Littelfuse Picks University Research Park Site for New Tech Center
Access to University of Illinois resources will foster collaboration and expand new product development
efforts.
DES PLAINES, Illinois - September 22, 2009 - Littelfuse, Inc., a global leader in circuit
protection products and solutions, will create a new Technical Center at a state-of-the-art research park
located on the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign campus. Scheduled for completion by March 2010, the
14,500-square-foot facility will accelerate Littelfuse's product development efforts and support customers'
product testing requirements.
"The new technical center, which will include a High Power Test Lab, will
be relocated from our Des Plaines, Illinois, facility. It reflects Littelfuse's continuing focus on research and
development," said Dan Stanek, Director of Business Development. "Our presence at the research park will allow
Littelfuse to leverage the skills and knowledge of faculty and students, as well as gain direct access to
University resources," added Stanek.
Littelfuse's global lab capabilities include overcurrent and
overvoltage testing, as well as material analysis and reliability testing. These in-house capabilities
accelerate new product development efforts and ensure performance and regulatory compliance of customer designs.
As part of the transition, the POWR-GARD® engineering team will move from the company's Arcola, Illinois,
facility to the Research Park.
"Establishment of a technical center linked to a top-tier university supports Littelfuse's mission to
maintain our leadership position in the circuit protection industry," said Gordon Hunter, Chairman, President
and Chief Executive Officer.
Ranked among the top five electrical engineering schools in the nation, the
University of Illinois established the Research Park 10 years ago to attract high-tech companies as residents
and encourage university-industry collaboration. The Research Park is now home to 66 companies, including
Qualcomm, Caterpillar, Yahoo, Abbott Laboratories and John Deere.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
