ClariPhy Communications Doubles Design Capabilities, Establishes Development Center in Argentina; Untapped Pool of Engineering Talent and the Development Team's Proven Execution are Key Drivers.IRVINE, Calif. -- ClariPhy Communications, Inc., a fabless semiconductor company A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices implemented on semiconductor chips. It achieves an advantage by outsourcing the fabrication of the devices to a specialized semiconductor manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry or "fab. specializing in high speed communications ICs, announced today that it has completed the incorporation of its Argentinean development center near the National University of Cordoba cor·do·ba n. See Table at currency. [American Spanish córdoba, after Francisco Fernández de Córdoba (1475?-1526?), Spanish explorer.] Noun 1. . The development center doubles ClariPhy's design capabilities and accelerates development of 10Gbit/s mixed signal and other high speed integrated circuits Integrated circuits Miniature electronic circuits produced within and upon a single semiconductor crystal, usually silicon. Integrated circuits range in complexity from simple logic circuits and amplifiers, about 1/20 in. (1. (IC). "ClariPhy is built on world-class engineering talent. The team assembled in Argentina has made a significant contribution to the development of our first product, a 10Gbit/s physical layer device (PHY See physical layer and physical. ) for use on installed multi-mode fiber See multimode fiber. networks," said Dr. Paul Voois, 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. of ClariPhy. "Based on its history of execution and on the exceptional engineering talent in Cordoba, I am confident that our team there will continue to play a key role in ClariPhy's success." Known as the Silicon Valley of Argentina, Cordoba is the site of development centers for several Fortune 500 companies. The National University, with over one hundred thousand students, is a relatively untapped pool for engineering talent. Additionally, Argentina has only a four hour time difference with Pacific Daylight Time, compared with 12.5 hours for India and 15 hours for China greatly improving overall collaboration and communication. "Being an Argentinean native and having sponsored the establishment of ClariPhy's subsidiary, I am very pleased to formally welcome the team as ClariPhy Argentina," stated Dr. Oscar Agazzi, Vice President and Chief Systems Architect and President and CEO of ClariPhy Argentina S.A. "This is an exciting opportunity to work on some of the most advanced technologies in the communications industry communications industry, broadly defined, the business of conveying information. Although communication by means of symbols and gestures dates to the beginning of human history, the term generally refers to mass communications. . ClariPhy's commitment to establishing a world class development center in Argentina is as progressive as the products we are delivering." About ClariPhy ClariPhy Communications, Inc. is a fabless semiconductor company that was founded in 2002 and is based in Irvine, California.
