Applied Micro Circuits Corp was incorporated and commenced operations in California in 1979 and was reincorporated in Delaware in 1987. The Company is engaged in providing silicon solutions for next-generation cloud infrastructure and data centers, as well as connectivity products for edge, metro and long haul communications equipment. Its products include the X-Gene ARM 64-bit Server on a Chip solution, or X-Gene. The X-Gene family of products targets existing and emerging hyperscale cloud, scientific and high-performance computing and enterprise applications. It also offers embedded computing products based on Power Architecture, sometimes referred to as PowerPC products. The Company's HeliX family of embedded products is based on the ARM Instruction Set Architecture. The Company's embedded processor products are deployed in applications such as control- and data-plane management, wireless access points, residential gateways, wireless base stations, storage controllers, network attached storage, network switches and routing products, and multi-function printers. The Company's connectivity portion provides high-speed, high-bandwidth, high-reliability communications products. Its connectivity products include devices for Optical Transport Network (OTN) equipment and physical layer (PHY) devices that transmit and receive signals in a very high speed serial format. Its embedded computing products are deployed in applications in markets such as control- and data-plane functionality, wireless access points, residential gateways, wireless base-stations, storage controllers, network attached storage, network switches and routing products, and multi-function printers. The Company holds approximately 348 issued patents which cover aspects of the design and architecture of its integrated circuit ("IC") and enterprise storage products. The Company's registered trademarks include AppliedMicro, AMCC, APM, X-Gene, Server on a Chip, Cloud Server, OTNsec, Arming the Cloud and Hard Silicon, among others. It is subject to a variety of federal, state and local governmental regulations related to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of toxic, volatile or otherwise hazardous chemicals that were used in its manufacturing process.
