NORWOOD, Mass., July 13, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Semiconductor Tester Group of Xcerra Corporation (Nasdaq:XCRA), today introduced the DxV, an ultra-compact ATE with five high performance instrument slots, designed for evaluation lab and production use. The DxV enables new ways to reduce time from design validation to volume production.
Combined with existing tools the DxV enables customers to efficiently improve their time-to-volume. The comprehensive Xcerra toolset supports the entire process from design to validation to production readiness and finally high volume production.
The DxV is a five slot variant of the successful Diamondx platform. It is a compact self-contained single ‘box’ solution providing slots for a range of standard Diamondx instruments. The DxV features a fully integrated, production worthy ATE design in ultra-small dimensions, portability, and low weight. The system is designed for low acoustic noise of 55dB enabling easy deployment in office spaces and engineering labs.
For initial production applications the DxV features direct or cable dock, and a light portable manipulator option. The DxV is easy to set up and runs the full suite of Unison production tools. The DxV facilitates the transition to high volume production on the Diamondx, as it uses the same programming environment and runs the same test program.
Steve Wigley, vice president of Xcerra’s semiconductor tester group, commented, “We challenged our engineering team to innovate a high performance, ultra-compact ATE and they delivered. The DxV provides a low cost, high density ATE in a small portable and flexible package. DxV offers all the advantages of a mainstream ATE, such as Diamondx, in a footprint about the size of a personal computer.”
