Eminent Reached 10 Millions of Successful Production Chips Incorporating Attopsemi's I-Fuse OTP

Hsinchu, Taiwan - August 26, 2016 ---Attopsemi announced today that its customer Eminent Electronic Technology, a leading fabless sensor IC company successfully embedded I-Fuse™’s OTP IP at UMC’s 0.35um mixed-signal process in proximity sensor products, and had shipped more than 10 millions of these chips for name-brand smartphones.

“Attopsemi's I-fuse™ OTP provides small size, high reliability, low program voltage, low power, wide read range, and wide temperature range to enable Eminent’s high reliability proximity sensors, especially in the extremely light-sensitive environments. Attopsemi also showed its partnership and dedication to providing technical support, and collaboration in shortest time.” said Tom Chang, Chairman of Eminent Electronic Technology.

“Eminent chose our OTP after surveying several other vendors in the market, including in-house solution, I-Fuse™ has demonstrated itself in meeting their die size requirements, as well as IP robustness, stringent programming and reading conditions, an important factor to keep the leakage to minimum for sensor IC applications where other OTP solutions simply can’t meet,” said Wen-Kuan Fang, VP of R&D of Attopsemi Technology, Co., LTD.
