PRODUCTS

Wafer Probers
Electroglas was the first company to produce a production worthy automatic wafer prober. Our range of 200mm and 300mm probers were the first to offer such breakthroughs as frictionless motion, non-contact edge sensing and fiducial alignment, helping customers optimize their manufacturing process and achieve better yields. This innovation continues today, as Electroglas moves to build on its proven probing technology to meet the evolving needs of semiconductor wafer and device testing, including dynamic random access memory (DRAM), flash memory, system-on-a-chip and other emerging devices.

Prober-based Test Handlers
Electroglas test handlers are built upon proven prober technology to give chipmakers a fast, flexible handling solution for today's latest packaging technologies, including Wafer Level Packages (WLP), Known-Good Die (KGD), Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS), ultra-thin and/or diced wafers, as well as any packages in strip, panel or leadframe format. Delivering greater speed and accuracy than traditional handling methodologies, Electroglas provides automated, very high speed parallel test handling solutions that accommodate most leading edge device packaging technologies - simplifying the final test process. This allows chipmakers to maximize profitability by increasing test cell throughput and allowing them to handle the tightest new package geometries.

Test Floor Management Software
Electroglas test floor management software provides a unique, networked solution to connect wafer probers and test handlers to the broader testing infrastructure, allowing the chipmaker to better manage overall test effectiveness by more accurately and efficiently monitoring, analyzing and improving important processes. Within a secure, web-based environment, Electroglas offers automated data collection, analysis, and alarming for corrective action. Results are delivered via dynamic, interactive web pages that match presentation and interaction expectations with the audience, allowing users to view reports and/or perform additional analysis. Electroglas also provides remote control and e-diagnostics for probers, allowing users to solve problems remotely, reducing equipment downtime and travel costs.
