Micro-hole drilling for probe card applications can be effectively performed in a wide range of materials, including silicon nitride, polyimide, Ultem, and more.
Potomac Laser-Drilling Capabilities
Micro holes as small as 2 microns can be laser drilled with very tight positional tolerances over large areas. Depending on the desired thickness of the material, controlled tapered micro holes can be drilled to exact specification. Larger holes for assembly and orientation can also be drilled utilizing the same technology used for the micro holes.
Advantages of Laser-Drilling for Probe Cards
