Leadership in Mixed-Signal Technology

By leveraging our leadership position in CMOS mixed-signal IC design and system-on-chip integration processes, Teridian consistently keeps our customers on the leading edge of technology innovations and enables them to capitalize on new market opportunities.

Teridian Semiconductor strives to Simplify System Integration™ for its customers with a focus on accelerating system development, and reducing the engineering time required to achieve production. This is what sets us apart from other semiconductor companies. We specialize in select applications where we can provide the complete support needed (including expert domain knowledge) to enable our customers to integrate our chips into the critical elements of their system (microprocessor, printed circuit board, software) as smoothly as possible. As we identify opportunities that meet these criteria, we expand our product offering to meet the evolving technical and business requirements of each unique application.

We provide value to our customers by shortening their product introduction cycles and lowering R&D expenditures with system-on-chip solutions that pre-integrate discrete functions into market-optimized system solutions, while still giving OEMs wide latitude for customization and differentiation of their end products.

Track-Record of Innovation

We began innovating 35 years ago as Silicon Systems, Inc. In 1996, TDK acquired Silicon Systems and expanded the company's product portfolio. Teridian was established in 2005 when Golden Gate Capital acquired the team and products from TDK. Some examples of our track record of industry leadership and design innovation include:

Secure Access & Networking

  • Over 100 Million Set Top Boxes shipped with Teridian ICs
  • Industry's first capacitive SiDAA modem technology
  • Industry's smallest Ethernet PHY

Energy & Automation

  • 20 years of metering innovation with GE, Landis & Gyr, Elster, Actaris, & other industry leaders
  • Industry's most integrated residential metering product line
  • Industry's first programmable electronic trip unit standard product
