PEER Group's History in the Semiconductor Industry

We have a long-standing history in semiconductor automation. Prior to the formation of PEER Group, our founders created the peer-to-peer distributed control technology that went on to form the basis for FASTech Integration's CELLworks and FACTORYworks products. We were one of FASTech's first systems integrators in 1992 and we continued to build our semiconductor practice in North America throughout the 1990s. In 2003, we acquired the European operations of TRW's Semiconductor Manufacturing Solutions Business Unit to form PEER Group GmbH. In 2004, we introduced PTOT, now the leading semiconductor automation software solution for OEMs. PTO has gone on to win the 2007 Semiconductor International Best Product award. In 2008, we entered the test application market with the recent acquisition of CCS EnvoyT, the industry-leading test application, and the introduction of a dynamic test solution, PEER Factory Acceptance Tester (PFATT).
