The strong alliance has made ADI possible, and hot materials have been released frequently recently!
ADI has established its status as an analog giant through three key mergers and acquisitions. After the integration, the high-end product line continues to develop. Many materials are in hot demand in the industrial, automotive, and communications fields and have become popular materials in the market.
1. The rise of ADI: three major mergers and acquisitions
- 2014 Acquisition of Hittite($2 billion)Strengthen radio frequency/microwave technology and enter the high-end market of communications and radar.
- 2017 Acquisition of Linear (Linear Technology)($14.8 billion)Strengthen high-end power management and becomeThe world's second largest analog chip factory。
- 2021 Acquisition of Maxim($20.9 billion)Improve the sensor, interface, and vehicle specification product lines and consolidate high-end barriers.
2. AD series popular materials (mainly high-precision signal chain)
- AD7606BSTZ: 8-channel 16-bit ADC, industrial/medical high-precision acquisition, about 90 yuan
- ADXL357BEZ: 3-axis high-precision MEMS accelerometer, IMU/earthquake monitoring, about 500 yuan
