<strong>Control</strong>ling the <strong>Damage</strong><br />
• The depth <strong>of</strong> the probe mark can be controlled with<br />
modifications to the probe card technology<br />
– Low force probe cards (various manufacturers)<br />
– Optimized probe to pad interactions<br />
• <strong>Prober</strong>s can effectively change the z-stage motion just<br />
before contact and during overtravel to reduce damage<br />
