Another year, another thousand testers delivered. AccoTEST celebrated the shipment of its 9,000th unit — the STS8200 CROSS and STS8300 Series combined — accumulating to semiconductor test segment a thousand more solutions in the industry. The combined installed base served high-power semiconductor innovators in consumer electronics, automotive power, server infrastructure, and photovoltaic applications worldwide.
Renewable energy is no longer a new frontier, yet global momentum in the sector shows no sign of slowing. Beyond photovoltaics, the energy transition continues to drive rapid wind power expansion. According to Market Research Future, the wind turbine power electronics market is projected to grow at a 4–6% CAGR through 2030, driven by larger turbines that require advanced power conversion and grid-synchronisation electronics. Modern turbines depend on high power modules, gate drivers, and precision analog ICs to ensure reliable and predictable operation under harsh field conditions.
While renewable energy is just one of many industries AccoTEST serves, the demand for high-power semiconductors across all end markets points to a single, inescapable truth: rigorous qualification requires test platforms designed for both high power and high parallelism.
AccoTEST’s response to this global shift in semiconductor complexity is captured in a phrase: More Power and More Than Power.
STS8200 AXE-PM | Analog at Scale, Power by Design
- Covers the full WBG device spectrum — MOSFETs, IGBTs, SiC, GaN, KGD, PIM and IPM modules — in a single production test platform.
- Delivers ±2000V/600A DC static and 1200V/3000A dynamic test capability, purpose-built for high-power semiconductor qualification.
- Open-architecture C++ programming across 26 universal mainframe slots with 11 high power resource slots gives customers full control over test flow without proprietary lock-in.
STS8300 | Total Test, Total Parallelism in the Analog/Mixed-Signal Domain
- All-in-one test head with 36 slots spanning high-density analog, digital and mixed-signal resources for high-parallelism, multi-task production test.
- Hardware modules are reconfigurable as synchronous parallel sites, directly improving throughput and driving down cost-of-test.
- No-licence software with integrated debug, waveform generation and analytics tools ships standard across both platforms — eliminating a significant recurring cost line.
Celebrating 9,000 deliveries was a milestone worth noting, and we entered the next chapter with renewed energy, focused on achieving the next level of performance for a world that demands ever more from its power semiconductors.
