Business Wire
Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ: COHU), a global supplier of equipment and
services optimizing semiconductor manufacturing yield and
productivity, today announced that a leading U.S. fabless
semiconductor manufacturer has selected Sense+ system with µ-sense
for testing their next generation high-fidelity microphones.
The µ-sense microphone tester is Cohu’s latest product in our
MEMS test solution portfolio, and when combined with the Sense+
automation platform, it delivers state-of-the-art testing of
high-fidelity microphones with up to 96 devices under test in
parallel. The µ-sense tester provides precision measurements up to
78 dB signal-to-noise-ratio enabled by its unique patented
technology. The µ-sense tester eliminates the need for anechoic
rooms or chambers on the production floor, delivering
cost-effective, high-throughput manufacturing for next generation
high-fidelity microphones.
According to industry analysts, the MEMS microphone sensor
market is projected to grow 14.5% annually over the next seven
years reaching an estimated revenue of $6.2 billion. Cohu’s MEMS
test solutions enable customers to test the new generation of
high-accuracy, combo-sensors used in automotive ADAS, consumer
wearables, mobile products, industrial automation and IoT (Internet
of Things).
“We are excited to continue to evolve and expand our product
offerings for testing MEMS devices, and this milestone reinforces
the company’s position as a leader in semiconductor MEMS sensor
test,” commented Luis Müller, Cohu President and CEO. “The
integration of the µ-sense tester with our Sense+ automation
platform offers customers a step function improvement in accuracy,
sensitivity and high-speed production for testing next generation
microphones.”

deliver high quality products and services; failure of sole source
contract manufacturer or our ability to manage third-party raw
material, component and/or service providers; ongoing inflationary
pressures on material and operational costs coupled with rising
interest rates; economic recession; the semiconductor industry is
intensely competitive, subject to rapid technological changes, and
experiences consolidation of key customers for semiconductor test
equipment; a limited number of customers account for a substantial
percentage of net sales; significant exports to foreign countries
with economic and political instability and competition from a
number of Asia-based manufacturers; our relationships with
customers may deteriorate; loss of key personnel; risks of using
artificial intelligence within Cohu’s product developments and
business; reliance on foreign locations and geopolitical
instability in such locations critical to Cohu and its customers;
natural disasters, war and climate-related changes, including
related economic impacts; levels of debt; access to sufficient
capital on reasonable or favorable terms; foreign operations and
related currency fluctuations; required or desired accounting
charges and the cost or effectiveness of accounting controls;
instability of financial institutions where we maintain cash
