Nordic Semiconductor announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Mobile Semiconductor, a privately-held U.S. company specializing in highly optimized embedded memory technology for microcontrollers (MCUs) and Systems-on-Chip (SoCs).
Mobile Semiconductor has a market-proven track record of delivering ultra-low power-performance-optimized, leading-edge static RAM (SRAM) memory technology for various MCUs and SoCs. This includes Nordic Semiconductor’s very own nRF52® and nRF53® Series SoC and nRF91® Series System-in-Package (SiP) devices.
Nordic CTO/EVP R&D and Strategy, Svein-Egil Nielsen
We are very excited to bring on-board this world class team, recognized as an industry leader in optimized, low voltage embedded SRAM designs. A team we know intimately from years of working together. And in terms of the technology, Mobile Semiconductor’s SRAM has been a key differentiator in our Bluetooth and cellular IoT product ranges. As such, when the opportunity to bring this critical expertise in-house arose, it was a no-brainer to proceed and make this latest acquisition.
