Company profile
IRE SEMITEC CO., LTD describes itself as a total-solution provider for semiconductor test fields and states that it has grown with the semiconductor testing area for 20 years since being founded in 2004. Its manufacturing base uses ultra-fine processing technology built on mechanical grinding and special etching processes. The company produces probe needles used in semiconductor EDS inspection equipment. IRE SEMITEC also produces low-leakage probe cards using platinum-needle probe-card production technology developed through its special coating process. The company states that it has secured patents for this platinum-needle probe-card technology. Quality is managed with the company's self-developed Auto Vision Inspection System (AVIS). Production is carried out in accordance with ISO9001 and ISO14001 certification standards to support product quality. The company states that 70% of its major clients are from the United States, China, Japan, Taiwan and Singapore. Its processing support includes instrumentation and test analysis required from R&D through real-time production. IRE SEMITEC's R&D and QA departments cooperate on demanding requirements for reliability, testing and verification. The IRE SEMITEC Research Institute continuously develops new materials and probe needles for fine-pitch applications. The institute also develops products in medical fields and takes on specialized small-scale manufacturing for R&D purposes. IRE SEMITEC states that its semiconductor-testing work is supported by R&D in new materials and nano-processing. The company commits to continued R&D investment, product development and supply of high-quality products at reasonable prices as part of its effort to be a trusted partner for clients. Its stated goal is to provide total solutions that create sustainable future value in response to changing semiconductor-market trends and technological development.
Exhibits
IRE SEMITEC provides probe needles, also called probe tips or needle probes, in multiple materials, lengths, shapes and tip radii for making probe cards used in semiconductor wafer-chip testing. Its cantilever-probe range includes wire-etched and mechanically ground needles as well as LED probes. Vertical-probe options include flat, pointed, headed and straight Cobra configurations together with wire probes. The company also supplies custom-designed test sockets that act as electro-mechanical interfaces between a chip and automated test equipment. These test sockets are designed to provide very clean electrical signal paths, while pogo pins are mounted on high-accuracy machined jigs that receive and guide semiconductor chips to the correct contact point. IRE SEMITEC supplies coaxial cable built with a metal shield and other components intended to block signal interference. Customized cable options include Hard-line, Triaxial, Rigid-line and Radiating cables for different connection requirements. The company provides customized processing services for micro-precision tubes with high heat resistance and insulation. Epoxy materials are supplied for bonding and potting operations used with rectifiers, high-power units and semiconductors. The epoxy offering is described in terms of strength, durability and humidity performance for those bonding and potting applications.
