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 including programmable filters, single-chip read channels and other ICs for computer mass storage peripheral and communication systems. It is also 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 analog counterpart to the digital field programmable gate array See FPGA. (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. ). EPAC devices are user-programmable with easy-to-use PC-based software and hardware development tools for signal conditioning, data conversion and general purpose analog design tasks in a wide variety of control applications. IMP also offers wafer fabrication services, from high speed 0.8-micron to 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, packaging and test services for leading semiconductor and systems companies. The company employs over 400 people at its headquarters and Class 10 wafer fabrication plant and test facility in San Jose, Calif., and product development center in Pleasanton, Calif. Revenues for fiscal 1995 were $59.8M. The company was founded in 1981 as International Microelectronic 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. CONTACT: IMP Inc. |
