Dan Nystedt(@dnystedt):Semiconductor test and metrology have become the key factor in AI chip yield, cost, performance and mass production speed, moving this formerly behind-the-scenes work to the fore, media report, citing SEMI Taiwan President Terry Tsao. Instead of just catching defects, modern test and metrology equipment now feeds real-time insights back to the design, fabrication and packaging stages for faster troubleshooting. System-Level Testing (SLT), burn-in testing, and reliability verification have all moved up in importance. #Advantest $TER $AMAT $KLAC $ONTO $NVMI
