About SOC Test Equipment
SOC is an integrated circuit consisting of several transistors on a single chip. It finds application in embedded systems. It consists of single or multiple cores of microcontroller, microprocessor, digital signal processor, memory blocks, oscillators, timers and counter-timers, external interfaces, power management circuits, and analog interfaces. The presence of a large number of components on the chip increases the faults in the chip. Thus, the SOC test equipment (used in the back-end process in the semiconductor manufacture before final packaging) plays an important role and ensures fault-free production of chips. Some of the faults that are tested during SOC testing include timing faults, interconnection faults, and electrical interferences. The SOC test equipment helps semiconductor manufacturers increase the production yield by lowering time for reduction. Also, the SOC test equipment has been gaining more significance among semiconductor manufacturers because of miniaturization of electronic devices as well as an increased focus on reducing the throughput time.
TechNavio's analysts forecast the Global SOC Test Equipment market to grow at a CAGR of 1.1 percent over the period 2014-2019.
