The board-level appointment is the first Milne — co-founder of Wolfson Microelectronics — has accepted since stepping down as CEO to a non-executive role within Wolfson Microelectronics in 2007.
He helped take Wolfson from a university spinout to be one of the fastest growing companies in the FTSE 250.
Earlier this year Milne invested in Elonics as part of the company's series A funding round.
The appointment comes just ahead of the launch of Elonics first standard product, the E4000 CMOS radio frequency tuner, which uses a proprietary technology called dubbed DigitalTune, the foundation for a family of re-configurable CMOS RF front end products from Elonics.
Elonics CEO, David Srodzinski said : "It is a tremendous asset for Elonics to have David Milne as Chairman. His appointment was unanimously approved by the Board and we were delighted when he accepted. David comes with a wealth of hands-on experience, understanding both the high volume semiconductor business and how to build a company to address it. As well as recognizing the commercial potential for Elonics technology, he understands what is required to help expand Elonics to fully capitalize on its global opportunities."
