Dow Jones Description

We are a radio frequency (RF) semiconductor company providing RF product solutions worldwide to communications equipment companies. We design, develop and manufacture innovative, high performance products for both current and next generation wireless and RF identification (RFID) systems. Our RF product solutions are comprised of advanced, highly functional RF semiconductors, components and integrated assemblies that address the radio frequency challenges of these various systems. We currently generate the majority of our revenue from our products utilized in wireless networks. Our revenue from our products used in RF identification systems represents a less significant portion of our current revenue, however, we believe these systems represent one of our future growth opportunities. The RF challenge is to create product designs that function within the unique parameters of various wireless system architectures. Our solution is comprised of design expertise, advanced device technology and manufacturability. Our communications products are used by telecommunication equipment manufacturers supporting and facilitating mobile communications, enhanced voice services, data and image transport. Our objective is to be a leading supplier of innovative RF semiconductor products. We announced on October 10, 2007 that we had engaged Thomas Weisel Partners as our financial advisor to assist us in the evaluation of strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value. ...
