Sipex
Sipex Corporation, a former leader in analog integrated circuits, specialized in power management, interface, and optical storage solutions. Founded with a focus on high-performance analog technologies, Sipex developed a broad portfolio of ICs designed to enhance efficiency and functionality in electronic systems. The company’s innovations served industries ranging from consumer electronics to industrial automation, providing reliable analog solutions for complex design challenges. Sipex was later acquired by Exar Corporation, which was subsequently acquired by MaxLinear, expanding its technological reach.
Sipex’s product lineup included voltage regulators, DC-DC converters, LED drivers, and interface solutions such as RS-232 and RS-485 transceivers. These components were engineered for precision, low power consumption, and high reliability, making them ideal for applications requiring efficient signal management and power regulation. With a strong emphasis on miniaturization and integration, Sipex products enabled engineers to design compact, high-performance systems with enhanced functionality.
Today, the legacy of Sipex lives on through MaxLinear, where its core technologies continue to support advanced electronic designs in telecommunications, automotive, industrial automation, and consumer electronics. The integration of Sipex’s expertise into MaxLinear’s portfolio ensures ongoing innovation in analog and mixed-signal solutions, providing engineers with cutting-edge components for next-generation applications.
