June
10, 2003, TAIPEI, TAIWAN---- RF Integration (Lowell, USA)
and WIN Semiconductors Corporation, a world-leading GaAs
IC foundry inTaiwan, announced their cooperation in terms
of MMIC design and chip manufacturing.
Using
RF Integration RF/Mixed Signal design expertise, both companies
agree to work together to provide a complete solution to
customers that require MMIC designs, from single functions
like Pas, Attenuators or Switches, to integrated solutions
like complete Transceivers, based on a broad portfolio of
GaAs wafer fabrication processes available from WIN. Through
this collaborative supply chain, both companies can support
customers from system specification to chip manufacturing.
"In
addition to supporting WIN・s customers to develop their
product portfolio using the：best-in-class： process, working
with WIN enhances our ability to deliver high quality and
high performance products to the marketplace", says
Jean Luc Lembert, VP Strategic Business Development.
：Our
6-inch GaAs processes (HBT and HEMT) are particularly tuned
for affordable mass production of MMICs in applications
from high volume components, such as handset PA and Switches,
to high frequency and high performance components, such
as broadband amplifiers and 77 GHz automotive radar MMICs；
says Simon Yu, general manager and associate vice president
of North America and Europe Sales at WIN.
：This
alliance is a further step to strengthen our relationship
with RF Integration. We are pleased to form such an alliance
as we, with RF Integration・s expertise in MMIC designs
and WIN・s advanced MMIC manufacturing capabilities, are
enabling many levels of our customers (IDM, fab-less, module
and system) to turn around their products in rapidly growing
markets to meet performance and quality market demands within
a short period of time；, continued Simon Yu.
