SUNNYVALE, Calif., Nov 5, 2009 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- MXIM | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Maxim Integrated Products (Nasdaq:MXIM) announces that they have reached a definitive agreement with Intelleflex, a leader in extended capability RFID, that has resulted in the transfer of a Maxim engineering team, a body of design works, and related IP to Intelleflex. In return Maxim will receive an equity position in Intelleflex. In addition, Maxim and Intelleflex will partner on certain go-to-market activities in the future.
