Overview

Automated IC handler features remote operation and thermal control to increase the productivity of semiconductor engineering labs. Today's mobile electronics market consumes large volumes of ICs that require high power dissipation during device characterization and pre-production bring up. To test these devices, IDMs and OSATs need systems capable of cost-efficient thermal control and automated device handling. Advantest's M4171 single-site handler combines these capabilities in a portable design that is ideally suited for use in engineering environments.
