Zap, you're dead - The Antenna - Semitron's circuit protection business acquired by Littlefuse - Brief Article

Electronic News, July 29, 2002

IT'S ENOUGH TO MAKE YOUR HAIR STAND ON END. AND WHILE static may be great for sticking balloons on the ceiling, it creates a nightmare in small ICs. Littlefuse, which makes voltage protection components, last week bought Semitron's circuit protection business in hopes of capitalizing on what it expects will become an increasing problem as the march toward miniaturization continues.

The purchase price was not disclosed, but there apparently wasn't much static over the deal.
