Thanks David, However the new NSM fab in Portland Maine is an 8" fab which is quickly ramping up, the one in Arlington,Texas is 6" and has been for years. I think TI is also 6" and 8" and Maxim is 6". The guys with the manufacturing clout will quickly bury the small players unless they have a "niche" technology with the associated patents. If there is enough of a market then the big guys will likely buy the company and patents of the niche players. regards, BB
