"The use of supply-chain aggregators like MOSIS is a proven
development method for high-performance ASICs," said Tom Buzak, president
of Tektronix Component Solutions. "We see our relationship with MOSIS as
providing a complete, cost-effective ASIC solution for customers needing
low-volume, high-performance devices."
By utilizing the MOSIS and Tektronix Component Solutions team, customers
can reduce the cost of initial ASIC prototyping by employing multi-project
wafer runs, rather than developing their own complete mask set prior to first
silicon tape-out. Additionally, Tektronix Component Solutions can provide
high-performance ASIC design on the front end and turnkey IC packaging services
on the back end, rounding out a complete ASIC solution. By working with
Tektronix Component Solutions early in the ASIC development process, customers
can improve the time to first packaged device by designing the ASIC with
package, external interconnect, and performance in mind.
For aerospace and defense contractors, medical OEMs, high-speed
communications developers and others who require top performing ASICs, this
relationship is especially relevant since both Tektronix Component Solutions
and MOSIS are experienced working with a variety of high-performance semiconductor
technologies. In particular, the organizations have proven expertise in
developing high-speed ASICs on SiGe (silicon-germanium) processes. For
aerospace and defense customers, the relationship offers a trusted supply chain
since both Tektronix Component Solutions and MOSIS are accredited Trusted
Suppliers, offering ASIC development and microelectronics assembly in a secure
environment.
"As Tektronix' internal ASIC design and package development team,
Tektronix Component Solutions brings impressive capabilities in developing
high-performance microelectronic devices," said Wes Hansford, director of
MOSIS. "We look forward to working with Tektronix Component Solutions to
deliver custom ASIC solutions that meet the high-performance needs of our
customers' next-generation systems."
