March 20, 2012. Interconnect Devices Inc. (IDI), a manufacturer of spring contact probes, test sockets, and custom interconnect products, has announced the launch of two patent-pending products in its semiconductor test line.
The Monet product incorporates the replaceability, compliance, and robustness of a traditional spring probe product with the coplanarity and fine pitch requirements of wafer level test. The Monet product is designed for WLCSP pitches of 0.25 mm and below.
The DaVinci socket features a 100% coaxial signal path, tip to tip. Integrating a distinctive material composition with two proprietary probe designs makes the DaVinci result in a durable and rigid product achieving test speeds of greater than 35 GHz or 20 Gbps in high-volume manufacturing.
“The introduction of the Monet Solution and DaVinci Socket embody IDI’s passion to develop innovative connections. Like their namesakes, these products are creative, unique and superior in their design and performance. We expect them to have a tremendous impact on their respective markets and to enable innovation in future semiconductor ICs,” stated Gabriel Guglielmi, IDI’s president.
