The Astra Machina Foundation Series development kit supports the SL-Series processors, aiding both novices and experts in unlocking the processors' AI capabilities, processing power, graphics performance and wireless connectivity.
Synaptics is focusing on investing in its Core IoT products that account for its wireless and processor product revenues. SYNA is witnessing the normalization of channel inventory in the wireless division. Moreover, Synaptics’ inventory levels of PC, wireless and mobile product divisions are also getting normal over time.
Yet, the company encounters challenges amid global economic uncertainty and reduced worldwide demand. Additionally, inventory accumulation persists in the enterprise sector, with slower-than-anticipated movement. This slowdown in enterprise IT spending has particularly affected higher-margin segments of SYNA’s business.
