FormFactor - Cascade Resistive Matching and Termination - Custom configured for your application
-
Can help to stabilize oscillations in high-gain devices
-
Impedance match to low dynamic resistance laser diodes
-
Custom configured for your application
Resistive Impedance Matching Probes and Termination probes are available for the following probe families: Infinity; ACP; FPC, in multiple configurations. We use high performance / high quality RF resistors for these Matching or Termination probes and the resistors are placed as close as possible to the tip/DUT, to minimize the path length between the DUT and the resistor. The available Resistance values are limited and are listed in the request form. These types of Impedance Matching and Termination probes are used in various application such as with laser diodes, Transmission Line Pulse, ensure better termination of 50 ohm test equipment when mated to high impedance devices, etc.

The low frequency tuners are a unique product technology using MPT algorithms for low frequency wideband tuning. Three or more cascaded tuning sections use series transmission cables and parallel rotary capacitors.
The length of the cables and number of tuning sections are optimized for maximum tuning range over a given bandwidth. HLFT tuners use 6 tuning sections allowing second harmonic frequency tuning.

- DC-40 GHz bandwidth
- 10 ps rise time
- Low insertion and return loss
- 2 mils of tip-to-tip compliance
- High probing angle and clearance

-
Load-lock chamber: Cycle devices 10X faster in a cryogenic environment
-
High-density electrical interface at cryogenic temperatures: More pins on the device enables more test structures to be probed with a single cooldown
-
Base temperature of < 2K or < 4K with high cooling power: Test devices at the temperatures that matter most for pre- screening and evaluating device performance
-
Low vibration: Stable contact with the device under test and enables low noise measurements
