IoT & Wireless Connectivity ICs

Pure-play IoT chip company after divesting Infrastructure/Automotive; EFR32 wireless SoC family (Matter/Zigbee/BLE/Thread) leads smart home and industrial IoT markets.

About

Silicon Laboratories (Silabs) was founded in 1996 in Austin, Texas and initially built mixed-signal ICs for modem and broadcast applications before pivoting to become a pure-play IoT chip company. Following the 2021 divestiture of its Infrastructure & Automotive business to Skyworks Solutions for $2.75 billion, Silabs is 100% focused on wireless connectivity semiconductors for IoT applications.\n\nSilabs' EFR32 Wireless Gecko SoC family is a market leader in smart home connectivity, supporting Matter, Zigbee, Thread, Bluetooth Low Energy, Sub-GHz, and Wi-Fi standards. These chips power smart lights, thermostats, door locks, energy meters, industrial sensors, and medical monitoring devices. The company's Simplicity Studio software ecosystem and extensive protocol stack support give it a strong developer platform advantage, especially as the Matter smart home standard (backed by Apple, Google, Amazon) gains adoption.\n\nSilabs also provides energy harvesting solutions and ultra-low-power microcontrollers for battery-powered IoT devices. The company generated approximately $2 billion in annual revenue before the Infrastructure divestiture and is now growing its IoT-focused revenue base through increasing smart home and industrial IoT demand. Silabs operates a fabless model and partners with TSMC for advanced node production.

About

Honda Motor Co., Ltd. is a Japanese multinational mobility conglomerate founded in 1948 by Soichiro Honda and Takeo Fujisawa in Hamamatsu, Japan. Starting as a motorcycle manufacturer, Honda expanded into automobiles, power equipment, marine engines, and aerospace, becoming one of the largest and most diversified mobility companies in the world. With over 90 million vehicles sold globally and a reputation built on engineering reliability, fuel efficiency, and innovation, Honda operates manufacturing facilities across more than 30 countries on six continents.\n\nHonda's automotive lineup ranges from mass-market sedans and SUVs — including the best-selling Civic and CR-V — to trucks, minivans, and the premium Acura brand. The company is executing a major pivot to electrification through the Honda 0 Series, a new EV architecture designed from the ground up for battery-electric vehicles launching in 2026. Honda's partnership with General Motors on battery technology, combined with its investment in solid-state battery development, reflects a multi-path electrification strategy designed to hedge technology risk while building scale.\n\nHonda reported FY2025 revenue of JPY 21.7 trillion, a 6.2% year-over-year increase, driven by strong North American demand and favorable currency tailwinds. The company faces intensifying competition from Chinese EV manufacturers in Asia and is exploring a potential merger with Nissan as part of broader Japanese automotive consolidation. Honda's engineering culture, global manufacturing scale, and brand credibility in reliability position it as a resilient and well-capitalized incumbent navigating the EV transition.
