Since 1996, Astronics’ test solutions have evolved from
low-volume system-level test (SLT) to massively parallel test
solutions, including burn-in tools and system-level testers, to
keep pace with the increased volume and complexity of semiconductor
units under test. Astronics’ custom test solutions ensure optimal
performance of complex electronic products by providing increased
test coverage at a lower overall cost of test.
“This is an exciting time to design custom test solutions for
our semiconductor customers. We are honored by the trust that these
companies continue to place in our ability to tackle increasingly
complex test challenges,” said Jim Mulato, President of Astronics
Test Systems.
Innovations in semiconductor technology are driving the momentum
for SLT. Moore’s Law not only reduces the size of transistors, but
also causes a proportional increase in untested transistors as well
as yield overkill, also described as “throwing away good parts.”
Astronics SLT solutions improve fault coverage despite these new
test challenges.
Automotive semiconductor devices are newcomers to SLT and
gaining more attention in the test industry. Astronics Test Systems
will be at SEMICON West, presenting “Key Considerations for an
Automotive Semiconductor SLT Strategy,” at the Test Vision 2020
workshop. To learn more, visit Astronics Test Systems in booth
2405, July 10-12, 2018 at SEMICON West in San Francisco,
California, or online at Astronics.com.
Astronics Test Systems leverages nearly 60 years of experience
to offer automatic test expertise to electronics manufacturers in
the aerospace, military, semiconductor, medical, space, mass
transit, and automotive industries. Astronics’ test solutions
ensure the world’s most advanced electronic products perform as
designed, every time.
