Allegro MicroSystems' chips do their jobs at a lively tempo. The company is one of the world's top makers of Hall-effect sensors. Auto makers use these specialized components -- named after an electromagnetic phenomenon called "the Hall effect" -- in braking, steering, suspension, and other systems. Allegro also makes power integrated circuits (ICs) used in office machines and portable electronics, along with driver, controller, and power interface ICs used in a variety of applications. It sells directly and through distributors to OEMs worldwide. The company, a subsidiary of Sanken Electric, entered the chip business four decades ago as Sprague Semiconductor Group before taking the Allegro name in 1990.
