Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) manufactures over 75,000 analog and mixed signal semiconductor products spanning from components to sub systems, supplied to 125,000+ customers across the world in a variety of industries and businesses. They deliver products through their network of wafer fabs, foundries, and assembly and test factories that are owned by ADI partners. Its network consists of 10 internal factories and 50 partner factories across 15 countries.
They are the market leader in data convertors and high-performance amplifiers. They produce other semiconductor components including advanced linear products, high speed convertors, precision convertors, high speed fiber optic ICs, and power management products including low-dropout regulators (LDOs), dc/dc converters, battery chargers, charge pumps, and regulators.
Strategy and sustainability
In 2023, the company invested over $1 Billion to expand its semiconductor wafer fab in Beaverton, Oregon. The investment expands the facilities cleanroom space to around 118,000 sq-ft and nearly doubles internal manufacturing of products running on the 180-nanometer technology node and above. The focus of the investment was to improve the efficiency of the fab and decrease environmental impact. Despite nearly doubling production output, the investment aims to reduce the facilities absolute greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 75% and water usage per production unit by approximately 50%. According to the companies 2023 sustainability report, the site reduced UPW usage by approximately 60 gpm by reducing tool idle flows to their lowest possible values, updated Reverse Osmosis and scrubber reclaim systems to expand water reuse, and have also employed ADI technology in water sensors to map ultrapure water (UPW) at the facility, using a dashboard tool to capture data and an additional mechanism to measure UPW reclaim flow
In 2020, Analog was the first U.S. semiconductor company to issue $400M green bond, and in 2024, they were listed in the Carbon Clean200, the 200 major corporate players, from 35 countries around the world, that are at the forefront of “The Great Energy Transition.”
