What it is

The SUSS MicroTec PA 200 HS is a test and probe prober.[2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A probe station aligns electrical probes to contact pads or other test sites on a wafer or die while the operator observes the contact area through a microscope.

A probe station uses visual alignment, controlled probe motion, and electrical contact to support wafer-level measurement before final release or packaging decisions.

Where it fits in the process flow

The PA 200 HS belongs in the test and probe stage of semiconductor work.[2]

Applications

The PA 200 HS is used for wafer probing.[2][3]
