Fairchild competed with several other major mobile suppliers on the initial MUS request 4 years ago. Fairchild was able to win the initial phone sockets due to shortest time to market and strong applications support. Since the first design win over 3 years ago, Fairchild has continued to support the MUS technology at Samsung with new product revisions, strong applications and supply chain management support. Now Fairchild had the majority share (>90%) of MUS products and is positioned as the IP leader in this space at Samsung.
