Since its inception, Synaptics has always been a leader in how people interact with their machines – we are known widely as the HMI leader. Our lasting legacy will probably always be around our expertise in touch technology – we’re the company that brought you the original TouchPad on laptops. But we are also behind many of the capacitance sensing, display and identification technologies that are second nature to consumers now.…

A letter from Michael Hurlston, CEO and President, to Synaptics employees:

As I have been processing the series of events that have occurred over the past few months and weeks which have affected a lot of us both personally and professionally, I feel it’s important you know where I stand and what I expect from our company and you.

At Synaptics, we strongly believe in a workplace and a world where diversity and equality are…

In an era where technology seamlessly integrates with our daily lives, Synaptics leads the way, envisioning a future where digital and physical realms blend harmoniously. With the advent of the Synaptics AstraTM family of processors, we are not just launching a series of products but initiating a paradigm shift in the IoT and edge AI sectors.

In a highly connected world, there is a need for more intelligent and secure computation locally and preferably on the very devices that capture data, whether it be raw or compressed video, images, or voice. End markets continue to expect compute costs to trend down, at a time when computation demands are increasing, as is evident from recently popularized AI paradigms…

The lines between human capabilities and machine functions are being challenged and redrawn in exciting and extraordinary ways daily. AI technology, now having crossed an inflection point, has brought new legitimacy to the definition of heterogeneous compute, impacting system architectures ranging from resource-constrained devices at the edge to cloud servers. There is…
