Company Adds Low-Power 2.4 GHz Wireless Mesh Networking Technology
Silicon Laboratories Inc. announced its complete acquisition of Ember Corporation. This strategic acquisition brings Silicon Labs the technology and software expertise required to enable the low-power mesh sensor networks that are being deployed today in a wide range of residential, commercial and industrial applications.
The Ember portfolio complements Silicon Labs products, and the combination brings together microcontroller (MCU), power and isolation technology, sensors, and both sub-GHz and 2.4 GHz wireless radios into a comprehensive portfolio of highly integrated solutions for embedded systems. Ember is expected to contribute approximately $10-$12 million in revenue in the second half of 2012 and to be accretive on a non-GAAP basis in 2013.
