Find Tools that Meet the Needs of Complex Applications to Basic Functionality


While The Micromanipulator Company prides itself on offering the semiconductor industry the most innovative specialty; semi-automatic; high-performance, upgradeable manual; and general purpose probe stations, we have always recognized that some of our customers just need basic probing functionality. Thus within our inventory, we have manual systems to meet the needs of the most demanding applications ranging from high speed and low current measurements to semiautomatic systems designed for effortless production of statistically significant data sets. In addition we are pleased to offer customers our Mechatronics brand, which leverages all the expertise and designs of the highly trusted Micromanipulator brand in a very economical probe station.

In fact customers turn to us time and time again because they know we have what they need. Our R&D includes a broad range of capabilities such as: low current / low noise measurement, failure analysis, and high and low temperature characterization. We also specialize in tools that offer device reliability analysis such as Interconnect, EM, HCI, Charge Pumping, NBTI, PBTI, and TDDB. Along with high speed digital analysis and high frequency testing up to 200GHz, system users rely on Micromanipulator for high-quality probers for C-V measurements, sub-micron probing, ESD wafer level testing, laser cutting, and high power device analysis. 

One example of our expertise is the world’s most versatile probe station, the 2210-LS Application Board Probe Station that probes decapsulated IC’s, wafers, and large boards - all at temperature. It is -40C to 125C configurable and offers an integrated vibration isolation platform and customization including double-sided probing & magnetic stimulation.

On the other end of the spectrum is the Mechatronics ACE, which offers the best combination of value and price. Pre-configurative packages come with choice of quality probe positioners (manipulators), probe holders, and probe tips to ensure seamless integration. Our Mechatronics ACE can be ordered at our online store or call or email us for the best packaged discounts. Please reach out to us with any questions you have. 

Micromanipulator not only invented analytical probing in 1956 but we are leaders in the field and reliably deliver the tools and life cycle support the semiconductor industry depends on.

Customers' Needs Guide Our R&D


From the start, and in the case of The Micromanipulator Company, that means over 60 years ago, we have listened to our customers and is the reason we offer customized tools or useful information to assist with any application you may have. By really connecting with system users all these years, it has enabled us to address specific needs for probe stations, probe positioners, thermal chucks, probe holders, and probe tips. 

One example is our broad selection of probe holders in single wire, coaxial, triaxial, certified triax and Kelvin configurations. In the majority of cases, the probe tip is secured with a pin jack or a set screw probe mount but we also offer probe holders with shaft locks that slide the closure handle towards the probe point to secure it. 

Micromanipulator’s probe holders are designed for high frequency, low level signal testing, CV testing, and general purpose DC measurement and bias. In addition we offer high frequency holders for coplanar configurations (GSG, SG, GS) and >1GHZ VNA measurements. Our selection of active probe holders offers high input impedance, low input capacitance, fast timing acquisition (optimized rise/fall times, and low capacitance. With all these choices, your decision will be based on your testing needs and/or personal preference. 

With such an extensive inventory, most Micromanipulator customers find solutions for their most technical requirements but occasionally a more exact configuration is required. We address this by offering custom probe holders and probe tips - all you need to do is give us a call and ask for a “Custom Probe Holder Request” form to start the process. 

Every probe holder and probe tip is built with the same quality standards as our probe stations and other accessories. Visit our website for contact information or use our online Chat Service to talk to one of our highly knowledgeable engineers. We will help you design a system, answer questions, and assist you with problems regarding your application. Our goal is to see you succeed and will do all we can to help.
