The Company operates through four segments: Automotive, Industrial Power Control, Power Management & Multimarket, and Chip Card & Security. The Automotive segment designs, develops, manufactures and markets semiconductors for use in automotive applications. The Industrial Power Control segment designs, develops, manufactures and markets semiconductors for the conversion of electric energy in the medium to high power range. The Power Management & Multimarket segment designs, develops, manufactures and markets semiconductors for power supplies, and for mobile devices and cellular infrastructure, as well as offers a range of Class-D amplifiers for home audio applications. The Chip Card & Security segment designs, develops, manufactures and markets hardware-based security products for card applications and connected systems.
Cypress Semiconductor is one of America’s most dynamic semiconductor companies. The company has it headquarters in San Jose, California. Cypress solutions are at the heart of any system that is built to perform: consumer, computation, data communications, automotive, industrial, and solar power. Leveraging a strong commitment to customer service and performance-based process and manufacturing expertise, Cypress’s product portfolio includes a broad selection of wired and wireless USB devices, CMOS image sensors, timing solutions, network search engines, specialty memories, high-bandwidth synchronous and micropower memory products, optical solutions, and reconfigurable mixed-signal arrays. Cypress stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol CY. The Irish Design Centre was established in Blackrock, Cork in 1998 as part of Cypress’ New Product Division. It consists of both analog and logic teams that design state-of-the-art mixed-signal products for the Cypress product line divisions. The centre has recently earned the title of “Centre of Excellence” (COE) within Cypress Semiconductor for Phase Locked Loop (PLL) Intellectual Property (IP) design. The Cypress vision for COEs is to develop world-class expertise in the IP building blocks that are used to construct Cypress products. The charter for certified COE designers is to become recognized experts in their respective areas of expertise, not only within Cypress, but world-wide.
