Fairchild Semiconductor Opens Design Center in South America

Fairchild Semiconductor has expanded its Global Power Resource design centers to nine worldwide with the addition of a facility in Sao Paulo, Brazil. This new design center responds to the burgeoning high-technology markets in South America. Fairchild is focusing on the South American region, projected by WSTS to have a 14 percent growth rate in 2006 and nearly 10 percent in 2007, to support its manufacturing customers in the consumer electronic and appliance, lighting, automotive and telecom markets. The design center is staffed by electrical engineers with extensive design expertise and a keen understanding of the application requirements for more compact, energy-efficient, high functionality electronic applications.

Fairchild has eight other design centers in Germany, Korea, Taiwan, China and the US. These centers are part of the company's Global Power Resource initiative, offering not only system power design but also online design tools, evaluation boards, tutorials and joint research and development labs. To enhance and broaden support for its customers, Fairchild has integrated resources on its website with design, selection and educational tools for customers to access and optimize designs in real time. The goal of the Global Power Resource is to solve manufacturers' design challenges while helping them speed their product's time-to-market.
