-
Unique Air Coplanar tip design with choice of beryllium copper (BeCu) or tungsten tip material
-
DC to 110 GHz models available in single and dual line versions
-
Low insertion and return loss with ultra-low-loss ( -L ) versions
-
Excellent crosstalk characteristics
-
Wide operating temperature -65 ° C to + 200 ° C
-
Wide range of pitches available, from 50 to 1250 µm
-
Individually supported contacts
-
Reduced contact (RC) probe tips for small pads

-
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.
-
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.
-
Calibration Monitor and Re-calibration – System will continuously monitor calibration drift, and automatically re-calibrate the system should the drift exceed a predefined limit.
- Revolutionary technology advancement for wafer and die-level photonics probing
- Real-time in-situ calibrations
- Singulated die testing
- True die-level edge coupling
- In-situ power measurements
- Advanced calibration technologies
- Enables autonomous measurements
