What it does

US maker of probe cards and probe systems: the precision fixtures that touch every chip on a wafer so it can be tested before it is cut and packaged.

Why it matters

FormFactor said its record 2025 revenue was driven by growth in high-bandwidth memory (HBM), the stacked memory used alongside AI accelerators, and its CEO described the company as positioned at the intersection of advanced packaging and high-performance compute.

How it makes money

Sells probe cards (largely consumable, design-specific) and engineering probe systems to chipmakers, memory makers and test houses.

Geography

United States (Livermore, California)

AI stack position

Semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The highly specialized machines and design software used to create advanced chips in the first place. Without these tools, no chip maker in the world — including the ones building NVIDIA's chips — could produce anything.
