Meet One of Our Newest Probe Stations





One of the newest probe stations in Micromanipulator’s extensive line-up is our patent pending 2210-LS that is the world’s first true system level probe station with above and below ambient temperature capabilities.  The 2210-LS model combines the traditional wafer probe to the device exercising capabilities of the application board, and was specifically designed to help development teams working with post tape-out product spins.  In addition, extensive application coverage is provided including basic DC, to E and K-Band analysis.

Our new probe station is loaded with features such as an open and stable platform for high magnification sample viewing and probing.  Users are able to probe at the application board block or at system level while exercising their chip in mission mode.  Furthermore, you can easily trace and analyze issues that manifest only in the actual end application environment.  Examples of this include: power issues; inter-block device interface and tolerance issues; and between-block issues such as mixed-signal interface.  Also users can analyze race conditions and clocking domain. 

With flexible setups, temperature and ambient versions and comprehensive accessory support available, the new 2210-LS station is an excellent choice for many applications.  Our 30” x 36” optical vibration isolation table accommodates application boards measuring approximately 26” square and two independently moveable stainless steel platens accommodate up to 10 individual probe positioners. 

Other options available for Micromanipulator’s 2210-LS include removable ambient and thermal chucks for wafer level probing needs, stereo zoom and compound microscopes, CCD and video monitor options and shroud enclosure for light shielding.  Furthermore, it offers our patent-pending Application Board Thermal Test Capability accommodating application boards up to 10” x 10”.  See our website for all of the details regarding our 2210-LS probe station along with our other models and products.   

At Micromanipulator we not only invented analytical probing in 1956 but remain the leading name in the field.  As such we reliably deliver the tools and life cycle support the semiconductor industry depends on.  Part of the company’s philosophy and what drives our success is an unfaltering commitment to our customers’ satisfaction.  Contact us to learn more about our exceptional line of probe stations and accessories.
