 Rabbit Semiconductor
is located in Davis, California, ideally located just 15 miles west of
Sacramento and halfway between San Francisco and Lake Tahoe. Whether your
interest is snow skiing (Lake Tahoe), year round sailing (San Francisco
Bay Area), or hanging out at Fry’s Electronics  (Sacramento),
Davis is the ultimate place to live and work. The local foothills offer
a variety of both summer and winter outdoor activities.
Davis has a small town friendliness. Residents are afforded a rich tapestry
of entertainment, arts and cultural events. Community theatrical productions
and university-sponsored appearances by internationally recognized speakers
and performing ensembles are frequently occur. Davis is the home to art
aficionados and artists. A community-built art center offers classes in
art, dance and crafts, and showcases visual arts at two dozen private
and public galleries in town.
There is an abundance of bookshops, coffeehouses, and restaurants catering
to the community in a vibrant and bustling downtown. The city has long
recognized the importance of open space, and programs for youth. Over
20 city parks, extensive recreational programming, swimming pools, greenbelts
and open space, and playing fields are available to Davis residents and
their families.
While quality of life is important, the
cost of living in major cities is also a concern. People quickly discover
that the cost of living in Davis is quite affordable, and for comparison,
is 30% cheaper than areas in the Silicon Valley of Northern California.
Davis provides the wealth and prosperity of a large city with a small
town atmosphere.

Customer Service
The Customer Service Department is the front line at Rabbit Semiconductor, assisting
customers with pricing, delivery, and shipment questions, and providing
valuable support to the sales staff. Each CS representative is cross-trained
to handle sales orders and quotations for both US and International customers.
Return of materials for repair or exchange are given the sign of approval
by the Customer Service Department, which then follows up with a resolution.
Coordination, completion, and follow-up of all Supplier Quality surveys
by the Customer Service Representatives is a key ingredient to Rabbit Semiconductor
shipping quality products to customers.
Sales
Rabbit Semiconductor sales personnel come from diverse sales backgrounds, each bringing
characteristics key to making them a productive sales team. Each team
member shares the desire to learn the technical details of the products,
and enjoys the satisfaction of fitting customers with the perfect control
solution. The sales department works closely with both customers and other
Rabbit Semiconductor departments. In fact, cross-departmental interaction is a requirement
of every Rabbit Semiconductor sales member to ensure that the needs of every customer
are met.
Marketing
The Rabbit Semiconductor Marketing Group gets involved in a variety of marketing projects
designed to effectively inform the controls market about Rabbit Semiconductor products
and new Rabbit Semiconductor developments. An overall marketing plan is executed with
the essential skills of writing, graphic design, marketing communication,
media relations, reseach, web development, e-commerce, and advertising
communication. Each member of the Marketing staff becomes involved in
the development of press releases, new product catalogs, tradeshow displays,
product advertising, web development, and many other marketing functions.
The entire team remains focused on taking exciting new products to market.
Engineering
Rabbit Semiconductor’s Engineering group is comprised of software and hardware
design professionals committed to development of innovative products.
The engineering group works in a fairly informal environment to promote
the exchange of ideas. The hardware engineers use a broad mix of technologies
including FPGAs, Rabbit microprocessor, analog design, and higher-power
semiconductor designs. The software engineers incorporate innovative ideas,
such as TCP/IP and the use of cooperative multitasking, into Rabbit Semiconductor’s
core technology — the Dynamic C software development environment.
Each software engineer is provided the latitude needed to develop efficient
code for driver libraries for new products.
Materials
The Materials Group is cross-trained between Product Packaging, Receiving,
Warehousing and Shipping to provide maximum job flexibility. Each employee
is familiar with tracking material movements using a computer-based inventory
control system. On-line UPS and Fed-Ex terminals are used in Shipping
to permit domestic and international shipments to be dispatched the same
day customer orders are received. The job variability keeps things interesting,
allowing utilization of different skill sets throughout the day.
Manufacturing
The Manufacturing Group produces and tests surface mount (SMT) and through-hole
printed circuit boards. Production staff operate fully-integrated SMT
lines, transforming components and bare boards into soldered, washed and
dried boards ready for testing. In addition, a wave-solder line is used
for boards requiring through-hole components. The product testing staff
takes pride in conducting multiple product tests, including Manufacturing
Defect Analysis (MDA), functional testing, and software testing. An added
benefit of working in the Manufacturing area is the new building environment
that uses bright, natural light from overhead skylights.
Test Engineering and Quality
Rabbit Semiconductor Test Engineers are responsible for developing test fixtures and
software used to evaluate products prior to shipment. The large number
of Rabbit Semiconductor products coupled with the wide range of customer applications
creates a major design challenge for our test engineers. Each Test Engineer
designs and builds a variety of both "bed-of-nails" vacuum and
functional fixtures, and switchable software to accomplish in-depth testing
of products. In addition to the Test department, Quality Inspectors work
with Manufacturing Product Testers by inspecting all incoming materials
before they reach Manufacturing. They conduct random-sample inspections
of boards coming off every Manufacturing assembly line to ensure no compromise
in quality.
Accounting and Finance
The people in Rabbit Semiconductor Accounting and Finance are more than just "bean
counters." Rabbit Semiconductor's Accounting team is an information hub within
the company. The professionals in Accounting consider their department
to be the internal service center for the rest of the organization. Each
and every day, Accounting personnel take pride in providing fast and accurate
responses to both external and internal customers. The Accounting team
strives to find new and better ways of providing support services throughout
the company.
