What it is

The Advantest 93000 SOC is an automated test equipment system for semiconductor devices.[4][5][6][7][8]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

A SoC tester sits in the electrical test stage of semiconductor manufacturing, after wafer fabrication or assembly steps that produce devices ready for functional verification.

The tester is used before devices move onward to sorting, qualification, or final package-level handling in flows that require electrical screening and characterization.

Applications

The Advantest 93000 SOC is used for testing system-on-chip and other semiconductor devices that need digital, DC, and optional analog or high-voltage test coverage.[4][5][6][7][8]
