Test Development Engineering
A fraction of the customers develop their own complete test solutions and offload to Amkor for production. Amkor can enable co-development, or full development, of complete test software and hardware solutions. Engage with us early in the product design for maximum impact or come to us later in the product lifecycle for significant cost savings with migrations to more cost-effective testers and/or higher parallelism.
Typical Test Development Cycle Times
Differentiated Test By Market
Amkor is the number one automotive OSAT, supporting worldwide supply chains. Products in this area include infotainment and safety requiring high levels of performance. This requires a much more comprehensive set of test requirements.

Over 38% of Amkor’s revenue is derived from Communications (smartphones, tablets, handhelds and wearable devices). Our leading-edge test solutions keep pace with rapid changes in cellular and connectivity technology requirements. Amkor is already well-positioned for 5G wireless and its new test requirements working with leading customers and ATE suppliers, we have 5G RF test capability in place.

Amkor is a leading provider of high-performance test solutions for the demanding networking and computing market – where five nines (99.999%) or higher uptime is expected. We have multiple customers supplying SiP(s), SoC(s) and components into these markets (servers, routers, switches, PCs, laptops and peripherals). Integral to these markets are storage technology and migrations from hard disk drives to solid-state drives (SSD). In addition, Amkor has a strong array of NAND test capabilities.
