Global Connectors leader Smiths Interconnect Releases Volta 180 Series Probe Heads to Improve the Performance of Wafer Test Solutions

On November 30, 2020, Smiths Interconnect, a global semiconductor test solution provider, released a new Volta180 test head to expand the Volta product line, supporting the market’s acceptance of smaller pitch wafer sizes, wafer-level chip packaging and known qualified chips (Known Good Die) test requirements. The Volta product series is an enhanced solution from Smiths Intercom, which can quickly and reliably test wafer-scale packages and wafer-level packages with a minimum lead pitch of 180um to ensure that they meet specifications and meet end product application performance.

The new Volta180 series pin minimum pitch (PITCH) is reduced to 180um, which is an enhanced wafer-level test solution with the following performance advantages:

Volta 180 can maintain low and stable resistance even after 750,000 cycles of life test, thus providing high-precision measurement. Excellent needle coplanarity can meet 64 stations, and 5000 probes can be tested at the same time to improve production efficiency. Modular needle design can ensure quick replacement during maintenance and almost zero downtime. The full probe array design allows the probe position to be configured according to different products on site, so that a single Volta 180 probe head can test multiple products.
