Dedicated support where Europe is strong

The communications industry is one of the industries that has suffered most from the current economic downturn. But compared to many other parts of the world, Europe has still maintained a competitive edge.

Europe leads in telecom

Silicon solutions for telecom

NEC Electronics, an  independent semiconductor company, has specialised in the communication segment. On the one hand, NEC offers a wide range of general-purpose products - from power MOSFET, RF components, peripheral ICs and opto electronics to a wide variety of microprocessors and controllers. On the other hand, NEC’s Application Specific Standard Products (ASSP) already integrate the standardised functions often required in telecommunications. ATM, Ethernet and other communication interfaces are good examples. Additionally, there is the field of customised ASICs – where high-end transport systems and switch functions demand the most advanced technologies. Technical solutions drawing on NEC’s established 130 nm and 90 nm process offer excellent opportunities to optimise for both speed and power. These technical solutions have the powerful support of NEC’s experienced technical team based at the European Technology Center in Düsseldorf.
