R&D Highlights - Jean-Pierre Noblanc Award

As the most innovative project of the framework MEDEA+, our project ELIAS has been awarded with the Jean-Pierre Noblanc Award 2009.

TELEFUNKEN Semiconductors is active in several R&D projects, partly supported by national and European funding authorities. This activity enables TELEFUNKEN Semiconductors to provide 'leading edge' technologies and design methodologies to our foundry customers.

The ELIAS project is developing accelerated test and simulation methodologies, providing predictions of component lifetimes during design. TELEFUNKEN Semiconductors is able to provide our customers an innovative design flow for circuit development, allowing efficient design with very low failure rates over extended product lifetimes.
