The fast-growing battery-powered smart speaker market will particularly benefit from this patented technology, which combines the advantages of extended play time, compact design, and enhanced audio performance. For smart speaker users, sound quality is more important, and using speakers to listen to music has become more popular. The Merus Audio solution is based on the so-called cascade converter technology, which can reduce total harmonic distortion and achieve noise reduction. According to a report released by SAR Insight *, by 2022, the annual revenue of the smart speaker market is expected to grow by 55% (2017-2022 CAGR).

According to Infineon's strategic policy of "from product to system", the addition of Merus Audio technology can further consolidate Infineon's technical expertise in the field of human-computer interaction (HMI). For example, Infineon can now achieve more accurate speech recognition, and this is based on the fusion expertise of Infineon sensors, and uses radar and silicon microphone technology.

Merus Audio will be fully integrated into Infineon's existing audio business and become part of the Power Management and Diversified Market Division. Both companies agreed not to disclose the financial details of the transaction.
