The origin of our products lies in the development of CMOS ICs for quartz watches. We downsized quartz mechanisms from the size of a locker to something small enough to be worn on a wrist, and succeeded in bringing to production analog semiconductors that function accurately while using only a minute amount of energy. The safe and reliable leading-edge technology cultivated through our research and manufacturing is seeing increasing utilization in the latest key devices, including those for automobiles, smartphones, and healthcare.
