Probe Station
A probe station is a specialized piece of equipment used in the field of semiconductor manufacturing and testing. It allows engineers to make precise electrical measurements on small chips or circuits while they are still on the wafer. The probe station features a platform where the wafer is placed, and it uses tiny probes to make contact with specific points on the chips. This process helps determine if the circuits are functioning correctly and ensures quality and performance before the chips are cut from the wafer and packaged for use in electronic devices.
