Presto Engineering Expands RF Capacities

Presto Engineering Inc., a provider of semiconductor back-end turnkey production services, has tripled the capacity of its San Jose, CA-based engineering hub and added new RF (radio frequency) device testing equipment to its Caen, France location. Presto Engineering provides semiconductor product engineering solutions to IDM, fabless and electronic companies.

In San Jose, the company will focus on high-frequency RF testing at millimeter wavelengths. The France hub is to support all aspects of RF, as well as analog and mixed signal devices.

“The RF market is booming as a result of rapidly increasing consumer demand for smart phones and other mobile devices, and the massive expansion of backhaul and data centers worldwide. As a result, we are in full-expansion mode as we move to support this growth with aggressive investments in additional capacity. Many of our North American and European customers need to have testing and back-end support services close to them, rather than in Asia, for example, so that they can stay intimately involved with the development and ramp of these very complex, high-frequency devices,” says Michel Villemain, CEO, Presto Engineering.
