Cypress Semiconductor Corporation was an American semiconductor design and manufacturing company. It offered NOR flash memories, F-RAM and SRAM Traveo microcontrollers, PSoCs, PMICs, capacitive touch-sensing controllers, Wireless BLE Bluetooth Low-Energy and USB connectivity solutions.Its headquarters were in San Jose, California, with operations in the United States, Ireland, India and the Philippines. In April 2016, Cypress Semiconductors announced the acquisition of Broadcom’s Wireless Internet of Things Business. The deal was closed in July 2016.In June 2019, Infineon Technologies announced it would acquire Cypress for $9.4 billion. The deal closed in April 2020, making Infineon one of the world's top 10 semiconductor manufacturers. In addition to the earliest design center in Silicon Valley, California, Cypress also has design plants in Colorado, Washington, Oregon, Minnesota, Kentucky, New Hampshire, England, Ireland, and the Philippines. Cypress began using 0.8-micron CMOS process technology in 1987, moved to 0.65-micron in 1992, and will soon introduce 0.21-micron technology. Now more than 70% of its products are manufactured using 0.35-micron or lower processes. Cypress makes full use of process and manufacturing technology expertise based on product performance to expand its product line to wired and wireless USB devices, CMOS image sensors, timing technology solutions, network search engines, professional memory, high-bandwidth synchronous and micro-power memory products, optical solutions, and reconfigurable mixed signal arrays.
