TriQuint Company Description
TriQuint fills it up with GaAs. TriQuint Semiconductor uses specialized materials such as gallium arsenide (GaAs) instead of silicon as the substrate for its analog, digital, and mixed-signal integrated circuits (ICs). GaAs ICs operate at greater speeds than silicon chips, or at the same speeds with less power consumption. TriQuint's GaAs ICs are used in cell phones, fiber-optic and satellite telecom equipment, wireless networking equipment, and aerospace gear. Customers include Samsung Electronics (14% of sales), Motorola (12%), Nokia, Boeing, Ericsson, Nortel Networks, and Raytheon. TriQuint also offers contract design and fabrication services. More than 75% of sales comes from outside of the US.
