Apple, Cirrusâ largest customer, accounted for 83% of its total revenue in fiscal 2021. The iPhone maker produced 80% of Cirrusâ total revenue in the previous quarter indicating that Apple smartphones are using more chips from Cirrus and is playing a key role in its growth.Power conversion chips are supplied by Cirrus to Apple for their latest iPhones, along with audio codecs.
