ntttttttttttt

Advantest Corp said Wednesday that Toyota Motor Corp has adopted the company’s T2000 IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) Test Solution. The selection by Toyota, the world’s leading automobile manufacturer, further affirms Advantest’s leadership position in the competitive marketplace for cost-effective, reliability test of IGBT power devices, now widely used in automotive, consumer electronics and other applications.

Semiconductors are being used in increasing numbers to enhance automotive performance in areas ranging from engine control and navigation, to communications, safety and convenience. Most recently, owing to the increasing popularity of hybrid and electric automobiles, mixed-signal devices and power management ICs are playing an even greater role in vehicle safety and intelligence, making device reliability and cost a preeminent concern for car manufacturers. Advantest’s T2000 IGBT test solution answers this call with its high-precision, mixed-signal architecture, superior reliability, and the cost-of-test advantages afforded by its multi-DUT parallel test technology.
