Success Story - MEMS Manual Wafer Prober

June 25, 2019

Customer Requirements:

The customer wanted to test 200 mm silicon MEMS wafers using a manual probe system integrated with a Polytec MSA-500 MEMS Motion Analyzer. The motion analyzer would measure a variety of MEMS devices while in-plane and out-of-plane. The wafer chuck would need to be tilted in a variety of directions. The devices would be contacted with a probe card as well as individual manipulators with coaxial probe arms and DC probe needles.
