Abstract

The GaAs industry has been growing immensely during recent years. This is mainly driven by the tremendous growth of the wireless communication market, which is still continuously growing. Additionally, an emerging mmW market with applications in automotive, defense and optoelectronics is further driving the demand for GaAs components. The two largest European GaAs fabrication companies, UMS and Filtronic are very well positioned to address the complete frequency range from 1GHz up to 100GHz for commercial, high volume low cost markets, as well as individual niche applications. An overview of the companies' structures, their processes and design capabilities and also their new product developments will be presented in this paper.
