FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
CAMTEK INTRODUCES A NEW SEMICONDUCTOR INSPECTION SYSTEM FOR THE LED MARKET
 
MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel – January 25, 2010 – Camtek Ltd. (NASDAQ and TASE: CAMT) (“Camtek” or the “Company”), today announced the introduction of a new Semiconductor Inspection tool focused on the special requirements of the LED Market.
 
Camtek’s Condor 5LED is a new AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) system designed to provide solutions to a variety of requirements that are unique to LED Semiconductor Manufacturers.

The LED Market’s special inspection requirements are characterized by 3-6 inch wafers, each of which may contain between 100 to over 200 thousand LED devices per wafer. Typically the wafer is made of a translucent compound semiconductor such as Gallium Arsenide, Gallium Phosphate and/or Indium Phosphate. The customers’ defect specifications and unique inspection process raise a significant challenge for AOI suppliers to solve.

Camtek has already been addressing the special needs of this market for over two years and has designed solutions on a per customer basis, built into existing platforms. Camtek has installed 6 such systems in three countries in this time. The new Condor 5LED incorporates all Camtek’s experience in this space, into a singular and focused designated solution, targeted at the LED Market.

Mr. Roy Porat, Camtek’s General Manager commented: “The Condor 5LED will further entrench our leading position in this market segment. Throughout the past year, we have been benchmarked a number of times against competitors, and we have been chosen as the ‘tool of choice’ several times. The Condor 5LED will strengthen our position in this market, and will allow us to maintain and build on our technological leadership.”

Mr. Porat concluded: “We are optimistic with regard to this segment in 2010. Given indications for significant growth from our customers in the LED Market, we aim to grow our business with the Condor 5LED in the coming quarters and years. ”
