FORMFACTOR COLLABORATES WITH KEYSIGHT TECHNOLOGIES AND GLOBALFOUNDRIES TO DELIVER SILICON PHOTONICS TEST AND MEASUREMENT SOLUTION

Proven, integrated solution features FormFactor’s Cascade CM300xi Probe System and Keysight’s Photonics Application Suite

LIVERMORE, Calif., June 19 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FormFactor, Inc. (NASDAQ:FORM), a leading electrical test and measurement supplier to the semiconductor industry, announced today the company has deployed an integrated CM300xi probing solution for wafer-level testing of silicon photonics (SiPh) devices. Teams from GLOBALFOUNDRIES, FormFactor and Keysight worked together to ensure the system is flexible to meet engineering needs and to deliver high throughput in volume production.

Silicon photonics can enable the transfer of enormous amounts of data at high speeds using optical signals instead of electrical signals. The silicon photonics market is gaining momentum for data center, automotive, and other applications because it allows optical devices to be made cost effectively --reducing power and size -- using silicon semiconductor fabrication techniques. The global silicon photonics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 22.3% between 2017 and 2025, according to Inkwood Research.
