Texas Instruments Incorporated
"Engineering Progress"
US global semiconductor leader founded 1951; analog ICs, MCUs, and motor-driver chips for industrial and robotics customers worldwide.
Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) is an American multinational semiconductor company headquartered at 12500 TI Boulevard, Dallas, Texas 75243. Founded in 1951 from the reorganization of Geophysical Service Incorporated (originally established in 1930), TI has shaped the history of electronics: it produced the world's first commercial silicon transistor in 1954, the first transistor radio that same year, and in 1958 TI engineer Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit—a milestone that earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2000.
Today TI's business is organized around two core segments: Analog and Embedded Processing. Analog chips account for the majority of revenue and encompass amplifiers, data converters, motor drivers, power-management ICs, clocks, RF components, and sensor signal conditioning. The Embedded Processing segment produces digital signal processors (DSPs) and microcontrollers (MCUs) including the well-known C2000™ real-time MCU family and the Sitara™ application-processor family, both widely adopted in industrial motor control, robotics, and servo drives.
For robotics and automation specifically, TI offers a comprehensive portfolio: C2000™ MCUs with integrated EtherCAT and PROFINET support for real-time field-bus communication, DRV8xxx-series motor-driver ICs supporting stepper and BLDC motors up to multi-kilowatt levels, TIDA reference designs for collaborative robot (cobot) joint modules, and edge-AI processors such as the TDA4VM for machine vision and lidar processing. These chips serve every major robot architecture, from joint servo control to perception pipelines.
TI ships more than 80,000 distinct products to over 100,000 customers across industrial, automotive, personal electronics, communications, and enterprise segments. The company holds the largest market share in the global analog semiconductor market—exceeding $10 billion of the roughly $57 billion total analog market. Fiscal year 2025 revenue was approximately $17.68 billion. Manufacturing operations span multiple continents; all TI fabrication sites are certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001. TI is publicly traded on Nasdaq under the ticker TXN.
