About Silicon Labs
Silicon Laboratories was founded in Austin in 1996 and evolved into a fabless semiconductor company focused on low-power wireless connectivity. The portfolio supports Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, Thread, Matter, proprietary sub-GHz links and embedded control, backed by software stacks, development kits and device-management services.
Robotics exposure is enabling rather than defining. Silicon Labs parts can provide local control or wireless links inside drones, sensors and industrial equipment, including a sourced microcontroller design-in within current FPV motor-control hardware. The company remains primarily an IoT connectivity supplier, and its agreed acquisition by Texas Instruments is still pending with closing targeted for 2027; ownership therefore remains public and independent until completion.
