    * When C0 and VR are enabled

    ** The speed at which F1 chuck moves varies depending on the chuck size chosen by the customer, the chuck construction (Coax or Triax), and whether the chuck supports high and low temperatures

    *** This time only refers to the mechanical movement time and does not include alignment time. There will be some variation depending on the size of the DUT, movement precision, and stability requirements

    *** High speed and high stability cannot be achieved simultaneously. Eoulu can provide services to optimize test accuracy or test speed according to the customer'swafer and measurement application. For more information, please contact sales for hardware and software upgrade solutions

    **** In the case of 8-inch, room temperature, and triax chuck, F1 adopts the highest accuracy and most stable speed mode, 1000 μm * 1000 μm chip movement time

    ***** It varies according to the configuration and the customer's requirements for accuracy and speed. The minimum value of XY position locking can be achieved by selecting CCD, which cannot be achieved by standard CCD.

    ****** The standard deviation of the probe scrub mark length σ is ≤ 5μm. We can refer to the futureD product data of Eoulu to measure more than 2,000 DUTs of 8-inch wafers. Under the high-precision wafer running mode, the probe scrub mark length difference from DUT to DUT is guaranteed to be within 3σ

    ****** The standard deviation of the starting position of the probe mark σ is ≤ 8μm. We can refer to the futureD product data of Eoulu to measure 2000 DUTs of 8-inch wafer. Under the high-precision and low-speed wafer running mode, the difference in starting position from DUT to DUT is guaranteed to be within 3σ

    ****** The above data indicators are not lower than the level of peers,refer to the article published by the peer on August 22, 2022

    17Statement

    It shall be operated and stored strictly in accordance with the temperatureand humidity

    specified in "Environmental conditions" in this Manual.

    Before the probe station leaves the factory, wafers shall be placed on chuck for performance

    verification and reliability test. Therefore, the scratches on the surface of chuck or the movable

    plate cannot be completely avoided.The scratches do not affect the use of the probe station

    and are not considered as a quality problem.

    Before the thermal probe station leaves the factory, heating and cooling test shall be conducted

    on the thermal system and thermal chuck.Therefore, the baking marks on the surface of

    the chuck (e.g. chuck color change and water vapor mark)cannot be completely avoided.

    The baking marks do not affect the use of the equipment and are not considered as a quality

    problem.

    When ambient temperature fluctuations occur, thermal expansion and contraction of

    equipment hardware constitutes a normal operational phenomenon.

    To ensure the reliability and consistency of test results, if the probe station remains continuously

    powered on and idle for 24 hours or longer, the user must perform system recalibration and

    reinitialize parameter settings.

    For high-precision, extended-duration (>6h) metrology of individual wafer,

    implementation of the Eoulu software application kit with associated service package is

    recommended.

    If ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection is required for the equipment, please explicitly

    state this before procurement. The F1 Probe Station provides ESD protection for key modules

    (Chuck, Robotic arm ). However, please note that ESD protection cannot be guaranteed for all

    components of the equipment. Certain materials and structures cannot achieve ESD protection

    through conventional processes. Forced modifications may lead to performance degradation,

    reduced service life, or significantly increased costs. Any equipment malfunctions resulting from

    such modifications will not be covered under the product warranty.

    Safety statement

    This product is driven by 24 V DC motor, with an operating voltage level comparable to that of a personal computer (PC). It complies with the specifications for SELV (Safety Extra-Low Voltage) circuits as defined in IEC 61010-1 and meets the protection class against electric shock for Class III equipment as specified in IEC 61140. Based on this design, the Emergency Stop Device (EMO) or Electromagnetic Braking System (EMS) does not provide additional safety benefits.

    Note: This statement does not affect other mechanical safety requirements that the equipment

    shall meet.

    19Cleaning

    Clean the probe station once a month. Use a soft dust-free cloth to remove the dirt from chuck.

    If lots of dust and debris are generated during use,cleaning frequency shall be increased.

    Do not use isopropyl alcohol(IPA) or any other chemicals on the chuck, as improper use

    of solvents or grinding agents may damage the probe station.

    20Maintenance

    No items can be placed on the chuck except the device under test.

    If the screws are loose, promptly tighten them carefully and evenly according to the torque

    requirements. If necessary, contact the Eoulu's service team for treatment.

    For the fully-automated probe station, ensure that the power supply has been properly

    shut down during maintenance or when not in use, and ensure they do not accidentally

    restart before maintenance is completed or before use.

    21Service

    For probe station with a high utilization rate, it is recommended to conduct operational

    inspection and service of the chuck once a year.

    The following services can only be executed by Eoulu's team:

    1. Leveling and calibration of the chuck X/Y/Z/Theta stage

    2. Disassembly and installation of the chuck

    22Eoulu high performance thermal Chuck8.jpg12.jpg

    * Users can choose in these temperature ranges according to test requirements

    ** For other temperature ranges, please contact Eoulu's sales

    ** The larger the temperature range, the higher the purchase cost. Testing below room temperature requires cooling, and the lower the temperature,

        the higher the purchase cost. Please select the appropriate temperature range according to the actual test requirements

    ** Automatic wafer testing in high and low temperature,it is recommended to use motorized positioners

    *** Measured in 20°C~24°C , 40%~50% humidity

    *** High voltage and high current cannot be reached at the same time

    *** Higher voltage or higher current need to be customized
