Title: a fabless design house developing patented SiFET technologies for ultrahigh efficiency, lowpower ele


1
  • a fabless design house developing patented SiFET
    technologies for ultra-high efficiency, low-power
    electronics

2
The Problem
Low dropout regulators (LDOs) are used in almost
all portable electronics to ensure constant
supply voltage as the battery voltage falls with
time
The LDO chip itself uses some voltage of its
own(called the dropout voltage) The higher the
dropout voltage the lower the efficiency, and the
shorter the battery lifetime.Existing LDO chips
have dropout voltages gt50 mV and require
additional componentse.g. to ensure stable
operation
3
Our Solution
Our patented Si-FET technology has several key
advantages
  • ultra-low dropout voltages (lt20 mV) ? higher
    efficiency, longer battery lifetime
  • requires fewer external components ? reduced
    volume, reduced cost, increased reliability
  • Si-FET technology is robust and suitable for
    aerospace industry
  • similar parts will be developed for the
    high-volume/low-margins commercial sector as well
    as the low-volume/high-margins aerospace industry

4
The Opportunity
The LDO market is growing and is not dominated by
a single manufacturer
5
The Company
  • SJT Micropower Established in 2000 to protect IP
    being developed at ASU and demonstrate technical
    feasibility
  • 3 international patents already issued and 3 more
    pending as a result of gt 1.5M in federally
    funded research at ASU
  • Since 2005 we have been awarded 5 SBIR/STTR
    contracts from DARPA, NASA, SFAz and NIH totaling
    705k- 1.5M of Phase II funding is pending
  • Si FET technology demonstrated at three
    commercial foundries and two government labs

Our Team
  • Steven Wood CEOgt 20 years experience in the
    power components industry.Has successfully led
    several businesses in the power electronics
    industry which have been acquired at attractive
    valuations.
  • Trevor Thornton, PhD Founder and President of
    SJT Micropower.Currently professor of Electrical
    Engineering at ASU with 24 years experience
    designing and testing novel semiconductor devices
  • Seth Wilk, PhD Senior Engineer ASU PhD 2005
    RF/Low noise circuit design
  • William Lepkowski Senior Engineer PhD
    Candidate in EE, ASU MESFET layout and
    characterization
  • Asha Balijepalli Principal RF Engineer PhD
    Candidate in EE, ASU. She has held engineering
    internship positions at Freescale where she has
    worked on LD-MOS power amplifier design.

Proposition
We are seeking 2.5M in funding over the next 18
months to develop prototypes in sufficient volume
to begin marketing in the US in Q3 2009.
