For more than three decades ESS™ Technology has been on the cutting edge of audio technology. A privately held, fabless semiconductor company, ESS Technology designs and markets high-performance analog and audio devices for mobile, consumer, automotive, and professional audiophile systems. The company was founded in 1984 by Forest Mozer to produce synthetic speech for various devices including the first wave of speech enabled toys and iconic home computer systems, like the Commodore 64. Today ESS Technology is best known for its SABRE series of high- performance audio products.

Princeton Infrared Technologies, Inc. (PIRT) is focused on supplying Shortwave Infrared detectors to both the commercial and defense markets. PIRT is a fabless semiconductor company focusing on design and integration. The products will be manufactured by leveraging more established semiconductor fabrication facilities to produce products in quantity with high quality at low cost. This model is used through the semiconductor industry, but not in the infrared detector business. In the past the infrared imaging industry had no commercial foundries to manufacture the “exotic” materials used to produce IR detectors, but that today is no longer true. Now that fabrication facilities can manufacture infrared parts, our fabless model will lead to much lower cost and improved devices for both the defense and the commercial sectors. Also, leveraging advance Silicon CMOS technologies enables PIRT to gain the advantages of technology developed for the commercial arena. Having the fabrication conducted at an outside foundry allows PIRT to concentrate on design of the product, managing the process, and conducting final assembly, which minimizes the equipment and staff needed, thus overhead costs. This is the model used by almost all modern electronic manufacturers.
