Cypress

Cypress Semiconductor Corporation was a San Jose, California semiconductor company founded in 1982, and an early Mayfield venture investment. It designed and manufactured mixed-signal, embedded, and connectivity silicon — most notably the PSoC programmable system-on-chip microcontrollers, WICED Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless combos, USB controllers (EZ-USB), NOR flash and SRAM memory, and automotive Traveo microcontrollers — supported by the ModusToolbox and PSoC Creator developer tooling and the Cypress Developer Community. Infineon Technologies AG acquired Cypress in April 2020 for approximately 9.4 billion dollars; the business, its developer community, and its GitHub repositories have since been folded into Infineon. cypress.com now redirects to infineon.com and the developer resources live at community.infineon.com. Cypress shipped hardware SDKs and embedded toolchains rather than a public web/REST API, so there is no independent HTTP API surface to catalog for this entity — this profile documents it as a historical, acquired provider.

Cypress is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Semiconductors, Hardware, Microcontrollers, and Embedded.
