MEMS Handlers—Laser Applications

Below are handlers that Exatron has built to laser-mark and inspect various MEMS devices.

 Laser Marking and Inspection of MEMS Capacitors

  • Strip magazine input/output tables
  • Fully enclosed
  • Handler control
  • Dual monitors
  • Handler PC on left
  • Machine vision PC on right
  • Laser PC in OEM cabinet
  • Multiple strip types marked & inspected by same handler
  • 40 strips per magazine
  • Movable table holds 8 magazines
  • Strip at laser mark site
  • Strip at inspection site

 Laser Marking and Inspection of DLP (Digital Light Processing) Chips

  • JEDEC-tray laser marker
  • Tray stackers in left cabinet
  • Laser marking & inspection in right cabinet
  • In-tray inspection & marking at same position


  • Machine vision:
  1. Finds location of each device
  2. Aligns laser mark to each device
  3. After marking, verifies 2D bar code
  • Laser:
  1. Device starts with ink mark
  2. Ink mark is "erased" by laser
  3. Device is laser marked
  • In-line Exatron Peregrine programmer
  • Peregrine programmer makes contact directly to devices in JEDEC tray

 Laser Marking and Inspection of Audio Sensors

  • Dual cameras
  • Read bar code from card bottom
  • Laser mark 10-digit 2D bar codes as small as 0.020" / 0.5mm square on each device on card top side
  • Verify bar code mark
  • Small footprint
