Miniature benchtop probing station with precision XYZ prober control
No temperature control, no atmospheric control (Optional upgrade to thermal chuck available)
4,6 or 8+ probers, ideal for pads larger than 50um x 50um
Ø50mm elevated sample area
Cost-effective substitute for full-size probe station
Optional upgrades including electrically floating surface area, sample clips or sample suction grooves, transmisison aperture and much more!
The P02S-PM-XYZ4 is a simple but robust benchtop probing tool for a variety of applications. Designed to essentially be a super-miniatureized probe station, the XYZ4 is a cost and space effective solution for electrical characterization and testing of singulated semiconductor devices or material samples.
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 precisley positioned via XYZ micromanipulators. The entire probing station is thin enough to be placed under an optical microscope or within a magnetic field for Van Der pauw or Hall-bar hall-effect measurements, making it a simple yet versatile tool.
*8+ Probers requires the P02S-PM+ customizable model
The standard P02S-PM-XYZ4 comes with 1 tungsten-rhenium probe tip (50um tip diameter) and one Coaxial BNC connection per electrical prober. Complete coaxial cables are not included.
The upgraded P02S-PM-XYZ4+ 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, sample suction grooves, electrically floating sample area and more!
