Business Wire
Verigy (NASDAQ: VRGY), a premier semiconductor test company, today
announced an agreement with DELTA Microelectronics, a leading
provider of engineering and testing services to fabless
semiconductor companies in Europe. Verigy and Delta are
collaborating to provide best-in-class engineering, ramp-up and
final testing support, in Europe as well as in Asia and the U.S.
DELTA has purchased two Verigy V93000 Pin Scale systems with RF
capability, which will be used for engineering, characterization
and volume test on wafer and in final test for high-performance RF
applications such as Bluetooth, GSM, UWB, FireWire and W-LAN. As
part of the arrangement, Verigy will provide test expertise and
support to DELTA customers. DELTA selected the V93000 RF test
solution for the excellent yield and throughput of its unique
multi-site test capability, which enables lower test cost per good
device. In addition, Verigy is adding test know-how to support
these customers and will also provide support as the devices are
outsourced. �Working with Verigy will allow us to provide our
customers with access to the best available RF test solutions and
to benefit directly from Verigy�s test expertise and large
installed base,� said Per Olund Hansen, executive vice president,
DELTA. �Our arrangement with Verigy is part of our ongoing
commitment to providing fabless companies with the best test
solutions available.� �The lower cost-of-test enabled by the
high-performance V93000 Pin Scale systems� accuracy and multi-site
capabilities is critical for fabless customers like DELTA�s,� said
Pascal Ronde, vice president of sales, service and support, Verigy.
�Our well established and growing market share throughout the
supply chain in Asia will also make it easy for DELTA�s customers
who outsource to manufacturers there.� The two companies will
exhibit jointly May 14 � 15, 2007 at the 2007 IET (The Institution
of Engineering and Technology) & FSA (Fabless Semiconductor
Association) International Semiconductor forum in Paris, France.
