Global Communication Semiconductors, Inc. (GCS) Announces New Focus in InGaP and InP HBT

Source: Global Communication Semiconductors, Inc.

GCS, a pure play compound semiconductor foundry, has reorganized to react to the market demand for advanced HBT technologies.

TORRANCE, CA. GCS, Inc. (Global Communications Semiconductor, Inc.) a pure-play compound semiconductor wafer foundry announced today that it has made significant changes in its business focus to address the increasing demand for InGaP and InP (Indium Phosphide) HBT foundry processes.

"Due to the recent press release by our customer, Inphi, it is now public knowledge that GCS has the most advanced and highest performing InP process in the world." remarked Chanh Nguyen, CTO. "Although circuit performance is equally dependent upon design, GCS proprietary InP HBT technology which utilizes a low-loss interconnect (for high-speed circuits) and a carbon-doped base (ensuring long-term reliability) will meet the most demanding performance needs for those designing into OC-768 applications and future needs for high performance PA s." continued Dr. Nguyen.

To facilitate the focus on HBT GCS has reorganized its work force and technical team. "In the past GCS has provided advanced compound semiconductor foundry services in a wide variety of technologies. However, with our recent achievements in InGaP HBT reliability and world leading InP HBT performance it became evident that GCS future is in HBT." Commented Owen K. Wu, CEO and President of GCS. "As GCS gears up for InGaP and InP HBT production we will infuse additional specialization into our organization to support our new business focus. This specialization also includes the integration of HBT technology with optoelectronics for future OEIC applications." Continued Dr. Wu.

Global Communication Semiconductors Inc., based in Torrance, California, is an ISO 9002 certified company. GCS provides compound semiconductor foundry services to the wireless telecommunication and high-speed networking industries. GCS currently offers foundry service for both HBT InGaP and InP processes. Additionally, GCS provides optoelectronic devices such as PIN diodes for the fiber optic communication market and future OEIC applications.
