Stock Report: Fairchild Semiconductor International Inc. (FCS) Report Updated: May 20, 2013 | Print This Page

Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc. designs, develops, manufactures, and sells power analog, power discrete, and non-power semiconductor solutions worldwide. The company operates in three segments: Mobile, Computing, Consumer, and Communication (MCCC); Power Conversion, Industrial, and Automotive (PCIA); and Standard Discrete and Standard Linear (SDT). The MCCC segment provides analog and mixed signal integrated circuits (ICs), and low voltage power MOSFETs; signal path products, including analog and digital switches, USB switches, video filters, and audio amplifiers; and semiconductor solutions, including power discrete MOSFETs, analog ICs, and integrated multi-chip and monolithic power solutions. Its analog products monitor, interpret, and control variable functions, such as light, color, sound, and energy. The PCIA segment offers power discrete semiconductors, and analog and mixed signal ICs for the broad power conversion/power management, industrial, and automotive applications. Its analog and mixed signal ICs are used to control discrete semiconductors in applications, such as power switching, conditioning, signal amplification, power distribution, and power consumption. The SDT segment offers semiconductor products, including MOSFET, junction field effect transistors, high power bipolar, discrete small signal transistors, TVS, Zeners, rectifiers, bridge rectifiers, Schottky devices, and diodes; and bipolar regulators, shunt regulators, low drop out regulators, standard op-amp/comparators, and low voltage op-amp. The company’ products are used in computers and Internet hardware; telecommunications; networking and storage equipment; industrial power supply and instrumentation equipment; consumer electronics, such as digital cameras, displays, audio/video devices, and household appliances; and automotive applications. Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc. was founded in 1959 and is headquartered in San Jose, California.
