Mycronic’s Global Technologies Makes Acquisition in France
March 13, 2025 | MycronicEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Mycronic’s Global Technologies division has acquired Hprobe, a company headquartered in Grenoble, France, which has developed a unique technology for high-speed magnetic testing of Magnetoresistive Random Access Memories (MRAMs) and magnetic sensors.
Hprobe is an innovative high-tech company, founded in 2017, with currently 14 employees. Net sales in 2024 amounted to EUR 4 million. The company is a leader in the emerging niche market of MRAM testing and manufactures equipment for high-speed magnetic testing of MRAMs and magnetic sensors.
“Mycronic has identified wafer and semiconductor tests as an attractive expansion area. Hprobe fits very well into this space with its unique technology, where a strong magnetic field is generated quickly over a large area. Hprobe has the potential of turning into a critical supplier for the MRAM test market. AI, VR, AR and the automotive industry all constitute emerging growth opportunities for Hprobe, and through their solutions, Mycronic can participate in this exciting development”, says Magnus Marthinsson, Sr VP Global Technologies at Mycronic.
Hprobe will form a new business line within the Global Technologies division.

Elementary Mr. Watson: Chasing Checkmarks, Not Signal Integrity
10/01/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonFor the September 2025 issue of Design007 Magazine on signal integrity, I explored how the PCB is similar to a military obstacle course: walls that sap energy like impedance mismatches, barbed wire that cuts like crosstalk, and mud pits that drag a signal down like attenuation. The takeaway was clear that a PCB is not a flat drawing; it's an electromagnetic ecosystem filled with hazards that test every signal that dares to cross it. The real danger lies not in the obstacles themselves, but in the fact that many designers never see them.
