Ultra-Simplified miniature benchtop probing station
No temperature control, no atmospheric control (optional upgrade to 2" thermal chuck available)
4, 6 or 8+ miniature electrical probers, ideal for pads larger than 250um x 250um
50mm x 50mm elevated sample chuck
Inexpensive tool for benchtop probing
Latest production version V12.01.00
The P02S-PM is a simple but robust benchtop probing tool for a variety of applications. Designed to be an affordable alternative to our temperature-controlled -PM products, this simplified probe station does not have any active temperature control or atmospheric control and instead focuses on reliability and simplicity. The P02S-PM supports 4, 6 or *8+ electrical probers, each of which can be manually positioned on the sample - perfect for vander-pauw, 4-point probe, or hall-bar measurements. The entire probing station is thin enough to be placed under an optical microscope or within a magnetic field for hall-effect measurements, making it a simple yet versatile tool.
*8+ Probers requires the P02S-PM+ customizable model
2" Instec thermal chucks such as the TC102 or HCC602S can easily be integrated to add temperature control capabilities, perfect for probing devices inside vacuum chambers, glove-boxes, or in work areas with limited space.
The standard P02S-PM comes with 1 tungsten-rhenium probe tip and one Coaxial BNC per electrical prober. Complete coaxial cables are not included.
The upgraded P02S-PM+ model can be customized to include a range of additional features such as more than 8+ prober options, custom prober layouts, specialized probers such as RF or 4-point, transmission apertures, additional mounting holes, handles, non-magnetic construction for Hall Effect measurments, electrical connections, and more!
