About RF Cafe
Copyright: 1996 - 2024 BSEE - KB3UON 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 typing up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...

Top 100 R&D Companies for 2002

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 | 27 | 28 | 29 | 30 | 31 | 32 | 33 | 34 | 35 | 36 IEEE's list of the top 100 R&D spenders in 2002 is finally out. At the top of the list again this year is Ford Motor Co., at $7.7B - that's right, $7.7x109. Microsoft came in at #10 with $4.3B. Motorola is #13 at $3.75B. Nokia, at #22, spent $3.24B. Agilent spent $1.17B and came in 65th. Broadcom, of WLAN fame, is #93 at $714M. Computer Associates was dead last at a measly $664M invested in R&D. Overall, telecom R&D was way up while sales were way down. Hardware and equipment was way down in both departments. Here's a surprise (not), only pharmaceuticals & biotechnology saw increases in both sales and R&D. |
