Tempo Automation Accelerates EUV Tech’s Time to Market by Streamlining Prototyping

Tempo’s software-driven approach to smart electronics manufacturing saves EUV Tech weeks of development time for semiconductor manufacturing tools


SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tempo Automation, the world's leading software-accelerated electronics manufacturer, today announced that EUV Tech, a world-leading manufacturer of at-wavelength extreme ultraviolet (EUV) metrology equipment for semiconductor manufacturers, has dramatically improved program time for its new tools by working with Tempo to build its Printed Circuit Board Assemblies (PCBAs) faster than ever before.

“The speed and quality from Tempo have been game-changers for us. Our team can now iterate throughout the product development lifecycle, ultimately allowing us to build high-quality tools more rapidly than ever before,” said Chami Perera, Chief Operating Officer at EUV Tech. “We can now scale up our operations without having to rely on hiring more technicians to solder boards. We simply order large amounts of pre-assembled boards from Tempo so we can deliver different quantities of the same tool to different customers.”

With a long history of delivering tools to major semiconductor manufacturers worldwide, EUV Tech sets the benchmark for the strategic and rapid development of precision-built EUV tools. To meet its tight product development timelines, EUV Tech requires an ultra-efficient way to fabricate, assemble and integrate circuit boards into its tools, with the ability to prototype and iterate at the fastest pace possible. With Tempo's expertise in assembling high-quality boards rapidly, EUV Tech is able to focus on improvements that better fit the end product and test new designs on “right-the-first-time” assembled boards. High-quality boards delivered quickly saves EUV Tech up to four weeks of development time for projects that typically take roughly six months to complete.

Tempo has built circuit boards for a new, upgraded version of EUV Tech’s EUV Reflectometer and EUV Accelerated Exposure Tool. In the next year, Tempo will help EUV Tech produce the company’s EUV N&K Measurement Tool.
