Sales Training 09/25/ Cypress Confidential CYPRESS INTERNAL USE ONLY Synaptics S320x Overview Synaptics S320x is a fully self-contained, ready to use, capacitance sensing IC featuring : Small finger support down to 4 mm diameter Point contact passive stylus input with automatic pen/finger disambiguation Supports gloved finger detection Up to 250 Hz report rate Support for screen sizes up to 5.9 in Synaptics S320x finds application in: Mobile phones Smart remote controls Digital cameras Synaptics S320x is a premium solution for touchscreens up to 5.9 in. offering advanced capabilities to enable new user interaction modes and integration flexibility. Synaptics S320x

Sales Training 09/25/ Cypress Confidential CYPRESS INTERNAL USE ONLY Challenges Using Synaptics S320x 1. Does not provide best-in-class Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) SNR is directly proportional to TX voltage Synaptics S320x can only provide 3.3 V TX drive inside the chip 2. Cannot support wet-finger tracking without false touches Waterproofing is required for functionality in the presence of condensation, sweat, or rain Synaptics S320x cannot do self + mutual capacitance sensing which is required for true waterproofing 3. Low performance CPU, less Flash and RAM; limits data processing within the touch controller Touch data processing needs to be done in the host processor for optimum performance TMA46x solves these problems TMA46x has a 10 V TX drive inside the chip for best-in-application SNR TMA46x uses both self and mutual capacitance sensing methods simultaneously enabling robust performance in the presence of water TMA46x contains a 32-bit ARM M0 CPU with 64 k Flash and 8 k RAM for the highest performance Smart Phone Requires high performance in the presence of noise and water TMA46x provides a high performance touchscreen solution

Sales Training 09/25/ Cypress Confidential CYPRESS INTERNAL USE ONLY Customer objections to adopting TMA46x over Synaptics 320x 1. “Synaptics S320x can provide advanced features like stylus and glove” Advanced features for TMA46x are in development 2. “Synaptics S320x is a lower cost solution” Neutral pricing for TMA46x can be provided when competing against Synaptics 3. “Previous design was using Synaptics S320x” / “More familiar with Synaptics S320x” TMA46x offers better performance than the Synaptics S320x in SNR, waterproofing, and power consumption

Sales Training 09/25/ Cypress Confidential CYPRESS INTERNAL USE ONLY Sales Cautions for TMA46x TMA46x has a lower number of RX channels Limits the ability to conduct full panel single-pass scanning Increased time needed to scan the full panel Lower refresh rate with dual-pass scanning configurations Cypress Confidential
