Milford , Massachusetts -- In response to growing industry interest in its InGenius® line of balanced input stage ICs, THAT Corporation has announced details of its InGenius Identity Program.  According to THAT's marketing manager Denise Waterhouse, "the InGenius Identity Program will promote end-user awareness of THAT's InGenius technology, making it easier for equipment buyers to identify products that include InGenius.  Participating manufacturers will identify InGenius-equipped products via a family of logos to appear on the products themselves and in associated promotional materials."  Waterhouse continued, "Simultaneously, THAT will independently promote the InGenius trademark and logo to end users through a print and internet campaign.  Manufacturers who opt into the logo program will benefit from our and their combined advertising and marketing efforts."

“Audio manufacturers who include InGenius in their products are providing a real, audible benefit to their customers,” said Les Tyler, THAT's President.  “As a direct result of our technology, InGenius inputs are quieter in real world applications, setting up faster and with less troubleshooting.  Like the ‘Intel Inside’ campaign, the identity program helps manufacturers get this point across to their customers.  Our logo will reinforce the InGenius advantage at the point of sale.  And, we're making it easy to get signed up and use the logo."  For full details about the program, including participation requirements, follow this link: InGenius-ID , or visit our booth (#2805) at AES118 in Barcelona.

The patented InGenius concept was developed by Bill Whitlock, President of Jensen Transformers, and is available exclusively from THAT.  The technology enables an active input stage to act like a transformer in presenting an extremely high input impedance to common mode (noise) signals.  Whitlock commented, "InGenius is almost completely insensitive to the source impedance imbalances which overwhelm typical balanced input stages.  Even with a 400-ohm source-impedance imbalance, THAT's InGenius ICs deliver 70dB common mode rejection.  No other solid-state input stage can deliver that performance!"

InGenius ICs are made using THAT’s proprietary dielectric isolation (DI) process in the company's Milpitas , California fabrication facility.

THAT Corporation, founded in 1989, provides high-performance analog integrated circuits to the professional audio manufacturer, and is best known for its line of IC voltage-controlled amplifiers (VCAs) and RMS-level detectors used throughout the pro audio industry. The company is headquartered in Milford , Massachusetts , with offices in Tokyo , Japan and Milpitas , California .  In addition to its IC business, THAT also licenses audio technology to the TV broadcast and reception industries.
