As such we reliably deliver the tools and life cycle support the semiconductor industry depends on. As part of the company’s philosophy and what drives our success is an unfaltering commitment to customers’ satisfaction. Please contact us to find out more about our exceptional line of probe stations and accessories. Micromanipulator offers the most comprehensive selection of analytical probing hardware on the market including the world’s most versatile probe station. Our impressive, patented 2210-LS combines the traditional wafer probe to the device exercising capabilities of the application board. By offering above and below ambient temperature stress, it is designed to address today’s advanced system level FA challenges.
Since application boards used as part of a post tape out test plan are not suitable for in-circuit probing with traditional techniques optimized for the wafer level, the versatile 2210 provides the optimal solution. Micromanipulator’s application board/probe station is specifically designed to migrate the wafer level probe capability to the system level application board in order to assist with post tape-out product spins. The 2210 also provides extensive application coverage such as basic DC, to E and K-Band analysis. Also as a user, you will find it is loaded with standard features including an open and stable platform for high magnification sample viewing and probing. It provides the option to probe either at the application board block or at system level while exercising the chip in mission mode. Furthermore, the 2210-LS has the capability to allow you to easily trace and analyze issues that manifest only in the actual end application environment. These include inter-block device interface and tolerance issues; power issues; and between-block issues such as mixed-signal interface. You have the ability to analyze race conditions and clocking domain as well. We think you will find the versatile 2210-LS is the ideal choice for a variety of applications. Along with the comprehensive accessory support and flexible setups, we also offer temperature and ambient versions. Micromanipulator also designs and manufactures high quality accessories such as our optical vibration isolation table, removable ambient and thermal chucks for wafer level probing, stereo zoom and compound microscopes, CCD and video monitor options, and shroud enclosure for light shielding. At Micromanipulator we not only invented analytical probing in 1956 but remain the leading name in the field. As such we reliably deliver the tools and life cycle support the semiconductor industry depends on. Part of the company’s philosophy and what drives our success is an unfaltering commitment to our customers’ satisfaction. Contact us to learn more about our exceptional line of probe stations and accessories. The goal of the Micromanipulator Company is to provide the semiconductor industry with the cutting-edge tools they need to develop the products of the future. Our high-quality products allow our customers to focus on the data, not on the performance of the prober.
In addition we provide specifications and details regarding what type of applications our products are best suited for as well as how to get the most out of our tools. One important resource is our Application Notes that discuss in detail a myriad of common application problems encountered by users along with information on how to most effectively use Micromanipulator’s products. A prime example is our Application Note titled; Proven Techniques for Thermal Probing that provides expert recommendations for customers that use a hot stage for elevated temperature probing or CV Measurement. A common problem of this type of probing is the uncontrolled movement that can cause the probe to slide or jump off its contact resulting in a movement of up to one mil at any location on a six or eight-inch wafer. Along with thoroughly discussing and analyzing the causes and effects of these kinds of problems, we offer effective equipment solutions. In addition to exploring the problem of movement of a device under the probe and the probe point due to thermal expansion, we give you solutions for maintaining probe contact during temperature stressing of wafers. This includes discussing the merits of several of our probe holders and the advantages of each one. Our primary advice is “a little technique can go a long way” when it comes to probing all forms of small geometries, and that with a little experimenting, operators will find the most suitable probing angle and/ or technique. We encourage you to visit our website and read through our complete hot stage probing techniques.
