Synaptics TouchView^™ TDDI technology marked an inflection point for a new era in smartphone architectures and is today shipping in mass production volumes -- with many of the world’s top brands now releasing TDDI-based models to the market.

The TouchView TD4303 further expands Synaptics’ ability to address this fast growing TDDI-based smartphone market with its first-in-the-industry support for hybrid in-cell panel technology.
