Although the market was slow in 2009, XYZTEC took the initiative to invest in long term projects, one of them being new products to address green technology, like solar, and semiconductor trends such as 3D and ever reducing geometry!
In addition, we experienced a 30% increase in personnel; not common during a recession. These efforts provide the source of our expectations for 2010.
In November last year and ready for 2010, we launched the EZ bond tester which sets new standards for ease of use. The EZ featuring improved efficiency and accuracy will provide more profitability for our customers.
Our expansion in global distribution and service will enable us to deliver these benefits and an all-round better service.
Throughout 2010 we will continue to invest in our product range responding to new technical challenges that our industry embraces daily.
With many of these developments well underway we are ready for the recovery and anticipate growth in 2010.

The benefits of larger wafers have been demonstrated over and over again, so the question is not if, but when, and more importantly, who; that is, who will pay the substantial development costs? The cost of moving to 200 mm ...

Brian Schmaltz, Western Area Sales Manager, NAMICS Technologies Inc.
I would expect to see 2012 continue to provide slow growth, as an industry I would predict 2012 to be a year of change. Continued trend to smaller, lighter, longer life portable electronics such as smart phones and tablets with communication to a network system at faster speeds (Cloud, 4G+). Packaging and manufacturing engineers pushing the boundaries with sub 28nm node, low-k ...

James Quinn, Vice President Global Sales & Marketing, Multitest
The semiconductor industry is moving into another year of uncertainty and challenge. In times of uncertainty, companies cope by driving innovation to achieve increased functionality, smaller dimensions, higher integration and less power consumption. "Cost of test", "more than Moore' is nothing new, but will stay in the focus for next year. Today, being a total solution supplier is more ...
