HILLSBORO, ORViscom AG, maker of electronics inspection equipment, has acquired the MX family of IR inspection systems from Phoseon Technology Inc., the companies reported today.
 
The MX product family is a series of semiconductor inspection systems that incorporate infrared light sources for semiconductor applications where inspection through silicon is required, such as MEMS seal inspection, through-silicon wafer bond imaging and inspection, as well as SOI and flip-chip die bond inspection.
 
The acquisition price will remain confidential. This transaction takes the form of an assets deal and grants Viscom all patents for near IR inspection and exclusive use of Phoseon Near-IR lighting technology for inspection application licenses.
 
The agreement also transfers employees and the customer and applications base from Phoseon.
