Unisem Sunnyvale continues to expand capabilities with new 12-inch Accretech wafer prober

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA: Unisem announced that it has now added 12-inch wafer probing capability to its test floor in Sunnyvale, CA. Accretech’s next generation prober, the UF3000EX will not only provide twelve inch probe capability but also has many other key features such as high speed wafer handling, a low-noise XY stage, and industry leading accuracy with its OTS (Optical Target Scope) positioning technology.

“The Accretech UF3000EX provides our factory with a state of the art system for wafer probe that will also give us the option to probe twelve inch wafers. Wafer probe has over the last year become a key part of our business in Sunnyvale,” said Marita Erickson, general manager at Unisem Sunnyvale.

Unisem Sunnyvale is actively evolving its test floor to not only ensure that our customers have the latest test platforms and equipment to choose from, but to also set up the test floor in Sunnyvale to more accurately reflect the test floors in our three high volume Asia factories. This provides Unisem customers with a clear path for the growth of their business from development stage to a smooth transition to volume production in Asia.
