Cohu Introduces New RF Contactor For Mobile Market
POWAY, CALIF.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ:COHU), a leading supplier of semiconductor equipment, announced today the introduction of the new cDragon contactor for testing a wide spectrum of RF devices used in mobile and IoT (Internet of Things) applications.
The expansion of RF semiconductors continues to be driven by growing device interconnectivity and data sharing. The new cDragon leverages advanced micro electroforming technology to build contact elements that optimize signal performance for high frequency semiconductor test, such as those used in GPS, Bluetooth, cellular and wireless transmission. These devices are key to enable the connectivity in today’s smartphones, cars and emerging IoT products. cDragon combines excellent signal integrity with long-life and elastomer-free architecture. It is well suited for harsh, high volume production environments requiring tight temperature accuracy during test.
During intensive testing at a leading semiconductor manufacturer, the new cDragon has proven its stable performance in high volume production. The innovative contact spring manufacturing technology delivers remarkably long lifespan and stable signal integrity. Cohu has received initial volume production orders for cDragon that are expected to ship in the first and second quarter of 2017.
Cohu will be showcasing cDragon Contactor and other innovative test contactors at the Burn-in & Test Strategies (BiTS) Workshop from March 5th to 8th in Mesa, Arizona.
About Cohu:
Cohu is a leading supplier of semiconductor test and inspection handlers, micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS) test modules, test contactors and thermal sub-systems used by global semiconductor manufacturers and test subcontractors.
About Coho
a global leader in test handling, thermal subsystems, package inspection, contactors and MEMS test solutions used by the semiconductor industry. We provide our customers with outstanding products and services that reflect our commitment to operational excellence, innovation and market leadership.

Delta Design has been part of Cohu since 1967 and pioneered pick-and-place handler technology in the 1980s. The company rapidly grew to become the industry leader by the early 1990s. In early 2000, Delta Design developed the first solution for actively controlling temperature during test of power dissipative ICs, thus solving a critical yield problem when testing high-end microprocessors.
The acquisitions of Rasco in 2008 and Ismeca in 2012 extended the product portfolio to include gravity, strip and turret handling equipment and added new critical technologies to the company in contactors, MEMS and LED test, and vision inspection. Today, the company offers the broadest portfolio of enabling technologies in the industry that can be integrated in any of its handler platforms to optimize semiconductor test and solve some of the most challenging customer requirements.
