“We have always believed that MEMS has a place. Rakon is a global frequency control solutions provider, offering a complete and diversified product portfolio into multiple high growth markets. The addition of MEMS technology into our portfolio complements the existing range and enables us to further fulfil customer requirements within new and existing markets that are synergistic with Rakon’s value proposition” he said.
The addition of MEMS products supports Rakon’s growth in telecommunications, smart wireless devices and high reliability markets, as well as fuel growth in networking, storage, servers, portable electronics, consumer and computing applications.
Rakon’s Sales & Marketing Director, Darren Robinson says the decision was initially driven by responding to key customer demands.
“The next generation of our customers’ applications will continue to require the performance and cost that only quartz crystals can deliver, but there are applications well served by the unique attributes of MEMS. Rakon is renowned as a technology leader so offering both crystal and MEMS products enables Rakon to advise our customers, without bias, the best solutions that address the requirements of their specific applications.”
