Probe Tips
Probe Tips for Four-Point Probe, CV/IV and Parametric Test Systems
Probe tips are consumable contacts used in four-point probe, resistivity measurement, CV/IV and parametric test systems. Tip material and geometry directly affect contact quality, measurement accuracy and wafer surface integrity.
MDC Europe supplies a range of probe tips in multiple materials and geometries, configured for standard probe holders and semiconductor measurement platforms. Tips are supplied 5 per box. All probes have a shaft diameter of 0.020″ to 0.025″ and fit standard probe holders, except Model 896-PRB-01 which requires a special retractable holder.
Probe Tip Selection Criteria
Probe tips are selected based on:
- contact material and tip radius suited to the wafer surface
- current requirements and contact resistance constraints
- compatibility with the probe holder and measurement system
Probe Tips Portfolio
MDC Europe provides probe tips including:
- PSE-T — Tungsten, standard general purpose, 5 µm tip
- PSE-GA — Flexible tungsten, 0.5 µm tip radius, contact retention
- PSE-TB — Tungsten blunt, general purpose, 25 µm tip
- PSE-O — Osmium, low contact resistance, 12 µm tip radius
- PSE-S — Steel, very hard, poly contact
- PSE-TC — Tungsten carbide, very hard, 10 µm tip radius
- PSE-P — Palladium, low contact resistance
- PSE-CW — Tungsten “cat whisker”, clean metal contact only
- PSE-BC — Beryllium copper, high current, 12 µm tip radius
- 896-PRB-01 — Tungsten retractable, spring-loaded, 0.002″ diameter tip
