| Alcatel transfers
advanced Indium Phosphide (InP) technology to OMMIC for development
of new Microelectronic circuits - dec. 2003
|
 |
Paris, 1st December 2003
Alcatel (Paris: CGEP.PA and NYSE: ALA) and OMMIC
announced today that they are collaborating on the transfer of
Alcatel's advanced Indium Phosphide (InP) Heterojunction Bipolar
Transistor (HBT) technology to OMMIC's Industrial Clean Rooms
at its centre in Limeil-Brévannes, France. This transfer will
complete OMMIC's commercial portfolio of III-V technologies and
will provide Alcatel's System designers with a qualified source
to develop 40 Gbit/s transmission systems for core networks.
InP, now well established as the choice material
for long wavelength (1.3 -1.6 µm) optoelectronic devices, is receiving
an increasing interest for its potential in microelectronic applications,
ranging from millimetre-wave space and terrestrial communication
systems, to very high bit rate fibre transmission systems (e.g.
10 and 40 Gbit/s).
The InP HBT technology was developed by the Alcatel
Research & Innovation Department in the framework of its studies
into 40 Gb/s transmission. On top of the normal advantages of
the conventional bipolar transistor (high current drive capability,
very low threshold voltage dispersion…), this InP DHBT process
(actually a Double Heterojunction Bipolar structure is used) offers
an exceptionally high cut-off frequency (greater than 200 GHz)
with a breakdown voltage higher than 5 V. Using this DHBT technology,
Alcatel has already developed prototype chip sets at 40 Gbit/s
that have shown excellent results including record breaking performances.
These circuits include full rate D-type Flip-Flops for reshaping
or decision circuits, multiplexer-drivers as well as Voltage Controlled
Oscillators.
OMMIC, already known for its unique enhancement-depletion
mode and high frequency power PHEMT and MHEMT technologies, will
now be one of the first foundries in the world to be able to offers
its customers access to a leading edge InP HBT process.
Marc Rocchi, COO and CTO of OMMIC commented "We
are delighted that we are going to be able to offer to our customers
this outstanding technology developed by Alcatel. OMMIC has based
its business on being able to provide technologies with real advantages
compared to our competitors. This new InP DHBT process fits in
exactly with our strategy and technology roadmap and will maintain
OMMIC's leadership in III-V processes."
Joëlle Gauthier, Vice-President of Alcatel Research
& Innovation, declared that "To prepare the future deployment
of 40 Gbit/s systems, Alcatel has to secure the industrial availability
of all required technologies, and we feel InP DHBT is one of them.
This is why OMMIC commitment to develop the InP DHBT process is
very good news for us."

AWR and OMMIC announce support
for GaAs foundry Process - sept. 2002
European Microwave Conference, MILAN, Italy
- September 24, 2002
Applied Wave Research, Inc. (AWR), a leading
supplier of high-frequency electronic design automation (EDA)
tools, and OMMIC, formerly Philips Microwave Limeil (PML), today
announced plans to provide process design kit (PDK) library support
for OMMIC's gallium arsenide (GaAs) foundry process. Monolithic
microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) designers will use the libraries,
within AWR's Microwave Officeä 2002 environment, to speed the
design of high-end wireless and fibre optic infrastructures while
helping to ensure electrical specifications are met.
OMMIC is a member of the Philips group of companies
and is working on the leading-edge research, design, and manufacture
of GaAs semiconductor devices using integrated circuit (IC) and
epitaxy technologies. "OMMIC is committed to supporting state-of-the-art
MMIC design tools and, over the past four years, AWR has clearly
established itself as a leader within the GaAs MMIC market," said
Remy Leblanc, OMMIC foundry manager. "By working with AWR to integrate
GaAs process technology into the Microwave Office design flow,
we can offer MMIC designers a premier EDA tool for OMMIC technology-based
product development."
"We have a rapidly increasing number of customers
requesting support for the OMMIC GaAs foundry processes," said
Ted Miracco, AWRä executive vice president. "We are therefore
very pleased to be working with the OMMIC team in Paris to bring
this technology to our joint customers. This collaboration supports
our vision for streamlining the MMIC design process with improved
productivity through increased accuracy and integration.
" The PDKs will include validated electrical
models and parameterized layout cells that have been tested and
validated against OMMIC's design rules. "The quality of the EDA
package, such as AWR's Microwave Office design suite, and the
quality of the OMMIC developed libraries, becomes increasingly
more important with the introduction of higher-performance processes
and the need for a "right-first-time" design," continued Leblanc.
OMMIC has a long history of working as an open
foundry. The company's first external customers were using the
foundry service in 1986. Since then, OMMIC has introduced Psuedomorphic
High Electron Mobility Transistor (PHEMT) technologies and now,
advanced high indium content, indium phosphide (InP)-like Metamorphic
High Electron Mobility Transistor (MHEMT), while gate lengths
have been reduced from 0.7 µm to 0.13 µm in production, with research
at 0.07 µm. Access to these technologies is now available through
complete mask sets or shared runs.

OMMIC 43 Gb/s ChipSet -
march 2002
Paris, 25th March 2002
OMMIC announces the launch of 2 high performance
MMICs for the Fibre Optic Interface market operating at data rates
of 43 Gb/s. The CGY2144 is a high sensitivity TIA (Transimpedance
Amplifier) and the CGY2141 a high output voltage driver amplifier.
Both devices operate from a +5 V supply and are manufactured using
OMMIC's fully released 0.13 µm PHEMT process.
The CGY2141 driver IC has a small signal gain
of 16dB and a 3 dB bandwidth of 50 GHz. At 30 GHz and with an
input voltage of 1 V the CGY2141 provides 5 V on a 50 Ohms load
and over 7 V with an input voltage of 2 V. The device is designed
for high efficiency and consumes only 900 mW with 5 V supply so
minimising thermal dissipation and current consumption.
The CGY2144 Transimpedance Amplifier is a very
wide-band, very high sensitivity device that runs from a single
+ 5 V supply with on chip biasing networks that make this TIA
very easy to use. A bandwidth of over 45 GHz (assuming a photodiode
with 50 fF of capacitance and 0.35 nH of Inductance) and 48 dBOhms
of Transimpedance gain is achieved. The measured noise performance
is better than 10 pA/vHz up to 25 GHz. This MMIC completes OMMIC's
range of very high sensitivity TIAs for data rates at 2.5 Gb/s,
10 Gb/s and 40 Gb/s.
Both MMICs are available as RF Characterised
Known Good Die (KGD). They form part of OMMIC's chip set for 43
Gb/s applications and have been developed using OMMIC's fully
released and mature 0.13 µm PHEMT technology.

OMMIC announces the
availability of a 150 GHz MHEMT process
- sept. 2001
European Microwave Week 2001 24-28 September 2001
Paris, 21stb September 2001
OMMIC announces that it will be making available
to the open market its recently developed Metamorphic HEMT process
(MHEMT) as from October 2001. This process is ideally suited to
the market of advanced devices for the Opto-Electronic market
at data rates of 40 Gb/s and above where there is a need for technologies
with a high Ft associated with a high breakdown voltage.
The MHEMT technology builds on OMMICs already
successful PHEMT technologies and opens the path to exceptional
performance using standard GaAs wafers and advanced Epitaxial
Growth techniques.
OMMIC's MHEMT technology enables a Ft of 150
GHz to be obtained simultaneously with a breakdown voltage of
10V. The technology has all the standard options of a MMIC process
including small size back side Via Holes for low Inductance grounding.
This process can also be associated with OMMIC's state of the
art Bump process, a key element in simplifying packaging particular
at higher date rates.
The MHEMT process uses a 0.13 µm mushroom gate
which is placed asymmetrically in the Drain-Source spacing. This
combined with the double recess of the channel and optimised epitaxial
layers gives this process the high breakdown voltage without compromising
the Ft. The use of an optimised, high Indium content channel with
graded buffer layers allows OMMIC to have the high Ft of high
Indium content processes (such as InP) but to use conventional
GaAs wafers as a substrate. This gives the MHEMT process the advantage
of being compatible with standard GaAs processing and so is upgradeable
to 6 inch wafers and beyond. The GaAs substrate allows easy backside
processing and low wafer breakage.
OMMIC will be offering this advanced technology
to selected partners in 2001 through its MultiChip Project scheme
or via full customer mask sets. OMMIC has been a provider of foundry
services to the external market since the mid-1980's and has built
up a strong support team and knowledge of this business.
