PROFILE |
 |
PMC-Sierra has reached lofty heights with its communications chips. PMC's high-end semiconductors drive telecommunications and optical networking gear at the heart of broadband networks; top customers include Cisco Systems and Nortel Networks. Its switches, mappers, multiplexers, and other chips handle various protocols, including Ethernet, voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM; PMC is the #1 ATM chip company in the world). PMC outsources manufacture to Asian foundries, though nearly 85% of sales come from North America. The company has built a reputation both for its award-winning management and for its acquisitive ways (it spent over $4 billion on acquisitions in 2000 alone).
