POWAY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 7, 2016--
Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ:COHU) a leading supplier of semiconductor equipment
announced today the introduction of RF Scrub contactor for testing a
wide spectrum of devices with frequencies up to 33 GHz.
Secular growth of internet traffic is demanding faster wireless speeds
that drive expansion of RF products, like near-field communications,
filters, switches and power amplifiers. These semiconductors play a
critical role in connectivity, especially in feature-rich smartphones
designed to operate across multiple bands, like 2G, 3G and 4G LTE
networks, as well as WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS, and the emerging IoT
(Internet of Things).
The RF Scrub contactor has been in production for several months at five
customers, validating the innovative long-life, elastomer-free solution
for testing high frequency semiconductors at various temperatures used
in consumer and automotive end-market applications. Cohu will be
showcasing RF Scrub and other innovative test contactors at the Burn-in
& Test Strategies (BiTS) Workshop on March 7-9 in Mesa, Arizona.
About Cohu:
Cohu is a leading supplier of semiconductor test and inspection
handlers, micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS) test modules, test
contactors and thermal sub-systems used by global semiconductor
manufacturers and test subcontractors.
Forward Looking Statements:
Certain matters discussed in this release, including statements
concerning Cohu's test contactor products and growth aspirations are
forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
projected or forecasted. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are
not limited to, our ability to convert new products under development
into production on a timely basis, support product development and meet
customer delivery and acceptance requirements for next generation
equipment, failure to obtain customer acceptance resulting in the
inability to recognize revenue and accounts receivable collection
problems, our reliance on patents and intellectual property, compliance
with U.S. export regulations, and the cyclical and unpredictable nature
of capital expenditures by semiconductor manufacturers. These and other
risks and uncertainties are discussed more fully in Cohu's filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the most recently
filed Form 10-K and Form 10-Q. Cohu assumes no obligation to update the
information in this release.
