What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

Wafer probers are semiconductor test equipment used to electrically test integrated circuits at the wafer level before dicing. The machine makes temporary electrical contact with each die on the wafer, enabling functional and parametric testing to identify known good dies and reject defective ones before packaging.

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A wafer prober positions a wafer on a chuck that can move in X, Y, and Z axes to align the wafer's bond pads with a set of probe needles mounted on a probe card. The prober brings the needles into contact with the pads, then the test system (typically a separate tester) applies signals and measures responses. The prober indexes from die to die, stepping the wafer under the probe card to test every site.
