About

About Broadcom

Broadcom is a public technology group headquartered in Palo Alto, with a portfolio spanning semiconductors and infrastructure software. Its chip businesses cover wired and wireless connectivity, switching, optical networking, storage interfaces and signal processing. The company is much broader than robotics, so its robotics role is concentrated in the hardware layers that move data between sensors, compute and communications systems.

Within Korthos, Broadcom is tracked as an upstream component supplier rather than a robot or autonomy developer. Named supplier evidence connects its semiconductors to LiDAR manufacturers including Ouster and Blickfeld, where high-bandwidth interfaces and communications silicon support perception hardware. That role is strategically relevant to system architecture, but Broadcom does not disclose robotics-specific revenue, unit volume or a dedicated robotics business line.
