Dialog and TSMC collaborate on new process for power management ics
23/02/2010 Email to a friend
 
Dialog Semiconductor has joined forces with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing on a bipolar cmos-dmos (bcd) technology tailored to high performance power management ics for portable devices.

Dialog and TSMC collaborate on new process for power management icsAccording to Dialog, the 0.25micron high voltage process node enables higher voltage functionality to be integrated into single chip power management ics, enabling the potential for smaller form factor devices with reduced power consumption.

A number of proprietary IP blocks, based on TSMC's 0.25um bcd process nodes, have already been developed for incorporation into Dialog's next generation PMICs. Dialog claims these deliver the industry's leading power management performance for portable devices.

Dr Jalal Bagherli (pictured), Dialog's ceo, said: "Close collaboration for innovative technology with our foundry partners is key to Dialog's strategic business model, which accelerates the development of the highest level of power management integration in the industry. Through our ongoing and longstanding collaboration with TSMC, we are able to provide our customers with validated low power technologies to manage their power management needs and meet aggressive time to market goals."
