PLL-based transmitters shrink into MLPs
A new range of low-power radio transmitter chips covering frequencies from 300 to 930MHz are the first devices of their type to be produced in the very tiny micro leadframe package.
This performance has resulted in the decision by Melexis' management to expand the franchise agreement to include Europe and to more actively collaborate with Future in existing franchise territories (North America and Asia).
Adding Future to the existing network of distributors and representatives will help Melexis to better cover the growing markets for automotive and industrial electronics.
Melexis' historic strength in the automotive market complements well the proven supply chain expertise Future demonstrates with automotive electronics OEMs worldwide.
Other products expected to underpin anticipated growth through this expanded agreement include high brightness LED driver ICs, Hall effect sensors, RF/RFID products, optoelectronic and GM-LAN and LINbus ICs.
Distribution Manager John Lavoie will guide the transition process at Melexis.
This opportunity to realise the tremendous sales growth potential of this agreement will happen directly as a result of co-operative training and promotion efforts planned mutually between Future and Melexis.
"We are excited with the extension of our partnership on a global basis", said Frantz Saintellemy, Corporate Director WW Product Marketing, Future Electronics.
"Melexis offers world class silicon solutions enabling Future to expand its presence in key automotive, industrial and consumer market segments".
