RCA was founded by General Electric (which owned a controlling interest) on October 17, 1919. Due to antitrust charges brought about by the Department of Justice in 1930, GE gave up its controlling interest of the company; RCA retaining its radio factories. In 1986 RCA was absorbed back into GE. The majority of RCA's semiconductor portfolio was eventually sold off to [[Harris Semiconductor]]. In 1999 Harris spun off its semiconductor division as [[Intersil Corporation]], going public on February 25, 2000. At the time, becoming the largest IPO for a U.S. semiconductor company in history. | RCA was founded by General Electric (which owned a controlling interest) on October 17, 1919.
