AMI Semiconductor (NASDAQ:AMIS), a leading designer and
manufacturer of state-of-the-art mixed-signal and digital products
for the automotive, medical, industrial, and military/aerospace
markets, has been chosen by Airbus to supply flight-critical ASICs
for future applications dedicated to civil and military aircraft.
Under the terms of the contract with Airbus, AMIS will initially
provide FPGA-to-ASIC conversion solutions for two components that
were previously used for establishing discrete signal acquisition
(USB format) in various flight systems. In addition to AMI
Semiconductor�s position as the leading FPGA-to-ASIC provider,
Airbus selected AMIS because of the company�s track record in the
avionics sector and a commitment to long lifetime supply and
support for the two ASIC devices. AMI Semiconductor�s quality
systems and failure analysis capabilities also played a major role
in the final decision. The order to supply ASICs for flight
critical applications is a great success for AMI Semiconductor�s
Military and Aerospace Business Unit. Commenting on the Airbus
contract, Vince Hopkin, vice president of the Military &
Aerospace Business Unit and Digital Products/Services, said, �While
FPGA-to-ASIC conversions for cost savings have long been desirable
in the aerospace market, they must be backed up by long lifetime
support and the ability to meet stringent quality requirements and
aerospace standards. AMIS was able to address all of these criteria
enabling a long-term relationship to supply Airbus with a
cost-effective and sustainable digital logic alternative. About
