Sunnyvale, California, April 30, 2012 – SiTime, an analog semiconductor company revolutionizing the $6 billion timing solutions market with its silicon MEMS solutions, announced that cumulative shipments of its MEMS oscillator, clock generator, and resonator devices have surpassed 100 million units. More than 800 electronics companies are adopting SiTime's silicon MEMS timing solutions for over 100 applications.
Rajesh Vashist, CEO of SiTime, stated, “SiTime’s unique MEMS and analog technologies are revolutionizing the long-standing field of timing by introducing innovative products that deliver unprecedented performance, flexibility, and reliability. Our silicon-based technology has enabled revolutionary performance improvements that the crystal oscillator industry cannot match. Our current products offer 250 times better stability and jitter performance compared to the products first introduced in 2007. We will continue to innovate at this pace. Furthermore, SiTime’s MEMS timing products are up to 500 times more reliable than crystal oscillators. Today, almost all major electronics companies are either launching products featuring our MEMS solutions or considering adopting them in their own products, and it is only a matter of time before the MEMS oscillator market surpasses that of traditional crystal oscillators.”
Mark Sherwood, Senior Analyst for Semiconductor Timing Solutions at CS&A, stated, “SiTime is playing a leading role in the timing industry’s transition to MEMS-based products. According to our company’s research, SiTime was among the top 10 oscillator vendors in fiscal year 2011.” “Over the past six months, SiTime has launched new precision and ultra-precision timing products that not only achieve 0.5 PPM TCXO performance across industrial temperature ranges but also achieve femtosecond-range low RMS integral phase noise and jitter performance. These new products will further accelerate electronics companies’ adoption of silicon MEMS timing solutions instead of quartz crystal oscillators,” ( www.timing-is-everything.net ).
