Temperature Forcing Systems

The DCP-201 is ThermoSpot’s entry-level direct contact thermal cycling system — -55°C to +175°C with 40W cooling capacity at -40°C, no thermoelectric modules, and a ThermoBridge™ probe head that mates directly to the IC or device under test. For characterisation and failure analysis of moderate-power devices where air temperature forcing is too indirect.

The DCP-201 uses proprietary refrigeration, not thermoelectric modules, to deliver direct conductive thermal cycling to the device surface through an interchangeable ThermoBridge™ probe head. Where air-based systems struggle with high-power or high-thermal-mass devices, direct contact removes the air gap entirely. DUT temperature is closed-loop controlled via an attached thermocouple, diode, or RTD; a 5.25″ touchscreen handles profiling, ramp/soak, and cycle programming without external software.
