What it is

The Precio XL is an automatic wafer prober manufactured by Tokyo Electron. The model designation is Precio XL. The Precio XL belongs to the Test & Probe equipment category. The Precio XL includes hot and cold temperature capability. The Precio XL supports a 93K Direct Dock configuration. The Precio XL loads wafers through a single FOUP wafer loader mounted on the right side. The Precio XL provides a stage accuracy of 1.8 µm. The Precio XL supports probing force options of 200 kg and 300 kg. The Precio XL uses a linear-motor stage in automatic operation. The Precio XL supports 200 mm and 300 mm wafer sizes. The Precio XL provides Z-axis accuracy of 5 µm.[2][4][5]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Wafer probers bring a probe card containing fine needles into contact with the wafer surface. The prober aligns the wafer using fiducial marks and steps each die beneath the probe tips. Contact force and touchdown height determine signal integrity during electrical test.

Where it fits in the process flow

The Precio XL supports a 93K Direct Dock configuration for interface with a test head. The Precio XL loads wafers through a single FOUP wafer loader mounted on the right side of the system.[2][4]

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

Automatic wafer probers support device characterization, yield screening, and speed binning during wafer test. Temperature-controlled probing enables testing of devices at specified thermal conditions.
