TriQuint rolls new GaAs foundry process
September 23, 2010 // Mark LaPedus
RF chip maker TriQuint Semiconductor Inc. has released its latest 150-mm gallium arsenide (GaAs) commercial foundry process. The process, dubbed TQP15, is targeted at the Ka-band segment. It is designed for building millimeter wave (mmWave) MMICs for applications such as VSAT, satellite communications and point to point radios.
Manufactured in TriQuint's GaAs fabrication facility in Hillsboro, Ore., TQP15 is the latest offering in TriQuint's pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT) process portfolio.
TQP15 utilizes optical lithography to reduce cost, compared to traditional e-beam based solutions. It also incorporates refractory gate metal architecture which does not exhibit the standard metal gate sinking failure mechanism of non-refractory gate pHEMT processes.
“The TQP15 process leverages TriQuint's mature manufacturing capabilities used in the production of millions of pHEMT-based wafers,” said Steve Grant, vice president of global operations at TriQuint, in a statement.

The development platform for i.MX 6Quad from element14 (built to the Freescale SABRE Lite design) is an evaluation platform featuring the powerful i.MX 6Q, a multimedia application processor with Quad ARM Cortex-A9 cores at 1.2 GHz from Freescale Semiconductor.
This month, Freescale and element14 are giving away five such platforms, worth £128.06 each, for EETimes Europe's readers to win. The platform helps evaluate the rich set of peripherals and includes a 10/100/Gb Ethernet port, SATA-II, HDMI v1.4, LVDS, parallel RGB interface, touch screen interface, analog headphone/microphone, micro TF and SD card interface, USB, serial port, JTAG, camera interface, and input keys for Android.
And the winners are...
In our previous reader offer, Pico Technology was giving away one of its recently launched PicoScope 3207B, a 2-channel USB 3.0 oscilloscope worth 1451 Euros. Lucky winner Mr L. Sanchez-Gonzalez from Spain should be receiving his PicoScope 3207B soon. Let's wish them some interesting findings with his projects.
