Chroma Launches Next-Generation High-Performance Power IC Test Platform
TAOYUAN, Taiwan, Nov. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Chroma ATE Inc. unveiled the next-generation Chroma 3650-S2 high-performance 
power IC test platform on October 21, 2022, drawing the attention of more than 
60 Taiwanese semiconductor companies and nearly 200 participants from the 
advanced semiconductor industry.

The rapid advancement of semiconductor technologies such as power conversion, 
battery and power management IC (PMIC) has not only enabled the takeoff of the 
electric vehicle (EV) industry, but also the development of solutions for 
making the conversion to higher power much more efficient. From serving as the 
power supply for various electrical appliances to battery charging and 
management of portable devices, Power ICs are no less relevant to human life in 
the 21st century than artificial intelligence (AI) and the cloud economy. With 
the rapid development of high-speed digital semiconductors, it behooves 
industry players to pay more attention to the development and testing of Power 
ICs.

Chroma 3650-S2 launched today inherits Chroma's excellent power measurement 
features and provides up to 768 digital I/O and analog pins with a maximum 
power supply capacity of 3000V or 160A per channel, said George Chang, General 
Manager of Chroma's Semiconductor Business Unit. Chroma 3650-S2, developed 
based on more than 10 years of experience in digital solutions, comes equipped 
with capabilities such as up to 768 pins, 200Mbps data rate and 300ps edge 
placement accuracy (EPA). It is also able to meet the needs of today's high 
voltage, high current, and complex digital control power ICs, while taking into 
account the high-end digital and analog needs of power ICs. 3650-S2 is suitable 
for lithium battery management system (BMS) ICs, power management ICs (PMIC), 
and GaN- and SiC-related power ICs.

With more than 20 years of experience in the semiconductor test industry and an 
installed base of more than 3,000 units worldwide, Chroma's semiconductor test 
product line includes the cost-effective 3380 series and the 3680 series with 
high-density, high-speed digital functions. With the addition of 3650-S2, 
Chroma will be able to meet semiconductor testing needs with a broader product 
line.
