FlipScribe ® 100 Scribing Solution from LatticeGear

Scribing Reinvented. The FlipScribe® enables users to view and position front side targets while scribing the back. The FlipScribe is a rapid, accurate, cost-effective, stable and compact scribing  solution; ideal for any lab, and without the need for utilities. Scribing accuracy can be attained without causing any damage to the sample surface using a fixed, robust diamond scribe which is incorporated into a sample platform with a fence guide design.

Benefits

The key benefits of the FlipScribe are as follows:

  • No Scribe damage to the front of the sample
  • Flexible with respect to sample shape and dimensions and material
  • Scribing Accuracy ±200 µm (achievable)
  • Allows for precise and repeatable downsizing
  • Capable of scribing bonded crystalline and amorphous wafers and chips for subsequent cleaving
  • Enables accurate cleaving through frontside targets with a scribe made on the backside of the substrate
  • Assures a straight and fine scribe line for clean, straight cleaves
  • Quick and simple to use
  • No service contracts required, user maintained

Features

The main features of the FlipScribe include the following:

  • The tool is purely mechanical, so power is not required
  • The length of the scribe varies from 1 mm to 100 mm
  • Prealigned multi faceted diamond scriber is in a user-replaceable cartridge; with angle and height adjustable
  • Ruler embedded in the surface allows for accurate positioning of the scribe relative to features on the front; (the front being observed either with a stereoscope or by eye)
  • Optional sample holders for wafers and small pieces enable a hands off, repeatable process keeping the sample clean and secure while assuring a straight, even scribe
