Rambus looks for major growth in India
Bangalore | February 15, 2006 12:30:59 PM IST
Rambus, a global leader in highspeed interface technology and advanced circuit designs, is ramping up its operations in India and aimed at emerging 100 strong by this year end.
''Our target is to double the strength to 200 in 2007 and cross 500 by the end of the decade,'' Rambus Chief Executive Officer Harold Hughes told UNI in an interview.
Mr Hughes, who was here to review the first year operations of Rambus which began with a headcount of mere five, said the company had over 50 engineers now.
Rambus joined the bandwagon of US chip designers who made a beeline to India, in March last year and never looked back. ''We are extremely happy with the talent pool available here,'' he said, adding that the company aimed at tapping the growing semiconductor design talent in the country and providing service to customers in Asia, mainly in Japan, through the Indian operations.

It would also increase capacity for carrying out highly complex designs in a competitive manner. The Indian design centre was currently working on assignments for Sony, Toshiba, IBM and AMD, he added.
Stating that Rambus India was chartered to play a significant role in the overall operations of the Company, Mr Hughes said the Indian Centre enjoyed the same status as the US operations.
Rambus, founded in 1990, had been addressing the rapidly growing problem of memory transfer data rates. It had developed highly scalable, high bandwidth chip connection technology and a revenue base of over 130 million US Dollars.
The technology licensing business model had enabled its small team of highly talented professionals to produce the best work without any constraint and cost structure of an internal manufacturing entity, he added. The core business was focused on high speed IO interfaces, both proprietary interfaces like XDR, flex10 and industry standards such as DDR and PCI-express.
He said Rambus engineers had developed numerous innovations, resulting in over 850 issued and pending patents worldwide in areas such as logic and memory interfaces, memory architecture, and system design.
To a question, he said the company wanted to achieve growth both organically and inorganically and it was looking at some technology companies in the US for acquisition.
