Test contactor series extended
THE Y-RED test contactor series from
Yamaichi Electronics is growing. In
addition to IC chip evaluation and
validation, the focus is now on failure
analysis applications and low
inductance laboratory
measurements.
The result of decades of
experience in designing full and
semi-custom test contactors, the Y-RED
combines high-grade
technology and standardised single
parts with simplified, user-friendly
mounting procedure.
The new Y-RED test contactor is
designed for sensory failure analysis
(FA). Through an opening in the lid,
the entire component is now visible
during testing. An inlaid scratch and
crack-resistant glass plate with a very
wide transmission curve ensures
uniform pressure distribution during
contacting. These are features to
perform chip analysis with Solid
Immersion Lens and Emission
Microscopy.

Hole measurement
probe now Wi-Fi
enabled
RIFTEK RF609 series laser
triangulation probes are specifically
designed for precision geometric
measurement and inspection of
small inner diameter holes, typically
from 9 to 48mm.
Now available with full support
from Riftek’s exclusive UK and
Ireland distribution partner, Ixthus
Instrumentation, a newly released
version adds a Wi-Fi interface to the
device to facilitate wireless
measurement of borehole diameter.
Developed for use as part of a
CNC machine’s automatic tool
changing system, these
ultracompact measurement probes
measure the distance to the hole
surface as the probe is rotated and
moved axially into the hole;
synchronously measuring the polar
surface coordinates which are
interpreted through PC software to
build a 3D geometric model pattern
with micron level accuracy.
The device is available in two
measurement versions allowing a
range of inner diameter
measurements to be made: 9 to
19mm or 16 to 48mm diameter with
maximum bore length of 139 and
143 mm respectively. Both probes
feature the 48 mm diameter main
controller, battery and Wi-Fi housing
with an extended shaft that houses
the laser triangulation sensor
scanning head. A 16 mm diameter
shaft facilitates straightforward collet
mounting on the CNC.
