CML Microcircuits (UK) Ltd is a British-based manufacturer of semiconductor based system solutions. Today, CML is part of the CML Microsystems Group PLC, who operate through subsidiaries located in the UK, the United States, Germany and Singapore. The company (CML Microcircuits (UK) Ltd) predominantly designs, manufactures and markets a range of semiconductors (integrated circuits or IC’s) for industrial, professional and consumer applications within the wireless communications storage, wireline communications and networking market areas. Headquartered in Maldon, Essex, CML employs approximately 170 personnel worldwide. The company operates a 'fabless' semiconductor model (outsources silicon wafer fabrication) and performs IC assembly and test functions at facilities in the UK and through subcontractors around the globe. CML operates sales and technical support offices in Essex, and is supported by a global network of distributors and manufacturer's representatives. ==History== CML Microcircuits is believed to be the oldest fabless semiconductor company in the UK.〔http://www.epn-online.com/page/new120196/with-mike-gurry-managing-director-cml-microcircuits.html〕 Formed in December 1968, CML was created by George Gurry from a frequency detection switch company. The idea was to create single chip solutions rather than a ‘box' using several standard components. It was called Consumer Microcircuits Ltd then and it originally focused on possible supply of remote controls to the toy industry. Everyone came to know the company as CML so in 2002 the company was re-branded as CML Microcircuits. The offices were in London's Old Street until 1971 when the company moved to Essex and to the current location in Langford, Essex in 1999. CML now provide solutions for the communications market rather than focus on the consumer/toy market. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「CML Microcircuits」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
