SkyWater Technology Foundry is a U.S.-owned semiconductor manufacturer and DMEA-accredited Trusted supplier, producing chips for aerospace, defense, automotive, and other sectors in American facilities.
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.
