HONG KONG, Feb 27, 2015 - (ACN Newswire) - Hua Hong Semiconductor Limited ("Hua Hong Semiconductor" or the "Company", together with its subsidiaries, the "Group", stock code: 1347), a leading pure-play 200mm foundry in the world, announced today that the launch of its 0.2um Radio Frequency ("RF") Silicon On Insulator ("SOI") process design kit ("PDK").The announcement indicated the new 0.2um SOI RF technology platform has been successfully validated and is ready for customers' product design and development. The launch of the new PDK aims to support customers efficiently, in terms of design and tape-out of high-quality RF components.
The Company's 0.2um RF SOI technology platform is tailored and optimized for wireless RF front-end switch application. Compared with gallium arsenide ("GaAs") and silicon-on-sapphire ("SOS") alternatives, SOI provides excellent performance and scalability through a cost-effective process to quickly achieve the design targets and enhance the product competitiveness. The SOI technology platform provides a 2.5V device with lower switch insertion loss, higher isolation and better linearity.
The Company's new PDK solution is developed from Cadence's IC5141 EDA software, and integrates RF modeling and simulation platform such as PSP SOI and BSIM SOI. This 0.2um RF SOI PDK offering provides convenience to designers who focus on optimizing both the RF performance and die size. They could design and create high performance and low power wireless RF front-end switch, thereby minimizing the revision of designs and greatly shortening the time for customers to launch their products in the market.
Dr. Weiran Kong, Executive Vice President of Hua Hong Semiconductor said, "With the booming of mobile internet and intelligent terminal in recent years, there are more and more applications of consumer electronics with the use of RF SOI design. 0.2um RF SOI technology is one of our focuses. With this new offering, we will actively help our customers to capture market opportunities. The technology is ideal for RF switch designs such as smartphones and connected devices of Internet of Things. Through adding 0.2um RF SOI technology solution into our RF portfolio, we are able to provide customers with comprehensive, cost effective and high performance RF solutions, which also include RF CMOS, SiGe BiCMOS and embedded Flash technology with RF PDK."
