Solid State Supplies PLC
20 December 1999
As a result of Texas Instruments' purchase of Unitrode and their subsequent
decision to channel distribution through the existing Texas Instruments'
distributor network, Solid State Supplies will cease to be a franchised
distributor for Unitrode from 31st January 2000.
Following Micrel Semiconductor's purchase of Synergy Semiconductor, Solid
State Supplies will now hold a franchise for Synergy in addition to the Micrel
range with immediate effect.
Solid State Supplies can also announce the signing of a franchise agreement
with Altima Communications Inc.
Unitrode are manufacturers of analogue products whilst both Synergy and Altima
offer digital products for the fast growing Telecommunications and Internet
infrastructure market, an area on which Solid State Supplies is focusing.
