VersAdjust™

Have you ever needed to make slight changes for die to die spacing changes for:

  • New Layout
  • New Temperature Range
  • New Temperature Ranges
  • The Wafer expands slightly more in one direction than the other due to:
    • Grain
    • Metalization Pattern?
  • Smaller Pad Sizes?
  • Out of Tolerance Probe Alignment or probes that have gone out of alignment?
  • Warped Chucks

VersaAdjust can help with these problems!
  • Allows for Die to Die Spacing Adjustments
  • Adjustments are done live using either a lookup camera or downward looking camera

Spacing Adjustment Ranges are as follows:

  X   "+/- 500 microns
  Y   "+/- 500 microns
  Z   "+/- 200 microns
  Theta   "+/- 5 degrees

Why is it needed:
  • 300 mm Wafers Expand from Center to edge up to 150 Microns for 300 degree range
  • Wafer Pad Sizes are going down to 40 microns
  • Small Probes go out of alignment faster
  • Testing Temperature Ranges become more specific with small pads so you re-adjust outer die first as temperature
  • The VersaPlate™ is made from a temperature compensated metal in which the maximum expansion difference is 80 as measured between wafer and probes in a VersaPlate™
  • Eliminates the need for multiple probe cards for some applications
  • Reduces the need for factory alignments for die to die spacing changes
