TOKYO, May 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Advantest Corporation’s (TSE:) 11 th annual VOICE Developer Conference will feature dual sessions this month – May 16-17 in the United States and May 26 in China – allowing semiconductor test professionals representing the world's leading integrated device manufacturers (IDMs), foundries, fabless semiconductor companies and outsourced assembly and test (OSAT) providers to come together to share ideas and information. Attendees will hear more than 100 technical presentations, meet with experts at this year’s expanded technology kiosk showcase, visit partners’ expositions, and attend social and networking events.

Both conferences will feature the theme 'Measure the Connected World and Everything in It SM.' The detailed VOICE 2017 technical program is available online. It features Advantest customers, partners and employees from 12 countries and 22 different companies presenting their insights and best practices. This year’s program will have eight technology tracks covering device specific testing, hardware design and integration, improving throughput, reducing time-to-market, new hardware/software test solutions, test methodologies, product engineering, hot topics in the ATE industry, and - for the first time - SmarTEST 8.0 for the V93000 platform. In addition to paper presentations, Advantest R&D engineers and technology experts will be available in kiosks to discuss other testing topics with attendees. A keynote speech will be delivered each morning of the conference.

The Palm Springs event will open with a talk by Advantest's own Hans-Juergen Wagner, senior vice president of the SoC Product Group, who will detail the drivers, challenges and emerging trends of SoC device designs and the impact they have on test. The second day's keynote speaker, Chris Tarbell, will present a dynamic keynote address on hacking and the dark net. Tarbell is one of the most successful cyber security law enforcement officials of all time.
