ABSTRACT:
An electrical connecting apparatus is used for electrical inspection of a device under test having electrodes each of which a recess is formed on a flat upside. The electrical connecting apparatus is provided with a plurality of probes, each probe including a base portion combined with a probe board, an elastically deformable arm portion extending above the electrodes of the device under test from the base portion along the probe board and at a distance therefrom, and a tip portion projecting from the arm portion in a direction to be away from the probe board. The front end of the tip portion of each probe can abut a flat surface area except the recess on the upside of the electrode in a state that no flexural deformation is caused in the arm portion. The electrical connecting apparatus is used so that, when an overdrive force toward the electrode acts on the probe to cause the arm portion a flexural deformation, the front end of the tip portion can move on the flat surface area without departing from the flat surface area.
