Aehr Test Systems wins follow-on order to expand silicon photonics production for AI applications.

Aehr Test Systems received a follow-on production order from its leading silicon photonics customer for a fully automated FOX-XP multi-wafer burn-in system. This system supports the customer's expansion of manufacturing capacity for next-generation silicon photonic integrated circuits, crucial for AI infrastructure requiring high bandwidth and power efficiency. The order highlights the industry's shift toward large-scale silicon photonics production and the growing importance of wafer-level burn-in (WLBI) for device reliability and cost reduction. The system is expected to ship in the first half of 2027, positioning Aehr as a key player in silicon photonics manufacturing scale-up.
