SkyWater Technology Foundry, Inc. is the largest U.S. semiconductor foundry free of foreign controlling ownership. The company is a DMEA-accredited Trusted supplier and operates as a pure-play Technology Foundry, manufacturing chips exclusively in American facilities located in Minnesota, Florida, and Texas. SkyWater's accreditation as a Trusted supplier is significant: it means the company is cleared to manufacture microelectronics for the U.S. Department of Defense and other sensitive government applications.
The company serves several industry verticals, with aerospace and defense being a core focus alongside automotive, biomedical, industrial, and quantum computing. SkyWater's technical capabilities span mixed-signal CMOS, radiation-hardened integrated circuits, power discretes, MEMS, superconducting ICs, photonics, carbon nanotubes, and interposer technologies. Radiation-hardened ICs in particular are essential for military and space applications where electronics must withstand harsh environments.
SkyWater reported revenue of $442.1 million for fiscal year 2025, reflecting 29% year-over-year growth. The company expanded its manufacturing capacity through the acquisition of Infineon's Fab 25 in Austin, Texas. It offers a "Technology as a Service" model that combines development services, volume production, and heterogeneous integration, providing customers a streamlined path from prototype to production in domestic facilities.
