    Abstract: Disclosed herein are apparatuses and methods for mitigating sticking of units-under-test (UUTs). For example, in some embodiments, a probe card may include a probe landing pad, a guide plate having a hole therein, and a pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism may include a pusher needle and a pusher needle support, the pusher needle support may be between the probe landing pad and the guide plate, and the pusher needle support may be controllable to cause the pusher needle to extend and retract through the hole in the guide plate.
