Market & trends

The semiconductor industry is driven by rapid innovation, shrinking geometries, and growing performance demands. Engineering teams must deliver reliable devices while accelerating development and scaling production.

Key challenges include:

  • High-precision probing and RF/mmWave testing
    Advanced nodes and high-frequency devices require extremely accurate, repeatable measurements.
  • Device characterization and validation
    Thorough electrical, functional, and parametric testing is essential to meet performance and yield targets.
  • Reliability and lifetime assurance
    Burn-in and stress testing are critical to identify failure mechanisms early.
  • Photonics and heterogeneous integration
    Emerging photonic and silicon photonic technologies introduce new optical and thermal test requirements.
  • Power semiconductor validation
    GaN and SiC devices demand specialized testing for efficiency, robustness, and safety.
  • Scalable test platforms
    R&D and production teams need flexible, integrated solutions to reduce test time and improve throughput.
