Leading semiconductor test equipment supplier Advantest Corporation (TSE: 6857) today announced its industry-first ACS Adaptive Probe Cleaning (APC) solution to optimize the probe card cleaning cycle with efficacy. Part of Advantest’s ACS open solution ecosystem, APC has been proven with customers throughout Asia and Europe. STMicroelectronics has installed ACS APC at two of its manufacturing sites and is seeing cleaning cycle times slashed significantly to effective improves yield, lengthen probe card life cycle and increase system available time for test.
