MaxLinear is a global, New York Stock Exchange-traded company (NYSE: MXL) where the entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well. MaxLinear is a fabless system-on-chip product company, designing highly integrated, radio-frequency, and mixed-signal Communications ICs for broadband and infrastructure applications.
MaxLinear began by developing the World’s first high-performance TV tuner chip using standard CMOS process technology. Others said MaxLinear couldn’t achieve the extremely high performance requirements using CMOS, but MaxLinear proved them wrong and achieved enduring global market leadership with our designs. Since then, MaxLinear has developed a full line of products for satellite communications, cable modems, and terrestrial TV; diversified into high speed products addressing Datacom applications such as 400 Gbps fiber-optic interconnect chips for high-speed networks; and MoCA technology for home networking.
