Manual Wafer Probe Equipment: PS4L-M

SemiProbe’s PS4L-M manual wafer probe equipment is ideal for development and research facilities plus start-up companies that require advanced wafer probing equipment without motorized device alignment. A rapid advance manual X-Y stage enables quick stage movements across the wafer, with fine micrometer controls for precise probe tip alignment.

The system is based on SemiProbe’s unique and patented, modular Probe System For Life platform, that can be configured for manual, semi and fully automatic wafer probing applications, according to budget or initial requirements, for testing individual die up to 300 mm wafers.

Unlike traditional probe systems, all foundation modules including bases, stages, chucks, microscope mounts, microscope movements, optics, manipulators and more are interchangeable, making the PS4L the consummate solution for many different probing applications.

This unique design also enables customers to acquire probe test capabilities that precisely match their requirements. More important, as the environment or test conditions change, customers with equipment can field upgrade them with enhanced testing features or levels of automation, turning a manual prober into a semi-automatic or even fully automatic system.

With this design philosophy, PS4L customers can realize substantial time and cost savings over traditional probe systems, because they do not need to invest in a new platform when wafer size, levels of automation or test requirements change.
