Battery
Safety and Control
Comfort and
Control
Power Doors and Windows
Consumer
Industrial
We fabricate IC’s (High voltage BCD’s,
BiPolar,
BiCMOS and Hall Effect Sensors) and Power Semiconductor
Devices (MOSFETs and IGBTs) in our 8” Class-1 cleanroom
fab.
We have 50+ years of semiconductor
manufacturing experience.
SOLID STATE: Minnesota’s high-tech
history.
Born for espionage in World War II, the computer has
touched nearly every part of human life. And for
decades, Minnesota was the global epicenter of computing
as birthplace of the supercomputer and home to Univac,
CONTROL DATA,
IBM Rochester, and Honeywell.
Polar Semiconductor’s first fab was built by CONTROL
DATA in 1969. We have transitioned through multiple
corporate ownerships and into an 8” 0.18 um technology
node Power Semiconductor and High voltage IC facility
since then.
