Intersil buys Chinese design company


Tuesday, December 15, 2009 Intersil Corp. is to acquire Rock Semiconductor, a privately-held, fabless semiconductor company that develops integrated power management ICs.

Rock Semiconductor (Shanghai, China) provides analogue and mixed-signal integrated circuits for wireless, audio, video and data communications solutions. It products are primarily used in the consumer end market in applications such as cellular phones, personal navigation devices, portable multimedia players and other types of popular consumer electronics products.

"Rock Semiconductor's products are a perfect fit with Intersil's rapidly expanding portfolio of power management, audio and communications ICs," said Dave Bell, Intersil's CEO. "In addition, the acquisition of Rock will immediately give Intersil a greatly expanded presence in the burgeoning local Chinese market."

Rock has design centres in Shanghai and Wuhan, China. "Rock's team of highly experienced analogue and mixed-signal design engineers will immediately increase our design capability and ability to serve hundreds of Chinese and global customers," added Bell.
