Palladium Alloys and Beryllium-Copper
Palladium alloys and beryllium-copper probes provide a "softer" alternative to traditional tungsten and tungsten-rhenium pins in wafer sort.
Paliney 7® is the perfect choice for wafer sort applications where high conductivity and minimizing pad damage are essential. APS's extensive experience with Paliney 7® and other palladium alloys makes it the optimal choice for customer's requiring pins in this material with either a sharp or radius tip. APS produces pins in Paliney 7® in diameters from .003" to .020".
Paliney 7® is an excellent choice for LCD and LED testing.
Silver plated beryllium-copper probes are another, less expensive choice for applications where good conductivity and low pad damage are important. APS produces the highest quality beryllium-copper probes with either sharp tips or radius tips in diameters from .004" - .030".
If you are interested in "softer metals" such as Paliney 7® or beryllium-copper you may also want to consider APS's proprietary, non-oxidizing material NewTek™.
