Maxim Integrated Products was established in 1983. In 2001, Maxim acquired Dallas Semiconductor. Maxim's mission is to deliver innovative analog and mixed-signal engineering solutions that add value to our customers' products. the core of any electronic product is a microprocessor that interacts with its environment梡eople, the physical world, power sources, and other digital systems. Maxim is a worldwide leader in the design, development, and manufacture of analog, mixed-signal, high-frequency, and digital circuits that enable all four of these key interactions.

Linear Technology Corporation designs, manufactures and markets a broad line of standard high performance integrated circuits. Applications for the Company's products include telecommunications, cellular telephones, networking products, notebook and desktop computers, video/multimedia, industrial instrumentation, automotive electronics, factory automation, process control, and military and space systems. The Company's principal product categories include amplifiers, battery management, data converters, high frequency, interface, voltage regulators and voltage references etc.

ADI defines innovation and excellence in signal processing. ADI's analog, mixed-signal, and digital signal processing (DSP) integrated circuits (IC) play a fundamental role in converting, conditioning, and processing real-world phenomena such as light, sound, temperature, motion, and pressure into electrical signals to be used in a wide array of electronic equipment. But that doesn  begin to capture the essence of what Analog Devices does for our customers, and ultimately for the end user.
