2023 Global IC Automated Test Systems Market Research Report

The well-known cutting-edge technology consulting agency ICV recently released a report entitled "China's ATE testing machine market will exceed $2.9 billion in 2025.". The report points out that the widespread application of new technologies such as 5G, the Internet of Things, big data, artificial intelligence, and automotive electronics will drive the integrated circuit industry into a new upward cycle. As the key to ensuring chip yield and quality assurance, the market scale of integrated circuit automatic testing systems has also been further expanded. According to ICV data statistics, the global market size of integrated circuit automatic test systems in 2022 will be $5.262 billion, and it is expected to reach $6.939 billion in 2025. As a major market for integrated circuits, China's market size for integrated circuit automatic test systems in 2022 was $1.934 billion, accounting for 36.76% of the global market share, and it is expected to reach 42.40% in 2025.

Integrated circuit automatic testing system is a device that integrates hardware and software, also known as ATE equipment. According to the types of test chips, integrated circuit automatic test systems are divided into four categories: digital circuit test systems, analog circuit test systems, memory test systems, and mixed signal circuit test systems.

1. Digital IC test systems are test systems that have separate test resources for each pin and have the function of testing digital chips.
2. Memory IC test systems are mainly used for testing memory chips. In contrast to digital circuit test systems, memory test systems also contain certain specific functional test modules. Therefore, in order to reduce test time and costs, memory test systems are often used for parallel testing.
3. Analog IC test systems are mainly used to test analog chips and have strict requirements on the accuracy of the voltage/current generated and measured.
4. Mixed-signal IC test systems are mainly used to test mixed-signal chips (containing both digital and analog circuits), such as MCU chips, ADCs and DACs and other signal conversion chips.

Currently, mixed signal testing is the largest category of application in integrated circuit automatic testing systems, followed by digital testing systems. In 2022, the global market size of mixed signal testing systems will be 2.631 billion US dollars, accounting for 50% of the global market; During the same period, the market size of mixed signal testing systems in China was 948 million US dollars, accounting for 49% in China. It is expected that the global and Chinese mixed signal testing system market size will reach $4.371 billion and $1.648 billion respectively in 2025, with a compound growth rate of 18.44% and 20.23% respectively from 2022 to 2025.

From the perspective of composition and structure, the integrated circuit automatic test system (ATE equipment) mainly includes a machine and a board. The machine is the main hardware part for realizing chip circuit functional testing and electrical performance parameter testing. In 2022, the global ATE machine market size was 2.894 billion US dollars. However, as customer needs change, customers need to purchase and replace different boards to meet different testing needs. The proportion of machines in ATE equipment will gradually decrease, and the market growth will slow down. It is expected that the global ATE test machine market size will reach 3.469 billion US dollars in 2025.

Depending on the type of DUT boards, they can be divided into power DUT boards, digital DUT boards, analog DUT boards and support DUT boards. As the digital DUT boards can capture the detailed failure location of the functional test vector, and the power DUT boards is an important factor affecting the test quality, product yield, so the digital DUT boards and the power DUT boards are the two most used resources for ATE. According to statistics, the global power DUT boards market size in 2022 is USD 1,421 million, and the digital DUT boards market size is USD 474 million. In terms of the Chinese market, the market size of China's power DUT boards market is USD 522 million and digital DUT boards market size is USD 174 million in 2022, and the market size of China's power DUT boards and digital DUT boards market is expected to reach USD 883 million and USD 294 million respectively in 2025.
