Engineering Services and Prototype Fabrication
American Semiconductor provides a wide variety of engineering services that are well suited for research and prototype efforts, and is active in advanced technology research supporting programs for startups, commercial companies, and agencies such as the U.S. Department of Defense, U.S. Department of Energy, and NASA.
Custom Flexfet Processing: Because Flexfet is a gate last process, it supports a variety of new technology such as novel dielectrics, metal gate materials, 3D integration and MEMS integration that is beyond the scope of standard CMOS capability. American Semiconductor seeks to collaborate with organizations doing work in these areas that might benefit from integration of Flexfet as a CMOS base process.
SBIR/STTR design requiring a custom process? We can provide low cost process simulations to meet Phase I requirements, then follow-up with custom prototype fabrication for Phase II.
Looking for a military/aerospace partner with advanced fabrication capability? We are a pure-play foundry and will not compete with your design. We can help apply the benefits of Flexfet CMOS technology to help create new design opportunities.
Need a custom process? We can provide high-volume production of your specified manufacturing processes.
Is your institution lacking fabrication capability for your research? We can provide simulation support, custom processing, lab services, and testing.
Low volume process? We support small minimum lot requirements with splits allowed.
Quality Message: American Semiconductor supports a broad base quality focus that includes stringent compliance to customer contracts, IP agreements, fabrication and business procedures, and cost/schedule performance commitments.
Statement on IP: American Semiconductor is particularly careful to protect customer designs, customer developed process sequences, and customer technology. What a customer designs or develops is the property of, and proprietary to, the customer. Your design and the process you develop stays in the U.S., fully protected by U.S. law and requirements. Additionally, we are sensitive to, and can comply with, export requirement restrictions.
