SAN JOSE, CA, Sep 13, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- MCRL | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Micrel Inc., (NASDAQ: MCRL), an industry leader in analog, high bandwidth communications, and Ethernet IC solutions, announced today a partnership agreement with Multigig Inc., a fabless semiconductor company providing advanced next generation clock and timing ICs for communication markets. The agreement enables Micrel to augment its growing family of high performance clock solutions, and offer ultra-low jitter Clock Synthesizers and Jitter Attenuators based on Multigig's RotaryWave(TM) technology. These products are well suited for high speed wireline and wireless communication applications with stringent phase noise requirement. The products will be available beginning in the fourth quarter, 2009.

"The addition of Multigig's high performance Clock Synthesizers and Jitter Attenuator products complement Micrel's high-end Precision Edge clock product portfolio very nicely. These products are the highest performance available on the market today, with jitter in the sub-100 femtosecond range, ultra-low power consumption, and excellent Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)," noted Rami Kanama, director, high bandwidth products, Micrel. "The performance of these key products will have significant benefits for the most stringent communications and networking applications, such as SONET/SDH OC-192 and OC-768, 8G and 16G Fibre Channel, 10GbE, and even upcoming 40G and 100G Ethernet."

"Multigig is delighted to be partnering with Micrel on this product family. Micrel's existing customer base and product lines combined with their excellent reputation for reliability and customer service provide an ideal complement for these leading edge RotaryWave(TM) based products," said Haris Basit, Founder and Chief Strategy Officer of Multigig.

The new line of PLL-based Clock Synthesizer products is designed to take a low frequency crystal input and produce very low jitter high frequency differential or single-ended outputs, with frequency up to 850MHz. It offers a broad range of output types including LVCMOS, LVPECL, LVDS, and HCSL. In addition, each output is independently configurable and enabled. With hundreds of configurations available in both MLF(R) and TSSOP package options, the lead-free solutions operate at -40C to +85C and are targeted at datacom, telecom networking, storage applications, PCI Express, and broadcast video.
