Unlocking Endurance With MEMS Technology: Extending Relay Lifespan By 1000x

In this case study, Bright Toward faced the challenge of frequent failures and high downtime associated with Electromechanical Relays (EMRs) in high-intensity semiconductor testing. EMRs, while essential for precision switching, have a limited lifespan, often failing within months. Solid state switches, although longer-lasting, couldn't match EMRs' performance metrics.

By leveraging Ideal Switch’s remarkable longevity—surpassing traditional EMRs by 1000 times—Bright Toward developed a drop-in replacement that not only meets but exceeds performance expectations. This case study delves into how this innovative technology is setting new benchmarks for reliability and efficiency in semiconductor testing.
