Abstract

A device and method are disclosed for electrical contacting of semiconductor devices for testing. One embodiment provides for testing semiconductor devices or integrated circuits, including a probe card with contact tips for the electrical contacting of the semiconductor devices. The electrical connection of at least one contact tip to the test system is adapted to be switched via a resistively switching memory cell. A resistively switching memory cell in the form of a nano switch is integrated in the electrical connection of the contact tip.
