Address: 2 Eiko Building, 471 Onna,
Atsugi-shi, Kanagawa-ken
Business Description: The company designs, develops and markets analog-digital hybrid LSI and electronics equipment.
Market, Competition and Clients: As the usage of digital electronics equipment becomes more widespread, the demand for analog LSI equipment will increase. Domestic demand in Japan for analog LSI technology is currently satisfied primarily by foreign suppliers, because so few companies have sufficient expertise in this area. At the same time, demand is rising as many Japanese research institutions and companies develop sensors by micro machining technologies for incorporation into a wide range of commercial products. These companies require analog-digital hybrid LSI for the sensors to function properly. The company has the potential to supply the industry with these products.
Future Development: The company’s area of strength lies within LSI technology. This product uses a unique analog technology, such as a sense amplifier system LSI for next-generation sensors, a high-voltage driver, and a laser diode driver, and its application electronic equipment. The company aims to gain a dominant position in the domestic market with its unique analog-digital hybrid LSI technologies.
