Need Help Finding the Best Probe Station for Your Needs?

Being a first-time buyer of a probe station can be confusing as you will discover when you browse through the Micromanipulator Company’s wide range of manual, motorized or semiautomatic models.  While at first glance it may seem like “too many choices,” your buying decision will typically be determined by the features offered, your application requirements and budget as well as the ease of use of the prober.  While each of our models is designed with a variety of capabilities, whatever one you eventually decide on will be available with Micromanipulator’s full systems support.

Our selection of manual probe stations includes the world’s most versatile prober, our patented Model 2210-LS Application Board Probe Station.  Originally conceived as an application board probe station, the exclusive 2210-LS not only adeptly handles that application but its uses have grown and expanded.  In fact it is the only probe station in the world that allows users to probe application boards at low and high temperatures when used with the 2210-LS-T-ADPT Application Board Temperature adaptation unit.

Our other manual probe stations include the Model 8060, the highest performance manual 150mm-200mm  prober, the high efficiency 4060 also a 150mm-200mm wafer prober, and the 450PM, an upgradeable manual probe station. The 450PM is quickly becoming one of our more popular models as it provides Micromanipulator performance and configurability in a easy to upgrade platform.

Our Motorized models include the P200L Semi-Automatic Probe Station, a 200mm prober.  We also have the P300L Semi-Automatic Probe Station, a 300mm semiautomatic wafer prober and the P300J Motorized Manual Probe Station, a 300mm manual wafer prober.  For the most advanced semiautomatic 300mm prober, we suggest our Model P300A Semiautomatic Probe Station.

When you buy from us, you receive the benefit of a worldwide network of service support engineers that provide full system level support services on everything from optics to thermal chucks.  In addition we help you protect your investment by offering extended warranties, preventative maintenance programs and upgrade paths even on obsolete tools.

Products Designed for Your Probing Success

Micromanipulator has been one of the most reliable test probe manufacturers for high-quality analytical tools for well over 60 years.  In fact we invented analytical probing in 1956, and throughout the ensuing years have helped customers solve problems for successful product development, failure analysis applications, device characterization, R&D and more.

Our line of products has developed and grown along with the industry.  What started out as early belt driven stages have evolved through the years into high resolution lead screw lead nut designs, and now offer Micromanipulator’s customers the best positioning resolution available in the marketplace.  We have also supported the industry’s advancement from microscope magnifications of a few hundred times to tools that offer more than 2,000X magnification levels.

As one of the earliest companies in the field, we were also instrumental in pioneering the integration of thermal chucks with probe stations.  As our success indicates, Micromanipulator has continued to enhance system capabilities by designing thermal wafer chucks with the broadest temperature ranges from -65C to 400C.  And by listening and learning from our customers, our inventory additionally includes a range of sub-micron positioners equipped with high performance probe heads.

Utilizing the extensive expertise of our talented Micromanipulator team, we proudly provide customers worldwide analytical probe stations and accessories for both wafer level and decapsulated packaged part probing.  Our products include upgradeable, high-performance manual probe stations suitable for high speed and low current measurements to semiautomatic systems for effortless production of statistically significant data sets.   For the “best in each category,” you will find it at the Micromanipulator Company!

Micromanipulator not only invented analytical probing in 1956 but we are the leading name in the field. We reliably deliver the tools and life cycle support the semiconductor industry depends on. Part of our company’s philosophy and what drives our success is an unfaltering commitment to our customers’ satisfaction. As one of the leading test probe manufacturers in the world, we offer a wide range of probe stations along with the consumables, accessories and on-site support.

Hot Chuck Systems Support Wafers from 150 to 300 mm

As one of world’s foremost test probe manufacturers, the Micromanipulator Company’s thermal wafer chucks are designed to be part of our comprehensive system integration.  They are available for all Micromanipulator probe stations, including our Model 2210-LS Application Board Probe Station.  Chucks can be configured to meet specific probing application requirements and support 150 to 300 mm wafers in coaxial or triaxial configurations.   

With a range of features including rapid heat up and cool down, our thermal chucks support wafer testing from -65 to 400C.  In addition they offer choices in the heating power supply. The AC heating supply is perfect for fast heating when chuck noise in the femtoamp level is not needed.  Our DC heating supply allows system users to achieve the very lowest level of measurements.

We also offer our thermal chucks in a choice of three cooling options to meet application needs as well as budgets.  For the most economical choice, we recommend our C1000 Simple Heat Exchanger (HE) cooling that is ideal for high (above ambient) testing and has a rapid cool down of the chuck once the heat cycle has finished.   If your application requires a thermal chuck capable of testing to zero °C, you will need our C1000 Zero Degree option. For the highest performance cooling system, our HC1000 is capable of testing at temperatures as low as -65 °C.  

As with any of our probe stations or accessories, the Micromanipulator team welcomes questions regarding our thermal wafer chuck systems.  Once you buy our products, your investment will be protected by Micromanipulator’s warranties as well as our worldwide system level support.  All Micromanipulator brand products are guaranteed to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year (extended warranties are available).  For our Mechatronics brands, we provide a 90-day warranty. Warranties excludes consumable items like probe tips. Our knowledgeable engineers are ready to answer your questions and concerns.
