A voltage sensor is an electronic device used to detect, measure, monitor, and isolate electrical voltage in industrial and electronic systems.
An AC current sensor is a device that measures alternating current by detecting the changing magnetic field around a conductor, without direct electrical contact.
As semiconductor and electronics manufacturing in India continues to scale in 2026, demand for reliable thermal test equipment has grown sharply.
Reliability testing in semiconductor and automotive electronics has evolved rapidly over the last few years. Devices are smaller, power densities are higher, and operating environments are harsher than ever.
When a semiconductor team begins validating a new processor or FPGA, they rarely solder the chip directly onto the test board. Instead, the device is placed into a test socket, allowing engineers to insert, remove, and test multiple ICs during development.
Modern electronics, from AI processors and telecom equipment to embedded systems, rely heavily on Ball Grid Array (BGA) packaged integrated circuits. BGA packages allow manufacturers to place hundreds or even thousands of connections under a chip, improving electrical performance while saving board space.
If you’re validating a semiconductor device that must perform reliably at –40°C during cold starts and +125°C under peak operating conditions, you need to observe electrical behaviour, timing margins, and functional performance at the exact moment the temperature changes.
When electronic components fail in the field, it’s almost always due to repeated exposure to temperature changes. The temperature change has a cascading effect on the strength of materials, solder joints, packaging, or design. This is why thermal testing is so important for reliability in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing.
When evaluating IC socket suppliers for high-frequency testing, the market is divided between generic low-cost solutions and specialized, high-fidelity engineering tools. Globetek provides the latter, through Ironwood Electronics.
The one component common across industrial automation, electric mobility, and renewable energy, which keeps systems safe and efficient is the current sensor.
