SemiTest, Inc. is a leading supplier of non-invasive and non-destructive monitoring tools used to detect invisible defects in semiconductor fabrication.

The company maintains its headquarters, R&D and manufacturing facilities - including two Class 10 cleanrooms - in Billerica, Mass., just outside of Boston.

Since its founding in 1987, SemiTest has experienced tremendous growth as its monitoring equipment has been integrated into the production processes of major semiconductor wafer and device fabricators worldwide.

In addition to quality control functions, semiconductor manufacturers use SemiTest's SCA and Epimet systems to analyze, streamline and improve manufacturing processes, and to develop new processes.

SemiTest's SCA-2500 Surface Charge Analyzer has an installed base of over 150 systems. Using proprietary and patented technology, the SCA-2500 detects common contaminants, processing equipment malfunctions and human error, which can impact semiconductor devise performance. SemiTest's Epimet Model 2 dramatically reduces the cost of epi wafer monitoring without risking quality. Using a patented, non-destructive C-V method, Epimet provides a complete alternative to Hg-probe or CV-Schottky that does not require monitor wafers.

SemiTest's products, applications support and service are provided through an international network of distributors and independent sales representatives. Further information on SemiTest can be obtained by calling 978-667-8783 or using our information request form.
