E[acute accent]John comes to Anadigm(R) from Cypress Microsystems, where he was responsible for new product definition and new market expansion for the company's line of Programmable System on Chip (PSoC) devices. In his role as director of strategic marketing, he was instrumental in driving the company's success with this configurable solution for embedded control functions. Previously, he worked as a product marketing manager at Microchip Technology Inc. in the company's microcontroller and memory divisions. E[acute accent]"Nathan's experience in developing and implementing product strategies for high-growth programmable and analog components will play a key role in our drive to identify and penetrate high-volume opportunities for Anadigm(R) FPAAs," said William McLean, Anadigm(R) president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . "I am certain that his leadership in directing our marketing and positioning efforts will bring exciting new opportunities to the company."

The author of numerous articles and holder of two patents, John earned a Bachelor of Science Noun 1. Bachelor of Science - a bachelor's degree in science BS, SB bachelor's degree, baccalaureate - an academic degree conferred on someone who has successfully completed undergraduate studies degree in computer science from the University of California, San Diego UCSD is consistently ranked among the top ten public universities for undergraduate education in the United States by U.S. News & World Report.[3] It is a Public Ivy. [1] For graduate studies, most of UCSD's Ph.D. , and a Master of Business Administration degree from Arizona State University Arizona State University, at Tempe; coeducational; opened 1886 as a normal school, became 1925 Tempe State Teachers College, renamed 1945 Arizona State College at Tempe. Its present name was adopted in 1958. . E[acute accent]"FPAAs are a perfect match for the needs of many mixed-signal applications, and their broad market acceptance is evidence of the unique value proposition that programmable analog technology brings to users," John said. "I'm very excited to join the Anadigm(R) team with the objective of expanding the market for FPAA solutions." E[acute accent]John is based in Anadigm(R)'s Tempe office, reporting directly to McLean. E[acute accent]About Anadigm(R) E[acute accent]Anadigm(R) brings platform-based design to the analog world with pre-qualified software and hardware components that allow complex analog circuits to be implemented in an analog equivalent to the FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) A type of gate array that is programmed in the field rather than in a semiconductor fab. Containing up to hundreds of thousands of gates, there are a variety of FPGA architectures on the market. . Designed to implement signal conditioning, filtering, data acquisition, closed-loop control and other analog functions in a wide range of embedded systems, Anadigm(R) FPAAs are the first programmable analog ICs that can adapt on the fly to perform multiple functions, adjust to different environmental conditions, or compensate for equipment aging. Founded in January 2000 as a venture-backed technology spinoff from Motorola, Anadigm(R) maintains United States headquarters in Tempe, Ariz. and European headquarters in Crewe, United Kingdom.
