Playwell Bricks is pleased to share this custom designed probe station set created for FormFactor, a commission that came through Cubik Promotions. “They pitched a bunch of FormFactor products to us,” recalls Playwell Bricks CEO Jason Pyett, who designed this set. “The CM300xi probe station is the one that stuck.”

“It’s a fully automated probe station,” Jason explains. “These probe stations are created for precision testing with radio frequencies in semiconductor manufacturing. It’s fairly high tech.”

Thankfully, Jason is happy to break it down into bricks for the less technical among us. “It’s a machine. It has a computer on one side and a drawer. And this head unit on the top. That’s all I know,” he says with a laugh.

After the initial design was complete, Jason sent the instructions along to Playwell Bricks team member and fellow designer Eric Dubois Yang for the test build. After a thorough review from Eric, the pair tweaked the probe station’s structure until it was as precise as the testing this probe does in real life.

Well, maybe not THAT precise.

After delivery, this custom Playwell Bricks set made an appearance at the International Microwave Symposium in Washington, DC, last June. Conference goers who visited FormFactor’s booth had the chance to win their very own custom Playwell Bricks probe station.

“The client was really happy with the set,” Jason says with pride. “They even came back and ordered more, which, of course, is the best kind of feedback.”
