FormFactor - Cascade DCP-HTR Series Probe - High-performance DC parametric probe
-
Ultra-low, fA-level current and fF-level capacitance measurements from -65 °C to + 300 °C
-
Guarantees fully-guarded measurements to fA and fF levels
-
Individual connectors provide force-sense connection for quasi-Kelvin and CV measurements
-
Allows probing of different pad materials and sizes
-
Fast replacement of worn probes without the need for tools
The DCP-HTR probe delivers fA-level measurement capability from -65 °C to 300 °C for advanced characterization and reliability testing. Its unique design offers superior guarding and shielding over-temperature, overcoming the high-temperature performance limitations of standard coaxial needles. When used on a probe station with a MicroChamber, the DCP-HTR allows full utilization of semiconductor parametric test instruments. The optional probe tips with small diameter are ideal for probing pads as small as 30 x 30 μm.

More Product Information
-
Ease of use – Less experienced operators can perform DC measurements by simply pushing a button. This reduces the need of experienced users full time on each system.
-
Reduced Soak Time – The system will automatically re-align the probes to the pads if they drift from alignment. This reduces test time and increases throughput.
-
Unattended Use – Measurements can be left running over night or the weekend, testing all devices on the wafer, and at different temperatures without the need of an operator.
-
Ease of use – Less experienced operators can perform an RF calibration up to 500 GHz by simply pushing a button. This reduces the need of experienced users full time on each system.
