DEFENSE INDUSTRIAL BASE ASSESSMENT: U.S. MICROELECTRONICS INDUSTRY
SCOPE OF ASSESSMENT
The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), Office of Technology Evaluation (OTE), is conducting a survey and assessment of the
capabilities of the U.S. microelectronics industrial base to support the national defense as required in Section 9904 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) of
Fiscal Year 2021 (15 USC §4654), in light of the global nature and interdependencies of the supply chain. The survey will collect information on the upstream materials and
downstream end uses associated with microelectronics production.
This survey is not part of the application for funding under Section 9902 of the 2021 NDAA (15 USC $4652).
Individual survey responses will not affect your organization's eligibility and/or consideration for CHIPS Act or other government funding.
RESPONSE TO THIS SURVEY IS REQUIRED BY LAW
A response to this survey is required by law (50 USC §4555). Failure to respond can result in a maximum fine of $10,000, imprisonment of up to one year, or both.
Information furnished herewith is deemed confidential and will not be published or disclosed except in accordance with Section 705 of the Defense Production Act of 1950,
as amended (50 USC §4555). Section 705 prohibits the publication or disclosure of this information unless the President determines that its withholding is contrary to the
national defense. Information will not be shared with any non-government entity, other than in aggregate form. The information will be protected pursuant to the appropriate
exemptions from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), should it be the subject of a FOIA request.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required to respond to nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with a collection of
information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.
BURDEN ESTIMATE AND REQUEST FOR COMMENT
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 14 hours per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing
data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or
any other aspect of this collection of information to BIS Information Collection Officer, Room 6883, Bureau of Industry and Security, U.S. Department of Commerce,
Washington, D.C. 20230, and to the Office of Management and Budget, Paperwork Reduction Project (OMB Control No. 0694-0119), Washington, D.C. 20503.

Definitions
Term
General Purpose Analog
General Purpose Analog is sub-divided into specific functional subcategories of Amplifiers/Comparators (Signal Conditioning), Signal Conversion,
Interface, and Power ManagementICs. These subcategories are defined in terms of functionality instead of a specific circuit type. A device should
be classified into one of the following subcategories depending on its primary or dominant function, regardless of the mix of circuitry used in the
device.
Interface
General Purpose Analog ICs whose primary or dominant function is to modify or shape the signal in order to ensure signal integrity for transmission
over a distance through a physical medium such as a wire, cable, waveguide, or tracks within a printed circuit board. These include devices which
shape the signal for transmission over the medium or which reconstructs the received signal after transmission to recover the intended signal
integrity. A device may be classified into this category if at least one of the following is true; the signal at the input of the device is analog in nature,
or the signal at the output of the device is analog in nature. An analog signal is defined as a signal which is continuously varying in voltage or
current over time, and is not a digital signal with discrete levels.
Power Management
General Purpose Analog ICs whose primary or dominant function is to convert, control or distribute DC power. This category includes devices
which convert a source voltage into another voltage which can be used for powering other integrated circuits and which include a management
capability to control the output voltage. AC to DC power conversion should be included in this category. General purpose LED drivers are classified
into the appropriate Regulator category. Only products which are integrated circuits should be classified in this Power Management category.
Discrete devices such as transformers, bridges and inductors used for power conversion should be classified into one of Discrete categories A-E.
Power management ICs designed for use in a specific end application should be classified into the appropriate Application Specific Analog
category of JB-JF.
Signal Conversion
Amplifiers/Comparators
Application Specific Analog
General Purpose Analog ICs whose primary or dominant function is to convert the signal from one form to another for further processing by other
ICs including digital ICs such as a microprocessor or FPGA. The signal before or after conversion should be analog. These include general
purpose devices whose primary function is Analog-to-Digital conversion, Digital-to-Analog conversion, and Voltage-to-Frequency conversion.
Discrete sample-and-hold circuits are part of this category. However, this function is generally integrated into the signal conversion circuit. Analog
switches and multiplexers which are often used with the above converters are included in this category.
General Purpose Analog ICs whose primary or dominant function is to condition or modify the incoming Analog signal to enhance it for further
processing such as signal conversion or interfacing. This category includes devices which provide functions such as signal filtering, signal
amplification, level shifting, buffering or comparison.Current sense amplifiers and trans-impedance amplifiers are included in this category
Among all analog circuits according to the general definition (seethe first paragraph of 3.4.1. Analog), this category includes those, which are
uniquely designed for a specific application and fall in one of the following categories from JB to JF. These circuits may be customer specific or

sequence. The memory information is volatile and is lost when the power supply voltage is removed
Electrically Erasable PROMs (except Flash Memory) and all other MOS Memory devices not defined in M1, M2, M8 and M7. Specifically includes
serial FIFOs and LIFOs as well as EAROM (Electrically Alterable ROM) and NOVRAM (Non Volatile RAM). Devices in this category are reported
into the following subcategories based on the function for which they are designed
Static Random Access Memory devices are similar to DRAMs except that SRAMs are based on a minimum four transistor memory cell which is
configured into a flip-flop circuit. Some SRAMs do not need to have the memory cells refreshed since the bit information is represented by a steady
state current in one side of the flip-flop and no current in the other, however "Pseudo SRAMs" have a built-in oscillator which enables self
refreshment. Pseudo SRAMs hence behave as a DRAM but are included in M2 for reporting purposes.
Mask Programmable Read Only Memory are non-volatile circuits which have single transistor memory cells that are locked on or off in a predetermined pattern by means of a masking procedure during the fabrication process.
MOS Mask PROM & EPROM
EPROM - Electrically Programmable Read Only Memory devices are non-volatile circuits similar to Mask PROMs except that the memory data
pattern is programmed by electrical means rather than a fixed mask. Included are OTP, One Time Programmable devices, from which the
programmed memory data pattern is not erasable. EPROMs other than OTPs have a window in the package whereby theprogrammed memory
data pattern may be erased using ultra-violet light and then electrically reprogrammed.

OMB Control No. 0694-0119
MOS MPU
The MPU category includes ICs which execute external instructions and perform system control functions as programmed via software with the
assembly language instructions retrieved from external memory with data read from and written to external RAM devices to perform system
functions. This set up allows the MPU to receive a variety of input commands, manipulate data, direct storage of data and initiate application
commands to the outside world. The most common usage is in Multi-Task Computer systems such as PCs. The ICs in this category include
Complex Instruction Set Computers (CISC) and Reduced Instruction Set Computers (RISC).The architecture is optimized for general-purpose data
processing and includes an instruction decoder, arithmetic logic unit, registers and additional logic to support operation per an assembly language.
There is no addressable ROM or RAM within the device, but may include dedicated registers, ROM for micro code and/or on-chip cache.
MOS MCU
These ICs are stand-alone devices, which perform dedicated or embedded computer functions within an overall electronic system without the need
of other support circuits. Like microprocessors these include an instruction decoder, arithmetic logic unit, registers and support logic (UARTs,
Counter Timers, Comparators, etc.). Unlike microprocessors, MCUs contain some form of ROM, EPROM or Flash Memory, which are programmed
to store customer-supplied instructions. The MCU also incorporates read-write memory (RAM) for temporary storage.The embedded instructions
cause the MCU to perform pre-determined tasks such as controlling functions in TV, VCR, microwave ovens and automobile engines. In more
complex applications the device may need peripheral logic devices or external memory but for simple tasks the device is self-sufficient.
General Purpose MCU
All MCUs including those designed for specific applications and general purposes, other than Smart Cards (i.e. IC cards).
Automotive MCU
MCUs designed for application in automotive entertainment, navigation, driver information, engine controls and all other automotive applications.
Automotive MCUs are classified into (I) P5x Infotainment (Information & Entertainment Systems) and (II) P5y Other Automotive
Smart Card MCU
MCUs specifically designed for use in Smart Cards (i.e. IC cards). Total of the Smart Card MCU is classified into the following three (3) sets of
subcategories, i.e. (i) by Data Bus, (ii) by Application, and (iii) by Interface.
MOS DSP
Displays
Light Sensors
Lamps
Unlike other processors, which usually are embedded in some digital Microcomputer system, DSPs are most commonly used in analog systems to
process real time data. Such systems require conversion of the analog signals to digital and hence the systems need A-D and DA converters,
which may be integrated on the chip of the DSP used in such systems. The DSPs use parallel multipliers with separate program and data areas
(Harvard type architecture), which provide very high-speed performance required in "Sum-of-Product" operations.
Single or Multiple Digit character displays are reported as complete assemblies.
Monolithic and assembled modules that detect presence of light and change it into electrical voltages or currents. Such devices include discrete
and combo sensors, such as Ambient Light Sensors (ALS), Proximity Sensors (including IR LED Emitter in a same package), Color Sensors
(RGB), Ultraviolet Sensors, Heart Rate Sensors, etc.
Discrete solid-state light source (visible only) of any size, shape, color and light intensity.
Opto Couplers & Isolators
The device consisting of optical emitting die (mostly infrared) and a silicon detector which is optically coupled with the emitter. The device may be a
phototransistor, opto triac or opto IC, integrated into a single package. Coupling devices are designed for signal transmission between two
electrically separated circuits. Isolaters perform galvanic and electrical isolation between input and output circuitry by using isolating material. The
change of the output signal is driven by the change of the input signal. These devices are primarily used to protect the microcontroller from
interferences from the power side of the circuitry, in such applications as power supplies, line receivers, computer interfaces, etc.
Optical Switches
Transmissive switches include an emitting die (mostly infrared) and a detector located on the opposite side of the optical axes in a single package,
and the light path is broken or modified by an external physical object. Transmissive switches are used for small distances and narrow objects.
Reflective switches have the emitter positioned next to the detector, and the signal transmission goes by reflection of a dedicated media. Reflective
switches are used for a wide range of distances and objects of different shapes. Interrupters convert mechanical movements into electrical signals.
With these devices, the change of the output signal is made by interrupt or reflection of an infrared beam with a media.
CCD & Other Image Sensors
CCD and all Image Sensors not included under F5b below.
CMOS Image Sensors
Image sensors in CMOS technology including ancillary analog and/or digital circuit functions on the same chip.
Other Optoelectronics

business. Foundries are: 1) businesses dedicated solely to manufacturing integrated circuit products for fabless integrated circuit companies and
other businesses; and/or 2) organizations that chiefly design and manufacture their own integrated circuit products, but that also operate a
business of manufacturing IC products for other entities for a fee.
Full Time Equivalent (FTE) Employees
Employees who work for 40 hours in a normal work week. Convert part-time employees into "full time equivalents" by taking their work hours as a
fraction of 40 hours.
Integrated Circuit (IC)
Manufacturing
Analog or digital devices that incorporate transistors, diodes, capacitors, resistors, and other circuit elements that are integrated on a single
substrate (chip), typically silicon.
The production of a working integrated circuit product at a fabrication facility.
Manufacturing Facility
A facility that transforms integrated circuit designs into integrated circuit devices using an array of fabrication equipment including photolithography,
deposition, etch, wafer dicing, and testing tools. These facilities produce functioning die as an end-product, devices that may be built with
electronics-grade silicon or compound semiconductor materials, including gallium arsenide, gallium nitride, indium phosphide, and others.
Non-U.S. Company
For the purpose of this survey, a non-U.S. company is an organization (publicly traded, privately held, for profit, not-for-profit, or non-profit) that is
domiciled at a location outside of the United States. Companies that are a business unit of a parent organization with legal domicile located outside
of the United States are non-U.S. companies.

A company, firm, laboratory, or other entity that owns or controls one or more U.S. establishment(s) capable of designing and/or manufacturing
integrated circuit products. A company may be an individual proprietorship, partnership, joint venture, or corporation including any subsidiary
corporation in which more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting stock is owned by a business trust, cooperative, trustee(s) in bankruptcy, or
receiver(s) under decree of any court owning or controlling one or more establishment.
To obtain goods and/or services by contract from a supplier (domestic or foreign) outside the organization.
Conceptualization and development of a product prior to the production of the product for customers.
Basic and applied research in the engineering sciences, as well as design and development of prototype products and processes.
Elemental materials such as silicon and germanium (or compounds like gallium arsenide) that possess levels of electrical conductivity that are less
than a conductor but greater than an insulator. The properties of these materials and similar ones can be manipulated to affect conductivity
through temperature and/or the use of dopants.
An intangible product (contrasted to a good, which is a tangible product). Services typically cannot be stored or transported, are instantly
perishable, or come into existence at the time they are bought and consumed.
An organization that is designated as the only accepted source for the supply of parts, components, materials, or services, even though other
sources with equivalent technical know-how and production capability may exist.
An organization that is the only source for the supply of parts, components, materials, or services. No alternative U.S. or non-U.S. based suppliers
exist other than the current supplier.
An entity from which your organization obtains inputs, which may be goods or services. A supplier may be another firm with which you have a
contractual relationship, or it may be another facility owned by the same parent organization.
The "United States" or "U.S." includes the 50 states, Puerto Rico, the District of Columbia, Guam, the Trust Territories, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
The number of semiconductor wafers that can be processed by an integrated circuit production line in a 7-day period.
