onsemi to Acquire Synaptics to Enable the Next Generation of Intelligent Systems for Physical AI

  • Accelerates onsemi's evolution, building on its strength in power and sensing to become a leading provider of intelligent systems — expanding from AI data centers into Physical AI

  • Increases onsemi's total addressable market by $30 billion to $243 billion by 2030

  • Positions onsemi at the intersection of Power, Sense, Connected Compute and Control — the four pillars of Physical AI — which enable machines to sense, decide, act and adapt in the physical world

  • Would combine complementary portfolios to drive significant customer value and deepen customer engagements

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. & SAN JOSE, Calif., June 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- onsemi (Nasdaq: ON) and Synaptics Incorporated (Nasdaq: SYNA) today announced they have entered into a definitive agreement under which onsemi has agreed to acquire Synaptics in an all-stock transaction, representing a total enterprise value of approximately $7 billion. The transaction value reflects a fixed exchange ratio of 1.350 shares of onsemi common stock for each Synaptics share and represents an approximately 19% premium to the volume weighted average closing prices of onsemi and Synaptics over the last 10 trading days.

The combination would accelerate onsemi's evolution toward global leadership in intelligent systems. By adding Synaptics' differentiated Edge AI compute franchise and strong portfolio of human-machine interface and wireless connectivity solutions, onsemi is expected to extend its capabilities beyond power and sensing to intelligent systems, delivering greater value to a broad range of end markets. Building on onsemi's expertise in automotive, industrial and AI data center, the combined platform is intended to position onsemi at the center of Physical AI, with the potential to expand onsemi's TAM by $30 billion to $243 billion by 2030.

"As artificial intelligence moves beyond the cloud and into the physical world, including automotive and industrial, the next phase of innovation will depend on systems that can sense, decide, act and adapt in real time," said Hassane El-Khoury, President and CEO of onsemi. "This shift towards Physical AI will require Power, Sense, Connected Compute and Control to work together seamlessly. The addition of Synaptics helps position onsemi at the intersection of these four pillars, enabling us to capture a significantly larger AI opportunity that extends beyond AI data center and into edge applications. This transaction would add immediate connected compute capabilities, expand our software and ecosystem reach and position onsemi to deliver greater value as customers increasingly seek intelligent systems."
