TOYAMA, Japan — Shikino High-Tech, a Japanese maker of semiconductor testing equipment, has gained a foothold in the U.S. in a field it sees as relatively safe from the Trump administration’s trade restrictions.

Shikino in March announced a partnership with Cast, a U.S. company that develops and sells circuit design elements, under which Shikino’s image compression and other circuit design technology will be sold in the U.S. through Cast.
