Company Description:  M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. (M/A-COM Tech) is a leading supplier of semiconductors, active and passive components, and sub-assemblies for use in radio frequency (RF), microwave and millimeter wave applications. We have years of expertise in solving complex circuit design, packaging and manufacturing challenges. Over this time, M/A-COM Tech has earned its stellar reputation by providing solutions to a broad range of complex RF and microwave challenges faced by top OEMs and systems integrators. M/A-COM Tech was incorporated in September 2008, in connection with a transition of ownership from Tyco Electronics to Cobham. However, our heritage of RF industry leadership dates back to the founding of Microwave Associates in 1950. While ownership of the brand and related product lines has changed hands a number of times over this long and rich history, the unique combination of technical expertise, reliability and customer service that characterizes M/A-COM Tech today has remained constant.

Markets:  M/A-COM Tech is the partner of choice in a variety of markets—including cellular base stations and infrastructure, military communications, avionics, radar, medical equipment, point-to-point and broadband radios, and broadcast equipment.

Design and Manufacturing Facilities:  M/A-COM Tech has design, Si and GaAs fabrication, manufacturing, assembly and test, and operational facilities in a number of geographies. We operate ISO-9001 facilities in Lowell, Massachusetts; Torrance, California; Edison, New Jersey; Cork, Ireland and Shenzhen, China. View all M/A-COM Technology Solutions facilities here.
