Customer Requirements:
A USA automotive manufacturer required a small footprint and flexible high current probing solution that would allow them to test 100 mm wafers, chips and packaged parts up to 200 amps. Volume was low so a manual high current probe system with manual manipulators and a variety of high current (HC) and low voltage DC probe arms were desired. The high current probe system would get interfaced to a Keysight B1506. Due to the lethal voltage levels required to test the devices, a safety enclosure would be required.
