ADI announced last year that it had reached a final agreement on the merger with Maxim Integrated, and this acquisition was also ADI's largest transaction.
This acquisition has played an extremely important role in ADI's global layout and will help consolidate ADI's position as a leader in analog semiconductors. Maxim's strength in the automotive and data center markets, combined with ADI's strength in a wide range of industrial, communications and digital medical markets, is highly complementary and consistent with major long-term growth trends.
From 1990 to 2019, ADI has been advancing all the way from obscurity to the second place in the global analog chip market today. It has to be mentioned that ADI's "widening the net" operation.
In July 2014, ADI began to develop the communications field and acquired Hittite Microwave Corp, a leader in radio frequency technology. Hittite is an innovative design company and manufacturer in the fields of RF, microwave and millimeter wave applications of high-performance integrated circuits, modules, subsystems, and meters.
In 2016, ADI began to develop the field of Internet of Things, and successively acquired three companies, SNAP Sensor SA, Innovasic, and Sypris Electronics LLC, to improve its Internet of Things technology.
In the automotive field, ADI has made a big deal. In 2016, ADI spent $14.8 billion to acquire the power giant Linear. This transaction caused a lot of turbulence in 2016 and even the entire semiconductor industry. Since then, ADI has created "the world's premier leading analog technology company."
In November 2016, ADI announced the acquisition of solid-state laser beam control technology from Vescent Photonics Inc. This acquisition consolidated ADI’s position as a major automotive safety system technology partner for next-generation ADAS and autonomous driving applications.
Finally, ADI's biggest business direction in recent years is the industrial field. In 2018, ADI successfully acquired OtoSense.OtoSense and began to study automatic voice recognition technology, which helps to find potential problems in factory machines or car engines.
In October 2019, ADI announced the acquisition of Test Motors, a company specializing in predictive maintenance of motors and generators. The acquisition expands the ADI condition monitoring solution portfolio, enabling the identification of equipment failures before downtime and catastrophic failures occur.
It can be said that ADI's success is achieved step by step through acquisition.
According to IC Insights data, ADI is the world's second largest analog IC supplier in 2019, second only to the largest manufacturer TI (Texas Instruments). ADI's successful acquisition of Maxim this time, ADI's share in the analog IC market is expected to increase to 15%, further narrowing the gap with TI, resulting in an effect of 1+1>2. As for the domestic analog chip companies that are replacing domestically, there will be a giant rival that can rival TI, especially in the automotive and industrial fields, making substitution more difficult.
