Qorvo to Acquire Active-Semi

eetimes.com, Apr. 10, 2019 – 

RF specialist Qorvo said it is buying Active-Semi International, a fabless company with expertise in power efficiency and power management, which have become critical skills for designing circuitry for 5G equipment, the Internet of things (IoT), and a rapidly growing list of other products.

Active-Semi is venture-backed and private. Given that, Qorvo is under no obligation to state what it payed for Active-Semi, and it didn't. Active-Semi will become part of Qorvo's Infrastructure and Defense Products (IDP) group.

Qorvo president and CEO Bob Bruggeworth said in a statement, "With the acquisition of Active-Semi, Qorvo will expand IDP's product offerings for existing customers and extend our reach into new high-growth power management markets."

In addition to 5G, Qorvo said those markets include industrial, data center, automotive, and smart home products.

Power efficiency is increasingly a core requirement in electronic applications in IDP's existing markets, including 5G base stations, active phased arrays for defense, automotive, and IoT, Qorvo said.

Qorvo expects to complete the deal before the end of its fiscal first quarter, which ends June 29, 2019.
