SAN JOSE, Calif., June 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Synaptics (NASDAQ: SYNA), a leading developer of human interface solutions, today raised its outlook for the fourth quarter ending June 30, 2013. 

Synaptics expects to report net revenue in the range of $227 million to $230 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, an increase at the mid-point of approximately 66% year-over-year and 40% sequentially. The expected net revenue range exceeds the high end of the previously provided outlook of $190 million to $205 million. Gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 is expected to be approximately 50%.
