Sipex

Sipex Corporation was a prominent semiconductor manufacturer specializing in analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits. Founded in the 1980s, the company established a strong reputation for designing and producing high-performance products such as power management ICs, interface solutions, and optical storage components. Its innovative technologies were widely used across computing, communications, and consumer electronics applications. In 2007, Sipex was acquired by Exar Corporation, which continued to develop and support its product lines. The acquisition expanded Exar’s portfolio, integrating Sipex’s expertise in areas like voltage regulators and motor drivers. Though the Sipex brand was eventually absorbed, its legacy persists through ongoing product development and industry influence.
