Company Products

Combining analog and digital technologies, the Company focuses on analog-based semiconductor products, including stand-alone components and subsystems in the areas of power management, graphics technology, display drivers, audio and operational amplifiers, interface products, and data conversion solutions. Analog chip products are targeted at the mobile phone, display, various portable sets and a broad range of electronics markets, including medical devices, automotive electronic systems, industrial systems, and test and measurement equipment.

Its network interface ICs were widely used in the 1990s and became the de facto standard, especially its wide range of temperature environments, which allowed it to be used in industrial scenarios, outdoor environments, and other harsh environments, and it was the first in the industry to launch a Gigabit Ethernet controller IC in 2001.
