Texas Advanced Optoelectronic Solutions, Inc. was founded in 1998. The headquarters is located in Plano, Texas. They focus much attention on optoelectronic solutions. Their semiconductor devices combine precision mixed-signal functionality with photo-detectors on the same integrated circuit to produce products with performance and cost advantages over conventional solutions. There are main offices in Canada, Mexico, United States, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, China, Cyprus, East Timor, Georgia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Makdives, Malaysia, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Phillipines, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Thailand, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Moldova, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Ukraine, United Kingdom, Bahrain, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, United Arad Emirates, Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Aruba, Barbados and etc. Their product line includes ambient light sensor, ALS & proximity detection, light-to-digital, color sensor, light-to-frequency, light-to-voltage, linear sensor array. TAOS’s intellective opto sensors facilitate the measurement and analog-to-digital conversion of light which are designed to reduce the demand for signal conditioning or pre-processing circuitry in light-centric systems. Their light sensing solutions increase system performance and decrease design-cycle time giving designers the benefit and performance they require at an attractive system cost. They have received the ISO9001:2000 certification and obtained the “Product of the Year” award and “Best of Sensors Expo Fall2002” in 2002.
