Aehr Secures Order for FOX-P™ System from New Customer Skorpios Technologies for Test and Burn-in of Silicon Photonics Devi...
June 04 2019 - 1:52PM
Aehr Test Systems (NASDAQ: AEHR), a worldwide
supplier of semiconductor test and burn-in equipment, today
announced it has received an order from new customer Skorpios
Technologies, Inc., a vertically integrated silicon photonics
company, for its FOX-P test and burn-in system. This high-power
test and reliability verification solution will be used to perform
100% wafer level test and burn-in for infant mortality and aging of
Skorpios’ silicon photonics devices as part of a significant
production ramp to meet demand for high speed optical transceivers.
Stephen Krasulick, Co-Founder, CEO & Chairman of the Board
of Skorpios said, “We selected Aehr’s FOX-P Platform because it
provides a full-wafer reliability verification and test solution
that allows us to meet the high-volume production test requirements
we are building out at Skorpios to address the demand for high
speed optical communications. We look forward to working with Aehr
Test to support our growing production needs.”
Gayn Erickson, President and CEO of Aehr, commented, “We
are delighted to announce this new customer relationship with
Skorpios, beginning with this order for our FOX-P test and burn-in
system to support their production ramp of their silicon photonics
devices. We are able to provide a seamless transition from
initial production to very high volume within our FOX-P family with
our new FOX-NP system along with our high-volume production FOX-XP
multi-wafer test and burn in systems.”
Aehr’s FOX-P Platform is the company’s next-generation
multi-wafer and singulated die/module test solution that is capable
of functional test and burn-in/cycling of photonics devices, flash
memories, microcontrollers, sensors, and other leading-edge ICs
before they are assembled into single or multi-die stacked
packages. The FOX wafer-level systems utilize Aehr’s FOX
WaferPak™ contactors, which provide cost effective solutions
for making electrical contact with a full wafer or substrate in a
multi-wafer environment. The configuration with the DiePak®
Carriers enables burn-in of singulated die and multi-die modules to
screen for defects in both the die and the module assembly process.
The resulting known-good die, single-die or stacked-die packaged
parts can then be used for high reliability and quality
applications such as enterprise solid state drives, automotive
devices, highly valuable mobile applications, and mission critical
integrated circuits and sensors.
The key features of the FOX-P Platform that contribute to the
cost-effectiveness of the solution include the ability to provide
up to 2,048 “Universal Channels” per wafer or DiePak carrier, which
allows the system to test all the devices on the wafer or DiePak
carrier in parallel. The innovative “Universal Channel”
architecture allows any channel to be any function (I/O, Device
Power Supply (DPS) or Per-pin Precision Measurement Unit (PPMU)).
This enhanced architecture now allows customers to perform per pin
parametric testing, more extensive digital pattern test with deeper
data stimulus / capture memory (32M per pin), and deeper scan
(768M) optimized for BIST/DFT testing. A single FOX-XP test system
may be configured with up to 18 blades of wafer test resources,
enabling up to 18 wafers to be tested simultaneously. The footprint
of the 18-wafer test system is similar to the footprint of typical
semiconductor Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) that can only test one
wafer at a time. The highly integrated 2-blade FOX-NP system has a
very small footprint and is designed to be easily integrated into
product design, reliability and test lab applications.
