Semtech expands presence in China

The new design centre in Shenzen to expand regional design and application support.

Semtech, a supplier of analogue and mixed signal semiconductors, announced it has opened a new design and application centre in Shenzhen, China. The new design centre demonstrates Semtech’s expanded level of commitment to customers in the region. The centre will provide design and applications support for Semtech’s Protection, Power Management and Advanced Communications & Sensing products.

The centre's comprehensive Protection testing laboratory matches the capability available at Semtech’s US headquarters, offering extensive testing capabilities and ESD protection consultancy to support a wide range of customers in telecom, mobile phones, set top boxes, digital TVs, and other high end consumer applications. The centre is also equipped with state of the art equipment and is being staffed with experienced engineers to support customers designing analogue platforms in the high end consumer, communications, computing and industrial segments. The office will focus on ultra low power and green power applications and will initially provide system level application support, system testing, turnkey solution assistance and reference design development.

“Expanding our design and application assistance in China allows us to provide our customers in the region with a broad range of resources and support to leverage Semtech’s advanced technology in their designs,” said Dr. Liu Yang, Director of the centre. “We are committed to providing a higher level of service to our customers and helping to speed their time to market.”
