Automatic wire connection apparatus for circuit board testing

An apparatus for connecting a wire for circuit board testing to a circuit board and a circuit board verification apparatus, the apparatus comprising:

• a probe configured to electrically connect to a test point included in the circuit board;
• a robot arm configured to place the probe at a preset position on the circuit board,
• wherein the probe includes:
• an upper probe part having a flat end and a sharp end opposite each other in a longitudinal direction of the upper probe part,
• a lower probe part having a flat end and a sharp end opposite each other in a longitudinal direction of the lower probe part, the flat end of the lower probe part being connected to the flat end of the upper probe part, and
• a spring extending from the flat end into the sharp end in each of the upper probe part and the lower probe part;
• and
• a controller electrically connected to the robot arm and to the test point, the controller being configured to adjust the probe to a minimum length when in the robot arm and to a maximum length when placed at the preset position on the circuit board, the preset position being the test point.
