Tower Semiconductor Ltd.

TOWER SEMICONDUCTOR LTD operates as a specialty foundry in the semiconductor industry. The company focuses on differentiated specialty analog technologies, particularly Silicon Photonics (SiPho), leveraging deep applications knowledge, design enablement tools, and customer technical support. This strategy allows a portion of its wafers to be sold at higher prices compared to standard CMOS products. TOWER SEMICONDUCTOR LTD currently offers process geometries of 0.18, 0.16, and 0.13-micron on 200-mm wafers, and 65 and 45 nanometer on 300-mm wafers. The optical components in SiPho, such as waveguides and modulators, do not require scaling to more advanced lithography nodes. The company's 0.18um geometry design rules on 200mm wafers and 65nm to 45nm geometry design rules on 300mm wafers are suitable for SiPho needs. The company invests in its portfolio of specialty process technologies and intellectual property (IP) to meet customer product and system requirements. TOWER SEMICONDUCTOR LTD targets multiple large, growing, and diversified end markets characterized by high growth and high performance, where its specialty process technologies and design services offer a strong value proposition.
