Peugeot Citroen. After the ramp-up phase, quality achieved results have been below 1ppm. The relationship between PSA Peugeot Citroen, Europe's second largest carmaker, and AMIS dates back to 1986 when the company started dealing with Mietec. Mietec subsequently became Alcatel Microelectronics before being acquired by AMIS in 2001. The 130 millionth VAN transceiver has been shipped as part of a program that began life in 1999. Developed specifically for PSA Peugeot Citroen, the REMP REMP Research, Engineering, Math and Physics (US NSA) , REMQ, and REMX VAN transceiver that AMIS supplies are based on the company's high-voltage mixed-signal semiconductor process technologies. These high-voltage BCD (Binary Coded Decimal) The storage of numbers in which each decimal digit is converted into binary and is stored in a single character or byte. For example, a 12-digit number would take 12 bytes. See binary numbers. technologies allow high-voltage analogue and digital circuitry to be integrated into a single, compact, cost-effective IC. Three generations of VAN transceivers, REMP, REMQ, and REMX, have been developed and shipped to PSA Peugeot Citroen during the course of the seven and a half-year program. Robert Klosterboer, AMI Semiconductor's senior vice president for mixed-signal products comments: "AMIS is an approved supplier if custom and standard products to a large number of automotive manufacturers and Tier One suppliers. The delivery of the 130 millionth VAN transceiver to PSA Peugeot Citroen demonstrates our commitment to developing advanced in-vehicle networking solutions for the automotive market and our ability to manufacture in high volumes to consistent quality levels."
