The award winning VXI Modular Instrumentation Platform (VMIP™) provides customers with a level of modularity for instruments that is unmatched in the industry. The VMIP™ makes a single VXIbus card slot three times more powerful than single device solutions. Each VMIP™ instrument can be mixed and matched with other VMIP™ devices for added flexibility.
PureLine 3 Technology
- Provides an effectively noise free environment around the device under test (DUT)
- First automated probe station to achieve -190dB spectral noise*
- Up to 32x lower noise (1kHz), for improved device characterization and modelling at the 7/5/2 nm technology nodes targeted for 5G and beyond applications
- Eliminates over 97% of the environmental noise experienced in previous probe systems
- Extensive collection of FormFactor patents, electrical design knowledge, and measurement system IP
Plug In and Go
