Fairchild
today
Fairchild Semiconductor International is the leading global supplier of high performance semiconductor products in the power, interface, analog, mixed signal, logic, optoelectronic and configurable products markets. As the industry’s first multi-market company, Fairchild has a rich history of leading-edge innovation; this tradition continues through a singular focus on creatively managing, converting, minimizing and distributing power, one of the most important defining characteristics of a semiconductor company in the early 21st century. the power franchise™ Growing populations and developing countries with increased access to today’s portable technologies will require high performance consumer, industrial, computer and communication technologies that work faster and more efficiently while consuming less power. And few companies offer more products for the management, conversion, distribution and minimization of power than Fairchild. From the beginning, in 1997, the "New Fairchild" has had a singular strategy: to be the world's leading supplier of high performance products to multiple end market applications. It reached its goal by making strategic acquisitions, developing new products and focusing on product applications and market segments with the most potential for growth. But Fairchild won't stop there. Its goal is to capture a 10% share of its target markets by developing an increasingly diverse portfolio of power, interface and optoelectronics products for the global consumer, industrial, computer, automotive and communication markets. power: the key to growth Industry trends lean toward lower output voltages, more power, tighter power regulation and faster response to changes in load current. Battery management will require more accurate gauging and management of a variety of chemicals; off-line switching will require under- and over-voltage protection; new backlight technologies will require higher power and better efficiencies; microprocessors will run from one-volt supplies yet consume two watts of power in portable digital appliances like personal digital assistants (PDAs) and digital cameras; and higher automotive electronic content will require faster, more efficient, more robust components. Fairchild’s broad power portfolio features a diverse number of high performance components for managing, converting, distributing and minimizing power requirements. No matter where you go -- at home, at work, along the street, or at play, Fairchild is there, powering the world with one of the industry’s most extensive offerings of high performance power analog, power discrete, interface and logic products for today’s leading-edge technologies. headquarters South Portland, Maine U.S.A. design facilities South Portland, Maine; San Jose, California; Bucheon, South Korea; Singapore; Salt Lake City, Utah; Colorado Springs, Colorado and Mountaintop, Pennsylvania. manufacturing facilities South Portland, Maine; Bucheon, South Korea; Singapore; Salt Lake City, Utah and Mountaintop, Pennsylvania. assembly and test plants Cebu, the Phillipines; Kuala Lumpur and Penang, Malaysia; and Suzhou, China. acquisitions Contents learn
