IMP is a technology leader in the field of complex, analog signal processing Analog signal processing is any signal processing conducted on analog signals by analog means. "Analog" indicates something that is mathematically represented as a set of continuous values. This differs from "digital" which uses a series of discrete quantities to represent signal. circuits and is the inventor of the Electrically Programmable Analog Circuit (EPAC EPAC European Particle Accelerator Conference EPAC Eastern Pacific EPAC Exchange Protein directly Activated by cAMP EPAC Ethanol Producers and Consumers EPAC Enhanced Perceptual Audio Coder (Lucent/Bell Labs) ). The company headquarters, wafer fabrication plant, and test facility are located in San Jose, Calif. The principal product development center is in Pleasanton, Calif. IMP products are sold through a worldwide network of representatives and distributors. Revenues for the fiscal year ending March 1996 were $76.8M, compared to $59.8M in FY95 and $48.2M in FY94. The company was founded in 1981 as International Microelectronics Products, Inc. and changed its name to IMP, Inc. in 1993. IMP trades on the NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on exchange under the symbol IMPX. Products and Services Analog Signal Processing Products User-programmable filters, read-channels, preamplifiers, write drivers and other complex mixed-signal ICs for removable-media, mass- storage peripherals and communications systems. Electrically Programmable Analog Circuits (EPAC) User-programmable general purpose analog devices and PC-based software and hardware development tools for signal conditioning, data conversion, diagnostic and monitoring in a wide variety of applications. Wafer Fabrication and Manufacturing Services Analog and mixed-signal wafer foundry services on low-power, high-voltage, CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Pronounced "c-moss." The most widely used integrated circuit design. It is found in almost every electronic product from handheld devices to mainframes. , BiCMOS, and EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM) A rewritable memory chip that holds its content without power. Although EEPROMs spawned flash memory, EEPROMs are byte addressable at the write level, whereas flash chips must erase a block of bytes before rewriting. processes, including turnkey packaging and test capabilities. High-volume gate array conversion services from FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) A type of gate array that is programmed in the field rather than in a semiconductor fab. Containing up to hundreds of thousands of gates, there are a variety of FPGA architectures on the market. and PLD netlists are offered in conjunction with the California ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) Pronounced "a-sick." A chip that is custom designed for a specific application rather than a general-purpose chip such as a microprocessor. division of JMAR JMAR Joint Medical Asset Repository Industries.
