Frequently asked questions
What is a test and probe system used for?General reference — not yet source-verified
It is used to make electrical contact with wafer-level structures so their electrical behavior can be measured and evaluated.
What does this class of machine measure?General reference — not yet source-verified
It measures electrical properties of devices, circuits, and test structures, including functional response and parametric behavior.
Where does wafer probing fit in semiconductor manufacturing?General reference — not yet source-verified
It is a wafer-level inspection and test step used before later assembly or further downstream processing decisions.
Why is precise motion important in this equipment class?General reference — not yet source-verified
Precise motion is needed to align the probes with small electrical pads or features and to repeat that contact consistently across many sites.
What kinds of tasks are done with probe equipment?General reference — not yet source-verified
It is used for wafer sort, device characterization, process control measurements, and evaluation of test structures.
