What it is

The Mitutoyo FS70 is a microscope head for semiconductor inspection. The FS70 series functions as a compact microscope unit for semiconductor probe stations.[2][3]

The FS70 belongs to optical measurement equipment used for inspection and quality assurance. The FS70 is positioned for reflected-light observation in semiconductor inspection environments.[1][3]

How it works

The FS70 series is compatible with YAG lasers and infrared optical systems. The FS70L supports laser wavelength ranges of 1064 nm, 532 nm, and 355 nm, while the FS70L4 supports 532 nm and 266 nm.[2][3]

Where it fits in the process flow

The FS70 supports non-contact visual inspection of semiconductor structures before or during electrical probing. The FS70 is also used in measurement and quality assurance tasks that require optical observation of small features.[1][2]

Applications

The FS70 series is used for semiconductor inspection and quality assurance. The FS70 series is also used for observations involving infrared optics and YAG-laser-compatible setups.[2][3]
