Company Description
The company started in 1994 under the name Gran-Jansen AS to develop a cost-effective integrated solution for local wireless signalling. Through a joint venture with the Norwegian PTT R&D Centre ‘Telenor’, the company released the world’s first single-chip frequency hopping spread spectrum transceiver IC in 1997.
In 2000 Gran-Jansen AS formally changed its name to BlueChip Communication AS to better reflect the line of products and geographical scope. BlueChip Communication AS was acquired March 2004 by Micrel Semiconductor Inc, San Jose, California, USA. Micrel Norway SA is today a fabless semiconductor company covering all areas from silicon design to application engineering and design-in aid. Our vision is to make Local Wireless Networking solutions adapted to the emerging M2M (machine-to-machine) market. Costs, size, integrity and power consumption are the key guidelines for product marketing and development. Extensive development support is emphasized to shorten time to market for the end user.
