About Nova Measuring Instruments
Nova, formerly Nova Measuring Instruments, provides metrology and process control for semiconductor manufacturing. Metrology means measuring materials and structures on a wafer during production. Its product lines include integrated metrology built into process tools, stand-alone metrology, and materials and chemical metrology, along with software. The company has research centres in Israel, Germany and the United States. It is an equipment supplier to chipmakers and does not design processors, so its link to compute hardware is through the factories that make advanced chips.
Nova Measuring Instruments was founded in 1993 and is based in Rehovot, Israel. It is listed under Custom Silicon. Its shares trade as NVMI on NASDAQ.

Custom Silicon
Custom silicon means a company designs its own chips for its own products or data centers instead of buying standard parts. The chip is made by a foundry such as TSMC, but the design belongs to the customer.
