LMS-91A Temperature Chuck Adapter Available for J microTechnology's LMS-2709 Laboratory Microprobe Station.


Adds temperature control and enhanced heat sink A material that absorbs heat. Typically made of aluminum, heat sinks are widely used in amplifiers and other electronic devices that build up heat. Small heat sinks are the most economical method for cooling microprocessors and other chips.  to probed test device

PORTLAND, Ore. -- J microTechnology Microtechnology is technology with features near one micrometre (one millionth of a metre, or 10-6 metre, or 1μm).

In the 1960s, scientists learned that by arraying large numbers of microscopic transistors on a single chip, microelectronic circuits could be

 Station. The chuck adds temperature control and enhanced heat sink capability, enabling measurements at non-ambient temperatures on the device being tested. The LMS-91A provides the advantage of low-cost thermal electric (TE) temperature control to microprobe technology on bench-top test applications for scientists and engineers.

J microTechnology's chuck operates at a temperature range of minus 5 degrees to 130 degrees Celsius (C). The temperature changes at approximately 2 seconds per degree, with temperature stability at better than 0.2 degrees C. This allows rapid change in operating point temperature and a stable test condition. The chuck is isolated from the stage and microprobe station base to allow test of back-side active semiconductors.

Since all semiconductor devices are temperature-sensitive and other materials have curie points, measurements at non-ambient temperatures are important for fundamental characterization. The LMS-91A thermal electric controller offers simplicity, reliability, and flexibility for routine and occasional measurements. Control temperature accuracy and easy operation are inherent with this product.

The LMS-91A attaches directly to the translation stage of the LMS-2709. Its XYZ XYZ

The LMS-2709 is a rugged and basic RF, DC probe station for research of advanced active and passive components, as well as for educational training of university students in the discipline of microwave microprobing.

Prices for the LMS-91A start at $6,000. Pricing can vary due to order configuration and shipping destination. Delivery is about 6 weeks.
