DoD extends Qorvo's Trusted Source accreditation through 2018, adding design services

Qorvo Inc of Greensboro, NC, USA (which provides core technologies and RF solutions for mobile, infrastructure and defense applications) has earned continued Trusted Source Category 1A accreditation through 2018 from the US Department of Defense (DoD). The original accreditation was received in 2008, followed by renewals in 2012 (adding post-processing, packaging/assembly and RF test services) and 2016 (expanded now to include design services). The firm is one of only five accredited suppliers for both gallium nitride (GaN) and gallium arsenide (GaAs).

The accreditation reflects the confidence of the DoD Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) and the National Security Agency's Trusted Access Program Office (TAPO) that Qorvo will continue to deliver Category 1A trusted foundry microelectronic goods and services that meet mission-critical needs today and in the future.

"This accreditation milestone signifies that the DoD and DMEA office trust Qorvo with national security technology," notes Roger Hall, general manager of Qorvo's High Performance Solutions business. "It also affirms to our commercial customers and partners that we will maintain the security of their intellectual property."
