Intel Confidential CPU Development CF64BJF010 350-0919 305-0980A @ eBay

[FischOderAal]

Can you explain us what is it please?

Yupp, pretty please François

[JaD]

It's the interface between a wafer prober and the wafer itself.
The probe card connects to the wafer, so that the chips can be electrically tested. That's when working/non-working/half working chips are sorted out.

To clarify, the card is not simply some kind of "wafer socket", it's an electronic/mechanical device that connects to the dies with (literally) microscopical moving parts at nanometer scale.

Do not pay for confidential material, it is Intel property, you would only waste your money.

I sent the Intel Security guys on this one.

You must be lots of fun at parties.

[paulbagz]

What would someone even be able to accomplish with this device?

-PB

[FUGGER]

Nothing without the rest of it. history/show.

There may be some IP trade secrets there Francois wishes to protect.

[JaD]

Are you saying you endorse resale of stolen goods?

[Sparky]

Are you saying you endorse resale of stolen goods?

He didn't say that.

[Drwho?]

it is a S.CH.M.I.L.B.L.I.C.K, it is a very mysterious device that can connect to the continuum transfunctioner,
both devices are very mysterious and powerful devices and their mystery is exceeded only by it's power.

What the h%ll Coluche is doing in a XS thread ?

[Drwho?]

and NO "and then!?"

[JaD]

He didn't say that.

I know, I was being deliberately provocative. That card is stolen property, and I don't see what's wrong with taking steps to get it back instead of letting someone profit on it, not considering the potential loss of intellectual property.
It just doesn't sound like an overreaction to me; after all, he just alerted company personnel, not the police.

[kuroikenshi]

My interest on this device can only be rivaled by my interest on purchasing time-money wasting "time shares"

[Andrew LB]

when they are splayed out like that it is so you can tap into the data flow and monitor how it is working. and i am not sure why it dose it just reminds me of the core 2 duo.

Ahh. I understand now.

I've seen a lot of development tools over the years, just not one of these.

either intel security (or hired security firm) sucks at keeping track of and retaining the hardware, or you guys hired david blane.

Dude.... Where is my Car???? Dude??????!!!!












And then?

[ajaidev]

Did not see this thread...

The image on the first page is of a probe card, using them is a of a work "Very hard"

This seems like a epoxy ring cantilever needle design, number of probes depends on how old the card is so does the width.

Intel has people called module engineers who use/repair these for IC testing. Now a days over current is an issue and protection is needed on top of the card, 1-1.1V with a 230-250W range. Contact resistance is measured before hand since these new IVB are a lot weak compared to say a P3 structurally. Parallel resistance is calculated from CR not to mention IR losses.

You missed one, and the profit from this one even goes to non-profit organization(s)... though maybe those others do too, I didnt bother to check after noticing this.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI...m=261062263107

i dont think intel is after these old items.

[kuroikenshi]

Oh no! Security breach.... Quickly Francois... To the Chip-Mobile!

Guy's i'm sorry to point the obvious but these are definitely dismissed parts and w/o few million there no way to make something out of it.
U'll be missing the prober, the software/driver and the technical know how plus another big component: the undiced silicon array GL with that LOL!
So, unless u are the commissioner it can be an alternative way for wasting money..
but.. keep in mind that, as someone said, u'll have one hell nice drink coaster after all :P


Edit: i don't know it's purpose.

Looks like some old intel probe cards, used for parametric CPU tests.

[Diverge]

It's an formfactor MEMS probe card.

Looks more like a loadboard for an ATE tester to me.

If it were a probe card the CPU wouldn't be packaged and mounted to it. Same principal though. Probe cards are for testing unpackaged die. Loadboard are for testing packaged semiconductors.

here's a octal site loadboard from my job w/ all the hardware on it to mount to a handler.


The intel one was probably used for test development, since it doesn't look like it's setup for running production testing on.

I might be wrong but it seems one custom truescale from formfactor ( 2007-2011 ).
