Conexant is one of the world's leading provider of modems and dial-up processors that are found in modems, fax machines, ATMs, credit card swipers etc. Even now, Conexant retains the majority market share of all modems sold today with their Softmodem processors through their HCF and HSF standards.

After their purchase of Brooktree, they entered the set-top box and convergence video segment and are now providing the majority of TV tuner DSPs for both PC add-on cards and PVRs.

In 2003, they merged with GlobespanVirata, a leading provider of Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), wireless networking (Wi-Fi), and other broadband solutions. Globespan Virata brought technologies which have given the combined company the potential for greater integration of broadband access with digital media devices to serve as the gateway for information and entertainment into the home.

In 2004, they acquired Amphion Semiconductor for their H.264 and VC1 technologies. Broadcom, their leading rival, had tactically acquired Sandvideo who were set to be Conexant's main source of H.264 technology for the emerging HDTV market. Their acquisition of the Belfast, UK based Amphion Semiconductor has allowed them to secure their future in the Hi-Def market and beyond.

The company is now fabless since they spun off Jazz Semiconductor in 2002. They rely on outsourced semiconductor foundries to manufacture their products.

Conexant is a worldwide leader in System-on-Chip solutions for broadband communications for carrier networks and the digital home. The company's products enable the seamless delivery of broadband information between public access networks and the homes and businesses they serve.
