晶圓探針台市場 - 2023-2028 年預測Wafer Prober Market - Forecasts from 2023 to 2028 |
晶圓探測器是一種用於在半導體開發和製造過程中對晶圓進行電氣檢查的系統。然而,在經濟不確定的情況下,由於消費者需求疲軟,半導體行業的增長率預計將下降,從而影響晶圓探針台市場。
在電子測量中,使用探針和探針卡將來自測量儀器和測量設備的信號發送到晶圓上的專用設備,然後將信號發回。晶圓探針用於操縱晶圓與器件的預期表面接觸。
晶圓探針還用於半導體開發中原型 IC 的特性測試、可靠性測試和缺陷檢測。器件工藝評估涉及TEG(測試元件組)的高精度測量和評估,包括IC晶體管、互連件和其他IC元件。
此外,市場分為全自動、半自動和手動。每種類型都滿足半導體行業的不同需求。全自動晶圓探針台以其高精度、精密度和速度而聞名,使其成為大批量生產環境的理想選擇。另一方面,半自動晶圓探針台在精度和靈活性之間提供了良好的平衡,並且比手動探針台更準確。手動晶圓探針台適用於小批量生產、研發和學術機構。
律師事務所對機器學習實施的需求不斷增長正在推動市場。信息和通信技術的興起以及向數字社會的過渡將在短期內增加對半導體的需求。因此,對半導體製造設備的技術要求變得越來越複雜且難以滿足。除了工藝擴展之外,3D 堆疊在業界越來越受歡迎,因為它可以實現大量設備和異構組件的高級封裝。
這是因為這些設備嚴重依賴半導體芯片。晶圓探針台在半導體芯片集成到電子設備之前測試和驗證半導體芯片的性能和功能,確保它們滿足所需的質量和可靠性標準。製造商正在投資更先進的晶圓探針技術,以滿足對高性能芯片不斷增長的需求。

Wafer prober is a system used in the semiconductor development and manufacturing process for the electrical testing of wafers. Although the semiconductor sector growth rate is expected to decline due to weak consumer demand amidst uncertain economic conditions, affecting the wafer prober market.
In electronic measurement, the signal from the measuring instrument or measuring device is sent with a probe or probe card to a special device on the wafer, and the signal is sent back. Wafer probes are used to manipulate the wafer so that it can touch the intended surface of the device.
In addition, wafer probes are used to test prototype ICs' properties, reliability testing, and defect detection in semiconductor development. Device and process evaluation involves high-precision measurement and assessment of the Test Element Group (TEG), including transistors, interconnects, and other IC component elements for ICs.
Moreover, the market is segmented into fully automatic, semi-automatic, and manual. Each type caters to the different needs of the semiconductor industry. Fully Automatic wafer probers are known for their high precision, accuracy, and speed, making them ideal for mass-production environments. In contrast, semi-automatic wafer probers balance precision and flexibility and are more accurate than manual probers. Manual wafer probers are suitable for low-volume production, research and development, and academic institutions.
The rise of information and communication technologies and the ongoing transition to a digital society will increase demand for semiconductors in the short term. As a result, the technological requirements for semiconductor manufacturing equipment are becoming increasingly sophisticated and difficult to meet. In addition to process scaling, 3D stacking is gaining popularity in the industry as it enables advanced packaging that includes many devices and heterogeneous components.
This is because these devices are heavily reliant on semiconductor chips. Wafer probers test and verify the performance and functionality of semiconductor chips before they are integrated into electronic devices, ensuring that they meet the required standards for quality and reliability. Manufacturers are investing in more advanced wafer prober technologies to keep up with the growing demand for high-performance chips.
