Freescale Semiconductor provides strategic foundry services (gdsii through probed wafers) based on Advanced CMOS processes, and specialty technologies including SOI and Power technologies with a wide variety of value-add services which will bring your ideas to market ahead of your competition. Freescale also offers a variety of electroplating techniques to manufacture bumped interconnects and plated passives using world-class embedded copper passives, power copper, eutectic and low alpha high lead bump interconnects, and spin on passivation with BCB. Freescale’s competitive portfolio of technologies enables all integrated communication and system solutions.

Key Process Technologies

Silicon on insulator (SOI) is a recent high-performance semiconductor wafer technology that produces lower-power (dynamic) consumption devices than traditional bulk silicon techniques. Freescale Semiconductor now has in production and/or development SOI technologies at 0.18µ, 0.13µ, 90nm and 65nm generations. Freescale has shipped more than seven million silicon-on-insulator-based devices.

The world we live in is analog, so RF BiCMOS is commonly used in wireless products for mid-range frequencies, supporting mixed signal or high density applications to connect digital to our everyday worlds. Freescale offers cost-competitive, high-performance RF BiCMOS that will give the customer’s end products an upper hand over competition. Freescale’s Foundry Services Partners can choose the optimal solution for their application with a low-noise SiGe:C HBT, RF CMOS, and world-class embedded passives.

SmartMOS is a customer’s best balance of discrete power elements, MCU & digital optimization and analog/discrete technology. Applications such as 20V mass storage, 250 V LED, or 1A digital cameras all use SmartMOS technology. Our suite of SmartMOS technology meets the needs of customers in telecom as well as power management.

Foundry Design Services

Freescale Semiconductor's Foundry team is proud to present "state-of-the-art" physical design kits for our available technologies along with exceptional support programs to fit the customer’s needs. Our design kits provide internally developed standard cells and I/O libraries and options for memories. Our design kits support EDA tools and design flows.

Our support programs are structured to assist the customers of various skill levels – highly trained to novices. We provide facilities to drop off customers’ GDSII files. Customers have access to their WIP (Work in Progress) reports (production), which are updated daily.
