A needle assembly of probe card includes a plate and needles formed therein for enhancing an assembly characteristic and productivity and increasing an exact and reliable characteristic test. The plate is provided with holes that are formed with an insulating film on an inner side surface thereof. One side end surface of the needle adheres on an inner side surface of the hole, another side end surface thereof is spaced from an inner side surface of the hole, and a vertical thickness of the other side of the hole is formed thinner than the plate so as to have a space in which the other side can vertically move upwardly and downwardly. The plate and the needle are integrated.

1. A needle assembly of a probe card, comprising:a plate made of silicon material, said plate being formed therein with holes having a predetermined width and length and spaced from one another at predetermined intervals, an inner side of said holes each being formed with an insulating film having a predetermined thickness on an inner side surface thereof; and a plurality of needles, a surface of one side portion of each of the needles being adhered on one side surface of each of the holes, a surface of another side portion of each of the needles being spaced from an inner side surface of each of the holes by a predetermined gap, the other portion of each of the needles being formed thinner than the needle guide plate in a vertical direction so as to be movable upwardly and downwardly within the hole, wherein said plate and said needles are combined into one body. 2. The assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the needle is “L”-shaped, a vertical portion of the “L”-shaped needle adhering to one inner side surface of the hole of the plate, a horizontal portion of the “L” shaped needle being configured to be movable upward and downward.3. The assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the needle is provided with a needle tip that projects downward, a lower surface of the other side portion of the needle being movable upwardly and downwardly.4. The assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the gap between the another side portion of the needle and the insulating film formed on an inner side surface of the plate, is of sufficient width to prevent contact between the insulating film and the another side portion of the needle when the other side portion of the needle moves upwardly and downwardly.5. A needle assembly of a probe card, comprising:a plate made of silicon material, said plate being formed therein with holes having a predetermined width and length and spaced from one another at predetermined intervals, an inner side of said holes each being formed with an insulating film having a predetermined thickness on an inner side surface thereof; a plurality of needles, a surface of one side portion of each of the needles being adhered on one side surface of each of the holes, a surface of another side portion of each of the needles being spaced from an inner side surface of each of the holes by a predetermined gap, the other portion of each of the needles being formed thinner in thickness than the plate in a vertical direction so as to be movable upwardly and downwardly within the hole; and a circuit substrate formed on the plate with a predetermined thickness, the circuit substrate formed therein with contact holes by which the circuit substrate is electrically connected to the needles, the circuit substrate formed thereon with connection patterns electrically connected to the contact holes, wherein said plate, said needles, and said circuit substrate are combined into one body.
