Over the past four decades, Cirrus Logic has consistently pushed the boundaries of technology, delivering groundbreaking solutions that have transformed the audio and electronics industries. Founded in 1984, Cirrus Logic has grown from a PC components startup to a global leader in low-power, high-performance mixed-signal processing solutions for the world’s top mobile and consumer applications.\n\n\nThe company's journey has been marked by numerous milestones, including the development of industry-leading audio converters, smart amplifiers, low-power DSPs, camera controllers, battery and power conversion components, and haptics and sensing technologies. Engineering-led and innovation focused, the company holds more than 3,900 issued and pending patents worldwide for its technology portfolio, integral to a wide range of applications from smartphones and tablets to PCs and professional audio systems, providing immersive, personalized experiences and advanced capabilities.\n\n\n\"Today, we reflect on our 40-year journey from a visionary fabless startup to a global leader in mixed-signal solutions,” said John Forsyth, CEO of Cirrus Logic. “Our success is built on the dedication and innovation of our talented team, the trust of our customers, and the support of our shareholders. We remain committed to pushing the boundaries of what's possible, driving excellence, and delivering value. We look forward to our next 40 years of innovation and success.\"\n\n\nThe company has navigated a variety of challenges over the years, which led to a strategic refocus on core mixed-signal processing competencies in the mid-90s. Capitalizing on the growth of the early home entertainment markets at the time, Cirrus Logic developed leading DSP, interface, and audio converter solutions for high performance, multi-channel audio systems and gaming consoles. Then recognizing the significant growth potential in handheld consumer devices, the company shifted focus to this market, developing groundbreaking products that integrated ultra-low power signal processing capabilities with uncompromised high-performance audio.
