     On August 20, 2003, Agilent Technologies Inc. announced it had named Young K. Sohn as senior vice president and general manager of its Semiconductor Products Group (SPG).

     Sohn was most recently the chairman and CEO of Oak Technology, a semiconductor company that provides digital media solutions for consumer electronics markets.

Sohn will assume his responsibilities in early October.

At Quantum, Sohn served in a variety of positions, including president of its Hard Drive Group, vice president of marketing for the Desktop Division, and president of the company’s Asia-Pacific Region. Sohn also held a number of positions at Intel Corporation in Santa Clara, Calif., where he served as director of marketing for Intel’s first branded retail product, and led Intel’s PC chipset business unit. Sohn began his high tech career with Hewlett-Packard as a product engineer in HP’s Avondale, Pa. Instrumentation Division.

     Sohn, 47, was born in Seoul, South Korea. He received a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania, and a Master’s Degree in Management Science at MIT. He serves on the boards of Cymer Inc. and PLX Technology.

     SPG, which had revenues of $1.6 billion in fiscal year 2002, is a leading supplier of advanced semiconductor components serving customers in the communications, wireless, computing, storage, consumer electronics and industrial markets.
