About Us

The Foundation of Innovation

Tigard Semiconductors Inc. was founded with a singular, high-stakes objective: to reclaim the frontier of microelectronics through uncompromising domestic precision. Headquartered in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, we have evolved from a specialized design boutique into a vital pillar of the global semiconductor supply chain. Our mission is to provide the literal foundation for the next epoch of computing, ensuring that every transistor we print serves as a reliable bridge between human ambition and machine execution. At Tigard, we don’t just manufacture silicon; we forge the tools that define the digital age.

Pioneering the 2nm Frontier

In an era where processing power is the ultimate global currency, Tigard stands apart by pushing the absolute boundaries of physics. Our 2026 roadmap is anchored by the industry’s most advanced sub-2nm architectures, utilizing next-generation Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Lithography to achieve transistor densities once thought impossible. This technical prowess is matched by our commitment to "Sustainable Silicon" a core philosophy that has already realized a 25% reduction in thermal output across our flagship lines. By prioritizing energy efficiency alongside raw performance, we enable our partners to scale their AI and data center operations without compromising their environmental mandates.

Domestic Resilience, Global Reach

While our roots and primary fabrication remain firmly planted in U.S. soil to ensure supply chain sovereignty, our vision is borderless. Tigard Semiconductors operates a "Follow the Sun" innovation model, seamlessly integrating our domestic "Silicon Heartland" Fabs with international Centers of Excellence in India, Germany, and Taiwan. This global synergy allows us to maintain 100% domestic resilience for critical infrastructure while tapping into a worldwide collective of genius. We believe that the challenges of tomorrow from Level 5 autonomy to on-device Generative AI require a unified, resilient approach to hardware that only Tigard can provide.

Our Core Values & Mission

At Tigard Semiconductors Inc., our operations are guided by a set of foundational principles that ensure we remain a leader in the microelectronics industry while serving the greater good of our global partners and the planet.

Mission Statement

"To architect a resilient, intelligent, and sustainable future by delivering the world’s most precise semiconductor solutions, built on a foundation of domestic sovereignty and global collaboration."

The Three Pillars of Tigard

To achieve our mission, we focus on three core values that define our culture and our output:

Sovereign Integrity: We believe in the importance of domestic manufacturing. By keeping our primary fabrication and assembly within the United States, we provide our clients with an unbreakable, transparent, and resilient supply chain that is immune to global geopolitical volatility.

Thermal Intelligence: Performance should not come at the cost of the environment. Our commitment to Sustainable Silicon focuses on radical efficiency, ensuring that our chips deliver more teraflops per watt than any competitor, reducing the carbon footprint of the world’s data centers.

Neural-First Innovation: We don’t just build general-purpose hardware. We design our architectures with the future of Generative AI in mind, optimizing every nanometer of silicon to handle the complex tensor mathematics required for the next generation of autonomous thought.
