Read more about this great combination...
Picochip pioneered the concept of femtocells and small cells, and has been the clear leader in this field. We are very proud of what we have achieved and the extent that these technologies are changing the wireless technology landscape.

The combination of Mindspeed and Picochip creates the clear market leader in small cell basestation solutions for next generation mobile broadband communications infrastructure.

There are powerful market synergies: both companies are focussed on communications infrastructure, and we share a vision for small cells and how they will transform the industry. There are technology synergies too, as we combine Picochip's technology with the Transcede® range of high-performance baseband processors, and Mindspeed's wider portfolio. Together we will have one of the largest and most experienced engineering teams in the industry, with the resources and expertise to deliver the solutions that this fast-moving market demands.

The combined wireless group will have the strongest portfolio in the industry, with solutions for WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, LTE FDD and TD-LTE, and scaling from the most cost-effective residential solutions to the highest performing solutions for metro-cells.

These are exciting times for everyone in wireless. Picochip has achieved great things over the last ten years, and the combination of Picochip and Mindspeed will achieve significantly more.
