Highlights


ALTIS SEMICONDUCTOR 0.25µm Technology is an robust high-yield process based on industry standard 0.25µm-ground-rules process. This process is a key element of the ALTIS SEMICONDUCTOR technology roadmap.

This 0.25µm-ground-rules process enables to address a wide range of digital, analog, mixed signal and RF applications using industry standard EDA tools and the numerous process options allow to bring dedicated solutions to specific requirements.

ALTIS SEMICONDUCTOR has been successfully in volume production (computer peripherals, image, video, wireless, wireline and automotive) for major market players on that technology since 1998. This allows for new products to expect fast time-to-market and efficient yield learning. The 0.25µm technology manufacturing is performed in a high quality manufacturing line, achieving top quality and reliability levels.
