For over 30 years, Sarnoff’s wafer foundry has offered silicon processing for a diverse array of technologies. We have been a certified QML manufacturer for integrated circuits produced by the Generalized Emulation of Microcircuits (GEM [1]) [2] program since 1996 and all GEM microcircuits are delivered in compliance with the requirements of MIL-PRF-38535. This includes complete traceability, total compliance with customer procurement requirements, and delivery with a certificate of conformance.
In 2007 the DoD Trusted Access Program Office (TAPO) accredited Sarnoff’s wafer foundry as a Department of Defense (DoD) Category 1 Trusted Foundry. With this endorsement, Sarnoff is able to offer the DoD and Government agencies a secure on-shore, QML-certified wafer foundry for military electronics. Additionally, the wafer foundry enables technical and commercial self-sufficiency, with capabilities from design to manufacturing that can all be performed in-house.
