That deal followed a year during which Microsemi, which develops chips for the aerospace and defense as well as communications and data center markets, reported record full year revenues of $1.8 billion. It also launched its DIGI-G5 OTN processor, which delivers 1.2 Tbit/s of combined OTN and client interfaces and was early to market with a range of Ethernet products for the 25 GigE, 50 GigE, 200 GigE and 400 GigE markets. The company has also had success with its PolarFire FPGA in the comms, IoT and industrial sectors, and launched the AcuEdge Development Kit to bring Amazon Alexa voice services to the IoT market.
