Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
REVENUE AND CONTRACT BALANCES 11. REVENUE AND CONTRACT BALANCES
The Company recognizes revenue when we satisfy performance obligations as evidenced by the transfer of control of our products or services to customers. In general, the Company generates revenue from product sales, either directly to customers or to distributors. In determining whether a contract exists, we evaluate the terms of the agreement, the relationship with the customer or distributor and their ability to pay. Service revenue is generally recognized over time as the services are performed. For the three and six months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, the service revenue was not material.
The Company reports revenue based on its reportable segments and end markets, which provides information about how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Please refer to Note 14: Segment Information, for disclosure of revenue by segment and end markets.

Contract liabilities
$14,830 $18,646 
Our contract liabilities are primarily related to payments received in advance of satisfying performance obligations, and are reported in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets within accrued expenses and other current liabilities.
Contract liabilities increased as a result of receiving new advanced payments from customers, partially offset by the recognition in revenue of $10.6 million that was included in contract liabilities as of September 28, 2024.
