ChipSHOUTER Users Manual: XY(Z) Table Connection
62
XY(Z) Table Connection
The ChipSHOUTER requires steady positioning over the target,
and some form of support is needed. A number of possible so-
lutions can be used here depending on budget and required
accuracy. It is also recommended to include positioning
ability, to more precisely adjust the location of the Chip-
SHOUTER on the chip surface.
NewAE Technology Inc provides the ChipShover™ which has
included mounting brackets and easy integration with the
ChipSHOUTER environment. NewAE Technology Inc also provides
a manual XY table, which can be later upgraded to the elec-
tronic version.
Alternatively, you can use a variety of 3
rd
party solu-
tions. These include anything from using a maneuverable vise
(such as the Panavise®), a 3D printer gantry, or a commer-
cial microscope positioning stage. See the ChipSHOUTER
website for more information and examples of these position-
ing solutions.
