As the market of high definition television began to saturate, General Instrument (GI) split into three parts in 1997: CommScope took the cable infrastructure products, NextLevel the consumer television side and General Semiconductor the power electronics products. NextLevel took over the GI name the next year. This new GI was purchased by Motorola in 2000, which was in turn purchased by Google who spun out the television side to "ARRIS". "ARRIS" was then purchased by CommScope in 2018, once again bringing together all of GI's original television divisions. General Semiconductor continues to operate separately.
