Microsemi Corporation

Microsemi Corporation (Nasdaq:MSCC) is a semiconductor manufacturer specializing in system-engineered integrated circuits and high reliability discrete devices to support its steady growth and profitability.

A long-time supplier of high-reliability discrete components to military and aerospace customers, Microsemi has transformed itself into a global supplier of high performance analog, mixed-signal integrated circuits and high reliability discrete semiconductors that manage and regulate power, protect against transient voltage spikes, and transmit, receive and amplify electronic signals.

Microsemi serves premier companies in five broad markets: mobile connectivity, notebooks/monitors, medical, defense/aerospace and automotive.

By working closely with other key suppliers as well as our customers' development teams, Microsemi is able to identify unique ways to influence future designs - beyond the scope of simple product enhancements. The resulting "system-engineered" solutions create must-have products with competitive barriers and higher margins.

Research and development investment for Microsemi's high margin growth market products is at a competitive level, rising from less than $2 million in 1998 to more than $19 million in 2003.

Microsemi has established itself in a leadership position for managing power that lights color displays in automotive GPS systems, notebook computers, computer monitors and LCD TVs. Its patented RangeMAX® technology provides the only approved solution for lighting cold cathode florescent lamps in the extreme temperature encountered in automotive applications, as well as providing the dimming ratio requirements of automobiles sold in the U.S.

Microsemi's advanced power amplifiers for wireless LAN applications are leaders in the rapidly growing IEEE 802.11a/b/g market.

Incorporated in 1960, Microsemi has established a consistent history of profitable operation.
