Tempo Semiconductor
Tempo Semiconductor, Inc. is a privately held fabless semiconductor company based in Austin, Texas. The company leverages its extensive intellectual property (IP) portfolio, which includes ultra-low power mixed signal, analog, and DSP technologies, to deliver chip and software-based solutions that enhance the audio experience for end-users.
Tempo's roots can be traced back to the Integrated Device Technology (IDT) audio business unit, which was previously acquired from SigmaTel. With over $100 million in investment capital, Tempo has a strong portfolio of patents and products inherited from these acquisitions. The company's history of providing top-tier audio products spans over 20 years. SigmaTel, renowned for its audio innovation and numerous industry firsts, laid the groundwork for the technology that Tempo's founder and design team members are now integrating into Tempo's unique low-power solutions.
Tempo's product range targets both consumer and industrial audio solutions. Their technology is integrated into a wide array of products, including personal computers, laptops, tablets, headphones, printers, video monitors, and game consoles, among others. Anywhere there is a demand for audio, Tempo's chip and software expertise can optimize the end-user experience. Their market reach extends from smartphones to airplanes and everything in between, demonstrating their commitment to enhancing audio experiences across a broad spectrum of applications.
