads on a side surface of the fixture.
