NEW GUY:

Mr. DeSimone was most recently Senior Manager, Test and Wafer Sort Engineering, at Fairchild Semiconductor. Under his leadership, the Fairchild team achieved significant increases in quality and yield during wafer production in several 0.5 and 0.35 micron CMOS/BiCMOS/BiPolar technologies. In addition to manufacturing experience, Mr DeSimone brings to the Company two distinct experiences:

• strategic product roadmap definition - addressing server and storage vertical markets; and
• broad integrated circuit development encompassing analog mixed signal through large digital application specific integrated circuits.
