Research of the Technology Department
The activities of the department Technology are focused on the research program "Technology Platform for Wireless and Broadband".
The goal of this program is to develop value-added technologies, preferably BiCMOS technologies, by the modular extension of industrial CMOS. The focal points in this program are technologies with high performance, low-cost technologies for system-on-chip, and the provision of technology access for internal and external designers.
The research towards high-performance technologies targets ultrafast SiGe HBTs, including complementary devices and new device concepts, for applications at frequencies of up to > 100 GHz.
The aim of the research for low-cost technologies is to develop BiCMOS technologies with ample performance and low manufacturing costs and to integrate additional modules such as RF LDMOS, Flash and passive devices.
IHP’s 0.25 µm and 0.13 µm BiCMOS technologies are available for designers in Europe and throughout the world.
A schedule for technological runs in the pilot line in Frankfurt (Oder) can can be found here.
