Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. (MXIM) designs, develops, makes and markets a broad range of linear and mixed-signal integrated circuits known as analog circuits. Linear devices process signals representing real-world phenomena (such as temperature, pressure, sound or speed). Mixed-signal devices combine linear and digital functions. The company also provides a range of high-frequency design processes and capabilities that can be used in custom design. The analog market is highly fragmented and characterized by many diverse applications, a great number of product variations, and, as to many circuit types, relatively long product life cycles. MXIM's objective is to develop and market both proprietary and industry-standard analog integrated circuits that meet the increasingly stringent quality standards demanded by customers. Based on product announcements by its competitors, the company believes that in the past 18 years it has developed more products for the analog market, including proprietary and second-source products, than any of its competitors over the same period. MXIM's research and development programs emphasize development of technically innovative proprietary products. In addition, the company also develops second-source products used for industry- standard parts. In the product introduction year ending July 28, 2001, MXIM introduced over 500 products. The company's products are available with numerous packaging alternatives, including packages for surface mount technology. In April 2001, the company acquired Dallas Semiconductor Corp. for approximately 41.0 million Common shares. At the time of the acquisition, Dallas Semiconductor's product line consisted of 390 proprietary base products sold to over 15,000 customers worldwide. Applications for these products include battery management, broadband telecommunications, wireless handsets, cellular base stations, networking, servers, data storage, and a wide variety of industrial equipment. MXIM mainly serves four industry groups: communications, industrial control, instrumentation and data processing. Applications for the company's products include broadband networks, cable systems, PBX, video and wireless communications, flow control, robotics, automatic test equipment, data recorders, measuring instruments, bar code readers, disk drives, global positioning sytstems, hand-held computers/PDAs, mainframes, servers, personal computers and point-of-sale terminals. INCORPORATED in Delaware Aug. 19, 1987 as a wholly owned subsidiary of a California company of the same name, and on Feb. 24, 1988, merged parent. Parent was organized in April 1983.
