HPPI’s products enable the characterization of semiconductor devices and circuits in the pulsed high current and high voltage time domain.

HPPI’s outstanding ATS-8000A test system is a fully automated 2-pin probing solution for HBM, TLP, HMM and CC-TLP on package- and wafer-level using multiple ALIO stages. Key features:

–> Vacuum chuck rotary stage for any package shape, any package size and wafers

–> Probe force sensors for maximum probe tip life time and to avoid job interruption

–> L/R 3-axis motion systems for ultra-fast speed to maximized throughput

–> Moving target video cam system to combine image files and data

–> User interface based on standard HPPI software

The system is used in top-notch research, development and production facilities such as the Fraunhofer Research Institution for Microsystems and Solid State Technologies in Munich.
