IC MANUFACTURERS

IC manufacturers with a name starting with 'B'

IC manufacturer by first letter of name:
0..9	A	B	C	D	E	F	G	H	I	J	K	L	M	N	O	P	Q	R	S	T	U	V	W	X	Y	Z

Notes:

Beware that a company may be listed under it's abbreviation ('IBM') but also under it's full name ('International Business Machines') so when you want to make sure, check both places.
These listings should cover about 99% of all chip manufacturers by now, so it will be very appreciated by me and 100,000's of your colleagues all over the world when you would email me about anything that should be changed or added.
