Peregrine Semiconductor Corp of San Diego, CA, USA – a fabless provider of radio-frequency integrated circuits (RFICs) based on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) – says that its UK team has moved into a larger office at 1420 Arlington Business Park in Theale, Berkshire (in the heart of the Thames Valley). The new 4600ft2 office quadruples the working area and laboratory space (including two fully equipped labs) to better accommodate the UK team's 90% growth since Peregrine's acquisition by Japan's Murata in December 2014.
"Our team had outgrown our old facility — both in seating capacity and in lab space to accommodate new product development," says Mark Moffat, managing director of Peregrine Semiconductor Europe. "Our new home not only better suits our current team, but it has the capacity for our projected growth," he adds. "With a prime location in the Thames Valley, we are able to tap into the abundance of talent in this region and build a team that is driving Peregrine's growth in areas like 5G and power management."
In addition to the UK office, Peregrine has offices in Arlington Heights, Illinois; Seongnam-si, South Korea; and Shanghai, China.
