QP Releases QP741 & QP747

Drop-In Replacements for Discontinued National & Fairchild Products

Santa Clara, CA, April 12, 2010 – QP Semiconductor, the leading fabless manufacturer of
hermetic high reliability ICs, today announced the release of the QP741 and QP747 Operational
Amplifiers. These products are fully re-engineered and manufactured on a mainstream Bipolar
process and serve as drop-in replacements for the National/ Fairchild LM741 used in key
Mil/Aero applications.
The QP741 is a monolithic single purpose operational amplifier and the QP747 is sourced from
the same design to provide the dual functional capability. Both products have been qualified
and are now listed on the DSCC 38510/101 drawing.
The 741 remains one of the most popular operational amplifiers ever produced and it continues
serving a very broad installed base in many military programs. Forecasts signal that market
inventories of these military grade devices will deplete within the near-term. QP is positioned to
be the sole supplier of these devices for several critical defense programs that are experiencing
continued demand, including the Patriot Missile System.
“This further expands our unparalleled offering of over 400 QP designs and affirms our market
position as the premier supplier of mission critical drop-in replacements, mitigating threats of IC
obsolescence and reducing the total cost to our customers.”, said Jim Townsend, executive vp
at QP Semiconductor. “These QP products have a very broad base of applications which
enables us to see the entire spectrum of all DMS components at the module, board and system
level. This visibility enables QP to grow the product portfolio, produce more cost-saving
solutions for our customers and maintain our position as the market leader in obsolescence
mitigation for mil/aero programs”.
The QP741 and QP747 are now available in production quantities and hermetic package styles,
