FormFactor - Cascade Unity Probe - Multicontact probe for RFIC engineering test
-
Up to 12 contacts; any contact can be DC, Power, Logic to 500 MHz,or RF to 20 GHz
-
Online design configuration tool helps you to specify your probe in minutes
-
All designs are fully quadrant compatible
-
Full solution includes probes, calibration substrates, stations, accessories and software
-
Scalable architecture for future needs
The multi-contact Unity Probe provides highly flexible configurability, unprecedented durability and ease-of use for RFIC engineering test. Unlike “bent-to-order” needle-probe solutions, Unity probes are quickly “built-to-order” with a precision tip cluster featuring multiple independently compliant fingers to isolate chip components from probing stresses — maximizing probe life and durability. Each contact can be configured to one or several contact types and frequencies, and the Unity Probe delivers on the legendary quality you’ve come to expect from our comprehensive suite of probing solutions.

The TEM horn antenna is an antenna used for conducting close proximity radiation immunity evaluation test (near electromagnetic field immunity test) of electromagnetic waves radiated from various wireless transmitters such as mobile devices.
In the future, close proximity radiation immunity evaluation test using the TEM horn antenna is expected to expand to various product standards such as medical equipment (IEC 60601-1-2) and multimedia equipment (CISPR 35).NoiseKen's TEM horn antenna has a wide band, low VSWR, and wide electric field uniformity offering an ideal solution for an efficient close proximity radiation immunity test.
- A TEM horn antenna compliant with IEC 61000-4-39 Ed.1.
- Test without changing the antenna in the frequency range of 380MHz to 6GHz.
- Low VSWR and high GAIN enable efficient electromagnetic wave radiation.
- Wide field uniformity reduces the number of times of movement of the antenna when radiating the EUT.
- Since the maximum point of the near electric field distribution for each frequency is at the center, enables radiation on the EUT based on the axis of the antenna. Hence, significantly simplifies test point alignment.
