Zarlink Semiconductor has announced that its Microelectronics division
has won the ‘Fit To Win’ business development award as
part of the Welsh Development Agency’s Source Wales program.
Source Wales helps local businesses build supplier networks and
develop the skills and expertise necessary to work with local and
global manufacturers. Zarlink’s Microelectronics division,
located in Caldicot, South Wales, received the ‘Fit To Win’
award for promoting its SiP (System-in-Package) technology and foundry
expertise.
“The Welsh Development Agency partners with local companies
to help them identify opportunities, win more business, and operate
more competitively,” said Anthony Pritchard, business development
manager, Welsh Development Agency. “The Fit To Win award recognizes
that Zarlink’s Microelectronics staff is working hard to ensure
they’re in a position to win business by truly understanding
both the technology and business requirements of new and potential
customers.”
“Along with providing leading technology, developing a commercially
minded staff is key for success in the telecommunications industry,”
said Martin McHugh, business development manager, Zarlink Microelectronics.
“The Source Wales program has helped ensure our engineering
staff always considers the supply, delivery and support needs of
our customers.”

Zarlink’s SiP technology is a miniature circuit
board that mimics the appearance of silicon, but offers reduced
design time, lower development costs and smaller package size for
manufacturers. Engineers at Zarlink’s Caldicot facility are
also working on unique in-body antenna designs for Body Area Networks
as part of the European Union’s Healthy Aims Program.
