Technical deep dives

 

MIPS
Adopting physical AI gets simpler and smoother with the new MIPS platforms for AI inference and mission critical compute. These AI-native platforms enable decision making in event-driven real-time platforms with new easy to adopt solutions that will drive ecosystem support, making industry adoption faster and easier. 

CMOS 
Explore how GF CMOS technologies are uniquely positioned to fuel the next wave of Physical AI, enabling devices to autonomously sense, think, act and communicate. Learn how GF's FDX™ FD-SOI, FinFET and UX platforms deliver the compute, memory, connectivity and sensing capabilities needed for intelligence from the cloud and beyond the edge. 

Silicon photonics 
Discover how GF advanced photonics and packaging technologies help drive higher bandwidth, improved power efficiency and optical connectivity for scale-up, scale-out and scale-across architectures. Learn how GF's CLO portfolio integrates photonics, high-speed electrical ICs and advanced packaging to enable next-generation optical networking for all form factors, including pluggables and co-packaged optics (CPO). 

Advanced packaging 
See how GF advanced packaging technologies can help improve performance, bandwidth density and power efficiency through heterogeneous integration. Get the latest updates on 2.5D/3D integration; interposers; wafer-to-wafer (W2W) and die-to-wafer (D2W) bonding; TSVs; and advanced technologies enabling next-generation chiplet architectures. 

Power 
Learn how GF power solutions are helping drive higher efficiency, greater power density and intelligent power delivery for next-generation AI, automotive and industrial systems. Explore how BCD, BCD-HV and power gallium nitride (GaN) technologies support emerging 48V and 800V power architectures, from high-voltage conversion and control to point-of-load (PoL) delivery. 

RF 
See how GF's latest innovations in RF-SOI, silicon germanium (SiGe) and RF GaN are helping drive higher RF performance, greater integration and advanced connectivity across mobile, SATCOM, data center and communications infrastructure applications. Learn how GF is enabling highly integrated RF front-end modules (FEMs); low-noise high-speed optical connectivity; and high-power RF systems for next-generation communications, networking and wireless infrastructure.
