SAN JOSE, Calif. -- MaxLinear Inc., a provider of CMOS-based radio-frequency analog and mixed-signal semiconductors, announced that it has filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a proposed initial public offering of its Class A common stock.
The number of shares to be offered and the price range for the offering have not yet been determined.
Morgan Stanley & Co. Inc. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. are acting as book-running managers for the offering. UBS Securities LLC, Thomas Weisel Partners LLC and Needham & Company, LLC are acting as co-managers for the offering.
MaxLinear (Carlsbad, Calif.) was founded in 2003. Subsequently, in 2004, MaxLinear secured Series-A venture financing upon the completion of its first prototype silicon television tuner in CMOS technology.
In early 2007, MaxLinear marked another major milestone when started shipping the world's smallest silicon TV tuner.
Last month, MaxLinear announced the MxL301RF, a new low-power hybrid digital/analog silicon tuner for the next generation of small and large screen television applications.
The MxL301RF device offers low power consumption, consuming only 400 mW in contrast to competing tuners that can consume up to 1.5 watts each. Measuring 5-mm x 5-mm in a 32-pin QFN package, the MxL301RF is highly integrated, with built-in features such as a SAW filter function, LNAs, tracking and loop filters.
The MxL301RF supports major analog and digital TV standards. The MxL301RF is sampling now and will be available to ship in production to key customers in Q4/2009.
