Magnachip Receives Korea Patent Technology Grand Prize Award

SEOUL, South Korea and CUPERTINO, Calif., June 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation (“MagnaChip”) (NYSE: MX), a Korea-based designer and manufacturer of analog and mixed-signal semiconductor products, announced today that it received the Korea Patent Technology “King Sejong” grand prize award for the first half of 2015 granted by the Korean Intellectual Property Office.

The award was in recognition of MagnaChip’s “Stepped-Gate Oxide Extended Drain MOSFET Semiconductor Device and Manufacturing Method.” This technology is targeted at applications such as AMOLED and LED TV Display Driver ICs. This technology has advantages over the existing medium voltage MOSFET in that it has low threshold voltage and high saturation current, making it well-suited for small size transistors.

In addition, this technology is suitable for applications requiring die-size shrinks because there is no thermal degradation as it relates to breakdown voltage and leakage current. This enables increased die-yields per wafer thereby reducing the unit cost to the customer.

“We are very pleased to have received this prestigious Korea Patent Technology Award from the Korean Intellectual Property Office. This is a strong endorsement of MagnaChip’s technological capabilities,” said YJ Kim, CEO of MagnaChip. “Our focus is to expand our R&D efforts to continue to grow our patent technology portfolio to help our customers enhance the competitiveness of their products.”

Magnachip to Offer 0.18 micron 100V High Voltage BCD Process

SEOUL, South Korea and CUPERTINO, Calif., June 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation (“MagnaChip”) (NYSE: MX), a Korea-based designer and manufacturer of analog and mixed-signal semiconductor products, announced today that it now offers a new premium 0.18 micron Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS (BCD) 100V high voltage process. This new process features operability up to 100V for various applications that include DC-DC converters, Power-over-Ethernet, LED drivers, motor drivers, audio amps and PMICs.

The 0.18 micron 100V BCD process is compatible with standard CMOS processes and uses high density logic devices (1.8V) and high performance analog devices (5V). Utilizing MagnaChip’s proprietary deep-trench isolation technology and high voltage LDMOS device optimization, 100V operation LDMOS (Laterally Diffused Metal Oxide Semiconductor) can be implemented on conventional silicon substrates without using more expensive SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) substrates thereby providing a more cost effective solution to foundry customers. The new process also supports non-volatile memory (NVM) storage technologies such as electrical fuse, OTP (one time programmable memory) and MTP (multiple time programmable memory). Another added feature is that this new process will also support option devices such as Tantalum Nitride thin film resistor, copper wire bonding, thick top metal and redistribution layer process options.

“We are very pleased to offer our 0.18um 100V BCD process solution that combines high-performance and cost efficiency at the same time,” said YJ Kim, MagnaChip’s Chief Executive Officer. “In addition to 100V BCD, MagnaChip will continue to enhance the BCD portfolio from 30V~200V, targeting multiple expanding markets such as mobile, consumer, communication, industrial and automotive.”
