Synaptics Incorporated

A designer of AI-enabled edge chips and human-interface technology, Synaptics makes the touchpads, fingerprint sensors, and wireless connectivity components found in laptops, phones, and cars. Its product lines include Astra AI-native processors, Veros wireless solutions, and Natural ID fingerprint sensors. The company designs its chips but outsources manufacturing to foundries, and in January 2025 it bought Wi-Fi technology assets from Broadcom to expand its wireless lineup.
