Test Vision Symposium at SEMICON West 2026
The Test Vision Symposium at SEMICON West brings together semiconductor test experts and industry visionaries to explore and shape the future of testing. This year’s theme, “Tomorrow’s Test Vision” highlights the collaborative and innovative spirit driving the next wave of advancements in semiconductor testing.
As advancements in AI, advanced packaging, silicon photonics, and high-performance computing accelerate, test strategies must evolve in parallel. Increasing device complexity makes testing essential for reducing time to market, ensuring reliability, controlling costs, optimizing performance, and enabling scalable manufacturing across applications from autonomous vehicles, renewable energy to AI‑powered systems and next-generation consumer electronics.
Test Vision 2026 provides a forum for open dialogue, knowledge sharing, and forward‑looking perspectives on semiconductor testing. This year’s symposium brings the “vision” back into Test Vision—fostering collaboration, partnership, and innovation to enable the next phase of real‑time evolution in test technologies.
We invite abstracts that explore innovative test methodologies, data‑driven approaches, and solutions addressing challenges such as AI enablement, thermal management, and heterogeneous integration.
