▤ Summary

CARLSBAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MaxLinear Inc. (NYSE: MXL), a leading provider of radio frequency (RF), analog, digital and mixed-signal integrated circuits, announced today that it has completed the acquisition of NanoSemi, Inc., an industry-leading provider of intellectual property that utilizes patented machine learning techniques to improve signal integrity and power efficiency in SoCs, ASICs, and FPGAs used in next-generation communication and artificial intelligence systems. The company’s technology enables higher throughput connections for 5G and Wi-Fi base stations and smartphones while simultaneously dramatically reducing energy consumption. NanoSemi technology is truly an order of magnitude improvement over existing solutions,” said Kishore Seendripu, Ph.D., Chairman and CEO of MaxLinear. Our joint solutions will dramatically reduce the enormous amounts of power consumed by 5G systems today.” MaxLinear, Inc. (NYSE: MXL) is a leading provider of radio frequency (RF), analog, digital and mixed-signal integrated circuits for access and connectivity, wired and wireless infrastructure, and industrial and multimarket applications. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements: wireless and 5G markets may not develop in the way we currently anticipate; the status of tariffs, export controls, and other government imposed restrictions on trade remains uncertain, particularly with respect to China, and could adversely affect the wireless market in particular; intense competition in the wireless market specifically and in the semiconductor industry generally could adversely affect our future operating results; and we face other risks relating to development, testing, and commercial introduction of new products, the lack of long term supply contracts, decreases in average selling prices, and intellectual property litigation.
