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.

Comprehensive EMC test software for radiated susceptibility, conducted immunity, radiated emissions, and conducted emissions, with the ability to do multi-tone testing. Windows compatible.
emcware® by AR RF/Microwave Instrumentation provides automated Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing and report generation for all types of users from corporate to professional test laboratories. Through its unique workflow and hundreds of predefined test profiles, allows EMC test engineers more test time through minimal training, and highly efficient equipment and test setup when compared to the competition.
AR’s state-of-the-art multi-tone systems are designed to test RF Radiated and Conducted Immunity faster than ever before. Both the MT2IEC10V3M and MT4IEC10V3M fully comply with IEC 61000-4-3:2020 Edition 4, allowing for multiple tone testing, reducing test time by up to 74%. Commercial, aviation, and automotive industries, will perform RF radiated and conducted immunity testing faster, more accurately, more efficiently, and more closely to a real-world environment.
With the inclusion of instrumentation hardware and AR’s emcware® software, the MT2IEC10V3M and MT4IEC10V3M are full turn-key systems in one rack, capable of producing 18 V/m CW (10 V/m AM). The MT2IEC10V3M reduces test time by up to 50% and the MT4IEC10V3M reduces test time by up to 74%. Customized systems achieving higher field strengths are also available, using this approach.
