Abstract :
The procurement of critical solid state electronic components has always been strategic for companies operating in the Defense and Space market. To-day the situation is even more stringent because of the increasing importance of Gallium Nitride device. An “ideal” Foundry is a sources that can satisfy all the basic requirements for the development and production of competitive edge RF products, avoiding ITAR restriction, and ensuring a right tradeoff between cost and performance.
