Maxim Integrated (→ WikiData), founded in 1983, designs and manufactures analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits.
The company is headquartered in San Jose, California, and has design centers, manufacturing facilities, and sales offices worldwide.
In 1994, Tektronix sold its internal IC fab (called the Integrated Circuits Operation, ICO) to Maxim while keeping it located on the Beaverton campus. This deal provided Maxim with its first own fabrication facility and important bipolar design expertise, and Tektronix with better utilization of the fab.
On August 26, 2021, the company was acquired by Analog Devices.

There was some friction between Maxim and Tektronix as Maxim was bound by contract to supply legacy parts. Eventually (about 1997) the Tektronix processes went out of production.
