Introducing the FormFactor CM300xi-SiPh 300 mm semi-/ fully-automated probe system

CM300xi Overview

Best-in-class measurement performance at a high level of automation in the lab*

The CM300xi probe station meets the measurement challenges brought on by extremely complex environments, such as unattended testing on small pads over time and at multiple temperatures. Best-in-class measurement performance is achieved for a wide range of applications in an EMI-shielded, light-tight and moisture-free test environment. Thermal management enhancements and lab automation capabilities result in improved yields and faster time to data.

The CM300xi supports Contact Intelligence™ – a unique technology which enables autonomous semiconductor test. A powerful combination of innovative system design and state of the art image processing provides an operator-independent solution to achieve highly-reliable measurement data at any time and temperature.

With the material handling unit, the CM300xi probe station combines fully-automated wafer test with highest accuracy and flexibilty. The system can handle up to fifty 200 or 300 mm wafers provided in SEMI-standard wafer cassettes
