Their semiconductor IP division has been cutting edge for decades (particularly before TSMC got copper working).
They kind of act like a bridge between academia and industry, helping to develop academic ideas into something that's viable for high volume manufacturing.
- nxobject 2y agoDid the sale of their semi fabs effect the IP side of the business?
- KK7NIL 2y agoI don't know enough about their operations to answer with certainty, but I believe those fabs were generally more mature nodes for mil/gov (in fact I think they were the only semiconductor manufacturers approved for mil/gov use). Judging by the fact the number of patents they file doesn't seem to have gone down after 2015, I'm going to guess not.
