Multi DUT cantilever probe cards can be manufactured in a large variety of configurations including x64, x48 x32, and  x16. 

Any number of die can be probed along the x axis and is limited only by the available open space on the pc-board.  Typically, a maximum of 6 columns of die can be probed along the Y axis.

Using proprietary tip shipping system designed by Apex, we can condition the needle tips to optimize performance.  In a recent evaluation at a major memory manufacture, Apex probe cards showed to have significant advantages over the competition.
