Processes

The M/A-COM business has over 20 years of GaAs MMIC production experience. We provide a full complement of foundry services to meet the requirements for a custom-designed MMIC, MMIC-based die, or packaged product.

Foundry Processes

M/A-COM SI1 Process
A 1.0 micron process that uses ion implant MESFET technology to build high volume control devices such as switches, attenuators and phase shifters.

M/A-COM HI2 Process
A 0.5 micron process that utilizes ion implanted MESFET technology to achieve a high-performing, low-cost process for low noise and medium power applications through 20 GHz.

M/A-COM PE3 Process
A 0.5 micron process that utilizes molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) to implement a MESFET active layer structure that achieves high efficiency and breakdown voltage for multi-watt power applications through 18 GHz.

M/A-COM HP Power Process
A 0.5 micron process that utilizes a PHEMT epitaxial structure which incorporates patented InGaP etch-stop technology. The unique electron transport characteristics of this power process enable realization of power transistors which are ideal for high power, high gain and high efficiency amplifiers.

M/A-COM HS Switch Process
A 0.5 micron process that utilizes a PHEMT epitaxial structure which incorporates patented InGaP etch-stop technology. The unique electron transport characteristics of this switch process enable realization of control products with high linearity, low insertion loss and high isolation.

M/A-COM MSAG™ Process 5
Based on a self-aligned gate implant device structure incorporating patented refractory gate technology, this process offers a family of MESFETs, each separately optimized for low noise, high efficiency power, switching, or logic applications. Combined with a full suite of passive elements and through-wafer via holes, this process is ideally suited for both complex multi-function MMICs and high performance single function MMICs.

M/A-COM MSAG™ Process 7
Based on a self-aligned implant device structure which incorporates patented refractory gate technology and polyimide layer for die protection, this process enables low cost solutions for many handset receiver applications.

M/A-COM Process LH5
A 0.18 micron process that utilizes a PHEMT epitaxial structure which incorporates patented InGaP etch-stop technology. This process is optimized for millimeter wave low noise amplifiers for commercial and military applications.


M/A-COM Process PH5
A 0.18 micron process that utilizes a PHEMT epitaxial structure which incorporates patented InGaP etch-stop technology. This process is optimized for millimeter wave power amplifiers for commercial and military applications.
