FormFactor - Cascade Resistive Matching and Termination - Custom configured for your application
- Choice of Series resistance or Termination (signal line to ground)
- Use of High Performance RF Resistors
- Choice of Resistor values available
- Choice of body styles, Infinity, ACP or FPC
- Can help to stabilize oscillations in high-gain devices
- Impedance match to low dynamic resistance laser diodes
- Custom configured for your application
Resistive Impedance Matching Probes and Termination probes are available for the following probe families: Infinity; ACP; FPC, in multiple configurations. We use high performance / high quality RF resistors for these Matching or Termination probes and the resistors are placed as close as possible to the tip/DUT, to minimize the path length between the DUT and the resistor. The available Resistance values are limited and are listed in the request form. These types of Impedance Matching and Termination probes are used in various application such as with laser diodes, Transmission Line Pulse, ensure better termination of 50 ohm test equipment when mated to high impedance devices, etc.

See "Specifications & Details" tab for more 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.
- DC-40 GHz bandwidth
- 10 ps rise time
- Low insertion and return loss
- 2 mils of tip-to-tip compliance
- High probing angle and clearance
Superior Mechanics
- Highly stable granite base
- Independent, coarse movement of X and Y axes, combined with easy fine adjustments down to submicron ranges
- 1 µm repeatable separation stroke
- Excellent measurement accuracy and repeatability
- Fast navigation and high-precision probe positioning
