"MEMS: SiTime lands MEMS design wins"

SiTime Corp. announced at the Globalpress Electronics Summit that it had new MEMS oscillator design wins from three unidentified customers, including one order for 1 million units. All three of the companies make consumer electronics devices, including cellphones. The oscillators will allow the customers to shrink their devices by eliminating bulky quartz crystals from their pc-boards. When SiTime (Sunnyvale, Calif.) adds quartz crystal makers like Micro Crystal (Grenchen, Switzerland) to its customer list, it will boast orders for over 50 million MEMS oscillators.
