- Protec MEMS Technology Inc. (KRX: 147760), formerly known as Microfriend Inc., is a South Korea-based semiconductor testing solutions company specializing in the design, development, and manufacture of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) probe cards used for wafer-level integrated circuit inspection. Founded in 2004 and headquartered in Asan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea, the company operates as a consolidated subsidiary of semiconductor equipment manufacturer Protec Co., Ltd. Protec MEMS Technology operates within the semiconductor test and packaging industry, providing mission-critical, consumable test interface hardware that evaluates the electrical functionality and reliability of memory and logic chips prior to packaging. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio of semiconductor test interfaces and micro-fabrication products, comprising: 3D MEMS probe cards engineered for high-density, multi-layer wafer testing; high-parallelism NAND Flash probe cards optimized for 3D NAND and V-NAND wafer sorting; advanced DRAM probe cards designed for high-speed synchronous memory architectures; High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) probe cards customized for stacked-die 2.5D and 3D advanced packaging verification; fine-pitch vertical MEMS probe pins with high durability and current-carrying capability; high-density multilayer ceramic (MLC) space transformers; custom-designed test interface printed circuit boards (PCBs); and probe card maintenance, refurbishment, tip-cleaning, and precision calibration services. Protec MEMS Technology delivers its products primarily to leading semiconductor integrated device manufacturers (IDMs), pure-play memory producers, and outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) providers, maintaining strategic supply relationships with major domestic and international chipmakers, including Samsung Electronics. The company operates high-precision cleanroom manufacturing and micro-fabrication facilities in South Korea, serving domestic semiconductor fabrication lines as well as international manufacturing hubs across Asia. In recent developments, the company underwent a corporate reorganization and rebranding, changing its legal name from Microfriend Inc. to Protec MEMS Technology Inc. (PMT) in March 2023 following its acquisition by Protec Co., Ltd., creating operational synergies across semiconductor packaging and test hardware domains. Strategically, the company has broadened its core focus beyond legacy NAND flash testing into high-growth DRAM and High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) wafer-test markets to support expanding artificial intelligence hardware demand. To accelerate production capabilities for next-generation, fine-pitch MEMS probe cards, the company implemented maskless lithography systems from EV Group (EVG), integrating advanced digital lithography into its fabrication lines to enhance overlay precision, reduce prototyping cycle times, eliminate photomask tooling costs, and qualify next-generation probe solutions for advanced memory architectures.
