The LED device market is growing, driven by the current trend in key energy segments to reduce power consumption for lighting and electronics. According to NextGen Research, the illumination segment of the LED market will lead with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of nearly 22% in the 2009-2013 timeframe. They claim the display portion of the market should achieve a five-year CAGR of over 14% as cities worldwide shift their streetlights to these more energy-efficient and ecologically friendly solutions.
The Summit 12000 HS system was designed to support high-throughput production test for these growth markets and provide superior cost-of-ownership through yield improvements and reduced manufacturing costs. The Summit 12000 HS enables high throughput using a unique software automation capability that allows one station to be used for multiple tests, eliminating numerous operator steps. The Summit 12000 HS system software tools offer unique wafer stepping patterns and pattern recognition to improve accuracy.
