12-inch Wafer Probe Stations
A 12-inch wafer probe station supports a 300 mm wafer on a positioning chuck and aligns probes with device contact locations.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Chuck planarity, positioning accuracy and temperature control affect repeatable measurements. Probe configuration must suit pad pitch and the electrical test conditions.
Automation changes alignment and handling work but does not replace the measurement instruments. Contact resistance and leakage paths can limit useful test precision.
What turns activity into demand
Compare positioning capability against the intended device and measurement. Separate probe stations from probe cards, measurement instruments and complete production test cells.
The commercial boundary
Separate probe stations from probe cards, measurement instruments and complete production test cells.
