Whazzup.... - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Silicon Laboratories Reports Ten Percent Revenue Growth in the First Quarter

AUSTIN, Texas – April 25, 2005 – Silicon Laboratories Inc. (Nasdaq: SLAB), a leader in high performance, analog-intensive, mixed-signal ICs, today reported revenues of $105 million for the first quarter of 2005, a ten percent increase over the fourth quarter. First quarter fully diluted GAAP earnings per share increased 29 percent sequentially to $0.31. The company also announced that Daniel Artusi has resigned as president and chief executive officer and from the board of directors to pursue other interests. Nav Sooch, chairman of the board of directors, was named as interim chief executive officer.

Motley Fool doesn't know why but something is definitely up. Not too good when the head honcho hits the silk.

too bad and notice that a lot of RF CMOS companies are going down the tubes - from start ups to larger ones.

people are realizing what academic types don't want to admit -- CMOS sucks for RF IC's!

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
