Intersil Corporation and German Tech Magazine Elektronik Praxis Launch Wikitronic™
Industry’s First German-Language Semiconductor Wiki Will Debut at Electronica 2008, November 11-14 in Munich
ELECTRONICA, Munich, November 13, 2008 – Intersil Corporation (NASDAQ Global Select: ISIL), a world leader in the design and manufacture of high-performance analog semiconductors, and Elektronik Praxis, today announced the launching of Wikitronic™ the first German-language wiki specifically focusing on semiconductors. The wiki, which was developed jointly by the two companies, will be on display at both the Intersil and Elektronik Praxis booths at Electronica 2008.
Wikitronic™ will be available through the Elektronik Praxis website and at www.wikitronic.de Wikis are web pages or websites that allow internet users to supply and edit content.
“Elektronik Praxis is proud to provide this service to design engineers and students,” said Johann Wiesböck, Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of Elektronik Praxis. “The way people and engineers are sharing information is rapidly changing, and Praxis is not only facilitating this change, but will remain a vital link throughout this evolution.”
Wikitronic™ is only a part of Intersil’s plan to find new and creative ways of partnering with the global analog community, helping students and engineers solve their design problems.
“German-speaking analog engineers will now have a self-healing, continually improving forum to share information and ideas,” said David Loftus, Intersil’s Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Marketing. “Although Intersil has sponsored and helped develop the initial content, from this point forward the content will be completely maintained by its users.”
