Cypress Announces New CEO Blog on Cypress.com; T.J. Rodgers to Communicate Monthly About Business and Technology Topics

SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (Nasdaq: CY), a global leader in embedded systems solutions, today announced the debut of a regular blog by its president and chief executive officer, T.J. Rodgers. Once or twice a month, Rodgers will post on business, technology and management topics. Current posts and a blog repository will be available in the "From the CEO" section of Cypress.com, under the "About Us" navigation tab on the Cypress home page (http://www.cypress.com). The blogs will also be available via the company's Core & Code quarterly online magazine and technical blog at core.cypress.com and directly via core.cypress.com/ceoblog.

Rodgers's first blog, available online now, addresses recent Cypress design win success, including two "cross-selling" wins by the Cypress sales team in the wake of the company's recent merger with Spansion. One of these was a platform win with a Tier 1 U.S. automaker, which selected Traveo™ automotive MCUs, HyperRAM™ and HyperFlash™ memories and analog power management ICs (PMICs) developed by Spansion, and PSoC^® programmable system-on-chip solutions developed by Cypress, for the infotainment cluster of its next-generation models.

"The blog provides me with another way to communicate with our customers and investors," Rodgers said. "It's a bonus that I'll be able to use both our existing Core & Code technical blog and our recently upgraded Cypress.com website."   

Those wishing to provide feedback or suggestions regarding the new blog can email Rodgers at [email protected].
