ICsense, specialist in mixed-signal and high-voltage semiconductor design, has appointed Raoul Daniels as Director Marketing and Sales. Raoul has a wealth of knowledge, accumulated over 25 years, on Semiconductor Marketing within the Medical, Industrial, Automotive and Consumer Industry. Previously working for MIPS/Chipidea where his last position was to be the Site Manager and Marketing Director for the Analog ASIC product line, he also held Strategic Marketing responsibility for the Low-Power and Wireless Semiconductor Products at AMIS, ON Semi and Texas Instruments. With his appointment, ICsense wants to further strengthen its market position as the number one IC design house for power management, sensor interfaces and high-voltage ASICs. Raoul will take ICsense to the next level of internationalization of its expertise and services. His vast network will help to achieve these goals in the foreseeable future. Raoul has started at ICsense on the 2nd of February.

To further enhance its services in high-end electronics and high-accuracy integrated temperature sensors, ICsense has purchased a precision temperature forcing system (PTFS): the Thermonics T-2800. The purchase of the temperature forcing equipment enables ICsense to provide the full development path up to tested prototypes for automotive ICs and ASICs and for high-accuracy temperature sensors. Like all the measurement equipment in the ICsense lab, the thermostreamer can be remotely controlled and can be embedded in automated measurement setups. The thermostreamer has already been used in several prototype verifications for Hall sensor interfaces, industrial sensor interface applications, RFID and implanted medical devices.
