Marketwired
Cascade Microtech, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCD), a leader at enabling
precision measurements of integrated circuits at the wafer level,
today announced the kickoff of its series of CONNECT events. In
this series of local events beginning in San Jose, CA and
travelling throughout Europe, Asia and Japan, CONNECT will feature
the company's newest wafer probing solutions and will provide a
forum for discussing the most current challenges facing device and
process design engineers and manufacturers today.
CONNECT is being launched as a platform for communication and
sharing of ideas, challenges and best-practice solutions; it is
Cascade Microtech's belief that the information that drives
discovery and innovation is the accumulated knowledge of its
industry peers. During the course of CONNECT's global tour,
attendees will meet the innovative team of design engineers,
technical managers and executives who created its newest wafer
probing solutions to enable customers to meet evolving test
challenges. Two specific areas will be highlighted; high-power
device production probing and process characterization/modeling.
Cascade Microtech has recently introduced new solutions that
address these challenges.
In separate seminars targeted at process development and
production test engineers, the CONNECT agenda will address the
market outlook as well as introduce Cascade Microtech's response to
the industry challenges. For on-wafer power device probing, the
company's APS200TESLA fully-automated on-wafer probe system will be
presented, underscoring the importance of its unique capabilities
to provide a safe and high-performance production test environment
for high-voltage/high-current applications. Rated up to 10.5kV
DC/400 A, Cascade Microtech's APS200TESLA is the first
fully-automated on-wafer probe system to offer unmatched electrical
performance for high-current/high-voltage probing of power devices
in a production environment. The probe system features a
high-voltage/high-power chuck port, and the patent-pending
MicroVac™ chuck that can handle wafer thicknesses down to 50 µm,
including the ultra-thin Taiko wafers. The APS200TESLA enables
high-power device manufacturers to achieve better yields and
deliver superior cost of test.
Another new product we will highlight is the new CM300.
Delivering high integrity data, the CM300 is a
semi-/fully-automated 300 mm probe system for device and process
characterization and modeling. The CM300 is a flexible on-wafer
measurement platform that scales to meet evolving needs in
capability and automation. It enhances device and process
characterization and modeling by capturing the true electrical
performance of devices and enabling hands-off productivity. Its
high-accuracy performance enables minimization of design
iterations, delivering reliable data, reducing costs and speeding
time-to-market.
"We are excited to be launching the first CONNECT series, which
will bring Cascade Microtech's innovators and leaders closer to the
semiconductor process and production test engineers who face
escalating demands to produce more data, and to deliver products to
market, faster than ever before," said Debbora Ahlgren, Vice
President, Marketing. "This is a great opportunity for us to learn
from the folks on the cutting edge who are reacting to the market
drivers forcing changes in process technology. As a result, we can
put our innovative resources to work helping them overcome
challenges to test and measurement."
As a continuation of Cascade Microtech's focus on knowledge
exchange, we will be hosting the first Cascade Microtech user
meeting, COMPASS, on September 9th in Anaheim. Look for information
on the company's website.
