Seeking a one-stop shopping point for its clients, Rockwell International Corp.’s Semiconductor Systems unit is consolidating its high-speed communications chip business into a new division. The Network Access Division will focus on the company’s proprietary 56-kilobits-per-second modem chips and other products in the computer and telecommunications networking arena.
The new Network Access Division, with about 200 employees, combines Rockwell Semiconductor’s Newport Beach-based modem business with the high-speed digital communications portion of its San Diego-based Brooktree communications products and software unit, which it acquired in September.
Raouf Halim, formerly vice president of Rockwell Semiconductor’s large-scale chip-engineering projects, will be general manager of the Network Access Division.
