Pyramid Probes

PRINT
BACK



Each semiconductor wafer is manufactured with hundreds of devices on them. The spaces between the rows and columns of these devices are called “streets”, and in these “streets” are strategically placed test devices called process control monitors. Probing these process control monitors and testing their performance during the production process, allows both manufacturing process parameters and wafer quality to be optimized. Cascade’s patented Pyramid Probes have the unique ability to contact extremely small process control devices enabling semiconductor wafer designers to reduce the size of the inter-die “streets” and thereby increase the number of die that can be fabricated per wafer. Such capability can enable a density increase resulting in 7% or more die per wafer – a significant increase in revenue per manufacturing cycle.
