Unisem Europe adds Verigy’s V93000 test platform to expand testing capabilities for wireless/RF devices

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA: Unisem has added a V93000 Port Scale RF tester from Verigy, an Advantest Group company, to its European test development center in Wales. The versatile test platform will be used to test and develop a broad range of wireless radio frequency (RF) and complex mixed-signal semiconductors for Unisem’s European customer base.

Designed for high-volume testing of wireless devices for mobile computing applications including consumer electronics, Verigy’s V93000 Port Scale RF system provides parallel test capability with high multi-site efficiency, achieving industry-leading productivity.

Equipped with Verigy’s pin-scale digital cards, the V93000 platform’s performance can be fine-tuned for different types of semiconductors. This gives Unisem the versatility to test a wide variety of ICs ranging from low-integration devices such as power amplifiers, tuners and transceivers up to high-integration RF devices containing integrated mixed-signal, digital, power management and embedded or stacked memory.

"As Unisem expands its RF testing business, we’re very pleased that they have selected our V93000 system, with its best-in-class throughput and low cost-of-test,” said Pascal Ronde, Verigy’s executive VP of worldwide sales, service and support.

"The addition of this V93000 test system opens up new markets for both Europe and our Asia factories,” said Andy Perry, GM, Unisem Europe. "Our Wales factory serves as our European development center, where we work with our customers to create the best production-ready assembly and test solutions. We can now offer our customers a versatile testing solution within Europe and provide a future migration path to our high-volume factories in Asia."
