If You Had Been Reading Semiconductor Times in June, 1997 . . .

(Yes, 1997 is really dated, but you get the idea...if you want it first, come to us -- we still deliver.)

        Last June, Semiconductor Times profiled an unknown company called Silicon Labs. The business was started in late 1996. But Semiconductor Times had been in touch with the company’s dynamic founders for more than a decade — beginning when they were senior engineering managers at Crystal Semiconductor. Although Silicon Labs wouldn’t reveal specifics of the chips it had in development last June, the steady stream of highly successful products the principals had created for Crystal, Bell Labs, Analog Devices, and Cirrus Logic compelled Semiconductor Times to bring Silicon Labs to the attention of our readership. As we put in: "Keep this one in your tickler file."
        Fast-forward to late March, 1998. Silicon Labs’ product announcement has just hit the pages of the traditional industry publications. And, as Semiconductor Times had predicted nine months earlier, the company has brought a hot product to market — its Si3032 silicon DAA chipset. But by now, of course, the horse is out of the barn, and the best opportunities for reps, venture capitalists, suppliers, and potential partners have probably been snapped up.
        But had you kept Silicon Labs in your "tickler file," as we had suggested, you could have jumped on this exploding company while the bandwagon was full of empty seats.
        This is the kind of reliable, inside, advance information that creates huge profit opportunities. And you don’t have to search, dig, hunt, or waste time to find them. Just open up Semiconductor Times.
