Infineon Technologies AG announced that its U.S. subsidiary, Infineon Technologies North America has acquired the assets of Morphics Technology Inc. for an undisclosed price.
With the acquisition of Morphics, based in Campbell, Calif., Infineon will strengthen its position in the 3G wireless sector and enlarge its intellectual-property (IP) portfolio for multi-standard solutions. For some time, Morphics has been developing “configurable” digital baseband circuits for 3G wireless applications.
"With this step, we not only strengthen our presence in the 3G infrastructure market; we are also accelerating the development of multi-network configurable mobile handsets," said Ulrich Hamann, CEO of Secure Mobile Solutions at Infineon, in a statement.
Founded in 1998, Morphics is a privately held fabless semiconductor company with 30 employees. Its technology enables programmable, multi-standard platforms for 3G and wireless local area networking (WLAN) systems.
The company is currently sampling its basestation signal processor product, which is entering trials in commercial networks, and is developing technology that enables efficient multi-network operation of terminals.
