Business Description
Cohu is a prominent provider of semiconductor test and inspection handlers, MEMS test modules, test contactors, thermal subsystems, and semiconductor automated test equipment used by worldwide semiconductor and electronics manufacturers and semiconductor test subcontractors. We provide a wide range of goods and services, and income from capital equipment items is driven by our customers capital expenditure budgets and spending habits, which frequently delay or accelerate purchases in response to changes in their company. These firms capital expenditures are determined by existing and expected market demand for semiconductor devices and the products that utilize them. Our recurrent sales are driven by an increase in the quantity of semiconductor devices evaluated as well as the ongoing launch of new products.
Semiconductor Test. Semiconductor Automated Test Equipment ('ATE') is used both for wafer level and device package testing. Our semiconductor ATE solutions consist primarily of two platforms focused on the system on a chip ('SoC') device market. The Diamond series platform, which includes the flagship Diamondx test system, offers high-density instrumentation for low-cost testing of microcontrollers, application specific standard products ('ASSP'), power management, display drivers, sensors and other mixed signal devices. The PAx series of testers is focused primarily on the RF Front End IC and Module market.
Semiconductor Handlers. Semiconductor test handlers are used in conjunction with semiconductor ATE to automate the testing of packaged semiconductor devices. Our handlers support a variety of package sizes and device types, including those used in automotive, mobile, industrial, computing applications, among others. We offer a broad range of test handlers, including pick-and-place, turret, gravity, strip, MEMS and thermal sub-systems, along with inspection handlers that perform automated optical inspection of semiconductor devices.
Interface Products. Our interface products are comprised of test contactors, probe heads and probe pins. Test contactors serve as the interface between the test handler and the semiconductor device under test such as digital semiconductor devices utilizing spring probe technology, power management and LED semiconductor devices utilizing cantilever technology, and RF semiconductor devices based on contacts designed to operate at high frequencies. Test contactors and probe heads are specific to individual semiconductor device designs, need to be replaced frequently and increase in size with the number of devices tested in parallel. Interface Products are included in our recurring revenues.
Data Analytics. Our data analytics product, DI-Core, is a comprehensive software suite used to optimize Cohu equipment performance. DI-Core provides real-time online performance monitoring and process control to improve utilization, manages preventative and predictive maintenance to improve overall equipment efficiency, links semiconductor tester, handler and test contactor data for intelligence and extended device tracking, and provides a knowledge database and unified reports for quickly identifying issues and retaining historical performance data.
Spares and Kits. We provide consumable, non-consumable and spare items that are used to maintain, sustain or otherwise enable customers' equipment to meet its performance, availability and production requirements. We also design and manufacture a wide range of device dedication kits that enable handlers to process different semiconductor packages. Spares and Kits are included in our recurring revenues.
Services. Our worldwide service organization performs installations and necessary maintenance of systems sold. We provide various parts and labor warranties on test and handling systems and instruments designed and manufactured by us and warranties on certain components that have been purchased from other manufacturers and incorporated into our test and handling systems. We also provide training on the maintenance and operation of our systems as well as application, data management software and consulting services on our products. Services are included in our recurring revenues.
