Product Details & Size Guide
Show your appreciation for the history behind communications technology with this Agere Systems hoodie or sweatshirt. Agere was incorporated in 2000 as a Lucent Technologies subsidiary, spun off as an independent company in 2002, and merged into LSI in 2007. Its home base in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and international footprint add depth to a story that connects people, places, and the semiconductor industry. A comfortable everyday choice for technology collectors and fans of early-2000s company history.
Agere Systems, Inc. was an integrated circuit components company headquartered in Allentown, Pennsylvania. It was incorporated on August 1, 2000, as a subsidiary of Lucent Technologies. Lucent spun Agere off as an independent company on June 1, 2002. The Agere name came from a Texas-based electronics company that Lucent acquired in 2000; the two company names had different pronunciations. Agere is a Latin verb meaning “to act,” “to do,” or “to make.” In addition to its main office and other sites in Pennsylvania, Agere maintained offices and manufacturing facilities in Florida, Texas, and California. Its international presence included India, Israel, China, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and Spain. In 2007, Agere merged into LSI Corporation. Avago Technologies acquired LSI in 2014. In early 2016, Avago acquired the former Broadcom Corporation and adopted the Broadcom Inc. name. Agere’s corporate history therefore connects a Lucent spin-off to a succession of later companies in the semiconductor and communications technology industry.
