Dialog Semiconductor designs and manufactures CMOS ASICs combining both analog and digital functions. Design methodology is a turnkey based solution, however customers' digital designs can be imported for integration with analog circuitry. Dialog is IS09001 accredited and is, if required, able to multisource all stages of manufacturing.
Dialog Semiconductor have design facilities located in the UK, Germany and USA.
