Antares and Aehr Test Systems partner to address TDBI market
-- Test & Measurement World, 8/25/2008 7:57:00 AM
Antares and Aehr Test Systems have announced that they have agreed to work together to address the establishment of a strategic partnership to jointly pursue the high-power, individual temperature control (ITC), test during burn-in (TDBI) market for packaged devices that dissipate up to 75 W per device.
The partnership between the companies comes as Antares and Aehr expand their presence in Israel. The companies report that the Israeli Test House (ITH) will soon take delivery of an Antares iSocket individual thermal-management system system integrated into an Aehr Test MAX4-200 TDBI system that will be used for independent thermal management of high-power (75-W) devices.
The system will effectively give ITH the ability to efficiently burn-in a mixed lot of both high- and low-power DUTs in the same system, according to Chris Lopez, Antares' manager of thermal solutions.
"The system essentially gives ITH a flexible and cost-effective burn-in solution with a quick turnaround to implementation," Lopez said.
"High-power TDBI is a rapidly growing market that is underserved today," said Rhea Posedel, chairman and CEO of Aehr Test Systems, adding, "Our two companies have been working together informally for some time now on several successful projects, so it makes sense to go ahead and formalize the relationship," Posedel said.
"By combining our individual companies' expertise, we will be able to provide a complete solution to those customers who need this capability," said Matt Bergeron, CEO of Antares.
