Avago Technologies US, Inc.
Avago Technologies combines the capabilities and track record of an established global leader with the vigor and responsiveness of a startup.
As a leading supplier of analog interface components for communications, industrial and consumer applications, Avago Technologies began as HP's components division back in the 60s—and thrived there for three decades. When HP spun off Agilent Technologies in 1999, the components group became Agilent's Semiconductor Products Group (SPG): expanding into new markets and applications with products that would help revolutionize global communications. Then in late 2005, Kohlberg, Kravis Roberts & Co. (KKR) and Silver Lake Partners acquired SPG and launched the new company as Avago Technologies.
