意法半導體(ST)長期以來一直是中國半導體市場的領導者,上個世紀80年代中期,意法半導體在北京設立了第一個辦事處,成為第一批在中國設立營業機構的半導體公司之一。從那時起,意法半導體在中國逐步建確立了完整產業鏈的戰略部署,不僅設立了非常成功的市場銷售部門,還建立了重要的生產制造基地,同時積極開展滿足中國本地需求的設計和研發活動。今天,意法半導體大中國區共有員工4200余人,其中1000多名專門從事設計、技術支持和市場銷售工作。自1999年起,意法半導體在中國這個潛力巨大的市場中成績斐然,銷售額得到了穩步增長,公司年復合增長率高達31%,而中國半導體行業的年復合增長率為24%,相比同期全球半導體行業年復合增長率為7%。中國市場預計在五年內將占有全球半導體市場份額的五分之一。在多媒體、數字消費電子、通信和工業應用方面,意法半導體實力雄厚,非常符合中國市場的需求。
由于解決方案本地化對于中國消費者變得日益重要,ST在北京、上海、深圳建立了多家技術資格中心,針對數字消費多媒體、影像、顯示、無線、網絡和智能卡等各種應用,配備了從事參考解決方案的設計開發、技術支持及合作開發項目的各類專業技術工程師。這幾家技術資格中心補充了ST在世界其它地區的現有技術資格中心的實力,使公司能夠調配其全球資源和各種先進技術,以滿足中國市場的特殊本地需求。
為進一步承諾并服務于中國市場,公司于2005年在中國創立了全新的大中國區,該地區機構負責中國大陸、香港和臺灣三地的業務,并任命一名公司副總裁專門管理這個組織機構。大中國區的成立是ST為在這個經濟增長最快的地區繼續取得成功而邁出的關鍵一步。
EXPRESS主要介紹ST的最新產品及應用方案。目前可以訂閱2006年第二季度刊物,訂閱代碼為:EXPRESS74。

ST Journal Publisher' words
Several years ago, when we decided to create this journal, we had a clear vision.
We didn't want a "look-mom-how-good-we-are" magazine; we didn't want an advertising tool; we didn't want an academic exercise. We wanted to fulfill a dream we had had since the founding of Advanced System Technology: to develop world-class knowledge and share it inside and outside of STMicroelectronics, hoping to attract even further contributions from partners, institutions, academia. This journal is a first effort in this direction.
As with any newborn, ours is still largely unprepared for the expectations that we, his parents, have for him. It is, however, willing to learn, to grow fast, and to outperform even the highest expectations. Because no one can grow or learn alone, we are counting on all of you to criticize, correct, and contribute. A learning journey requires teachers and friends, and these are what we ask all of you to be. Our success is also yours, and we want to offer and develop a forum where new ideas are exposed, exchanged, and challenged.
