  Nordic Semiconductor - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
Nordic Semiconductor (formerly Nordic VLSI) is a fabless semiconductor company, developing and manufacturing integrated circuits.
Nordic Semiconductor has been ISO 9001 certified by DNV since 1996, and the certificate was upgraded to ISO 9001-2000 in 2001.
In 1996, Nordic Semiconductor was listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange's SME list.

Nordic VLSI made the decision to migrate to the 0.18µm pure CMOS fabrication process for the nRF24xx family, a move which competitors in the industry are struggling to match.
Nordic had previous project experience with this technology and its clear benefits were brought to bear during the device’s concept.
Nordic VLSI engineers have found that the interference that is created by these technologies is minimal and only in the most extreme situations is communication compromised.

 Integrated circuit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the 1980s pin counts of VLSI circuits exceeded the practical limit for DIP packaging, leading to pin grid array (PGA) and leadless chip carrier (LCC) packages.
This step was largely made possible by the codification of "design rules" for the CMOS technology used in VLSI chips, which made production of working devices much more of a systematic endeavour.
However there is no qualitative leap between VLSI and ULSI, hence normally in technical texts the "VLSI" term covers ULSI as well, and "ULSI" is reserved only for cases when it is necessary to emphasize the chip complexity, e.g.
