What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

The SUSS MicroTec PA 200 is a wafer prober used for semiconductor test and probe work.

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A wafer prober positions electrical probes onto specific sites on a wafer so test signals can be applied and measured at wafer level.

Wafer probing is commonly part of electrical test and inspection before die singulation and later assembly steps.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The PA 200 fits in wafer-level electrical test and metrology workflows.

The PA 200 can support probe-based characterization before downstream packaging, assembly, or further device evaluation.

Applications

The PA 200 is used for semiconductor wafer testing and electrical measurement.[1]
