Taiwanese maker of IC test handlers and thermal control systems used in semiconductor final test.
Taiwanese maker of IC test handlers and thermal control systems used in semiconductor final test.
Sells machines that load chips into test sockets and hold their temperature during final testing, paid per machine, so orders follow the capacity plans of packaging and test houses and swing with chip-test equipment spending. Active temperature control, which keeps hot AI processors within range during test, is the newer part of the business.
In one line: A small Taiwan Cohu (test handlers).
Moat: narrow (IP / patents, process know-how). 600+ patents in thermal control and high-speed parallel testing; equipment must be qualified per test program.
Headquarters: Taichung, Taiwan · Founded: 1999 · Employees: 746
