Overview

The Horizon 4000 Series of automatic wafer probers consists of four models, Horizon 4060X, Horizon 4080X, Horizon 4085X and Horizon 4090, the latter being introduced in 1996. This product line is positioned to satisfy high volume semiconductor manufacturing applications. The Horizon 4000 Series provides many advanced automation capabilities including automatic probe-to-pad optimization and alignment, in-process inspection and optical character recognition. Optional for Horizon Series probers is a temperature controlled chuck top, providing the ability to maintain precisely a customer-selected wafer temperature during testing. The Horizon 4060X, Horizon 4080X and Horizon 4090 utilize the Company's EGCommander system software.
