GTronix

Founded in 2003, GTronix is a fabless semiconductor company developing novel analog technology to extract real-world sensory information for portable consumer electronic products. Its mission is to become a market and technology leader in bringing local intelligence to sensory interfaces through the application of its programmable and adaptive anal... og VLSI signal processing capability. The company's APT Technology - Smart Analog for Sensory Processing - leverages proprietary analog algorithms, a programmable floating gate transistor structure and new circuit design techniques for implementing signal processing functions. GTronix will apply its APT Technology, covered by 15 patents, to create silicon and module products for customers requiring ultra-low power, size and cost for portable consumer electronics. Headquartered in Fremont, Calif., with offices in Atlanta, GA and Richardson, TX, the venture-backed startup firm secured an initial seed funding round from the Georgia Tech incubator and subsequent rounds from Menlo Ventures and JAFCO Ventures. Its products will be manufactured by Vanguard International Semiconductor Company using standard CMOS technology.Read More
