Microchip plans to invest in expanding silicon carbide production capacity in the U.S., with manufacturing technology involving 8-inch wafer applications
An important phase of the new investment expansion is the development and upgrading of its 50-acre, 580,000-square-foot Colorado Springs campus to increase SiC manufacturing for automotive/electric vehicles, grid infrastructure, green energy, and aerospace and defense applications. Microchip Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: MCHP) today announced plans to invest $880 million in its Colorado Springs manufacturing facility in […]
In 2023, sales of new energy vehicles will increase by 30% per year, and 40% of the cost will come from batteries
Fuel vehicles are driven by the heat energy generated by gasoline combustion into kinetic energy, electric vehicles mainly rely on batteries to drive motors, broadly speaking, as long as the use of “electric” to drive the car, can be called electric vehicles (EV), which will further increase the dependence on electronic components, and then drive […]
2022 electronic components sales market analysis and 2023 trend outlook
Overview of the current situation of the semiconductor industry in 2022 1, high open low go, semiconductor sales have fallen Looking back in 2022, the epidemic, inflation, trade conflicts and supply and demand mismatch are still the core factors leading to the shortage of chips, although the chip market ushered in an inflection point in […]
How to Conquer the EV Charging Station Challenge
Electric vehicles or EVs have a big problem. No, it’s not the chip shortage, but that’s been a serious hindrance to EV production. It’s the charging station dilemma. Unlike traditional gasoline-fueled vehicles, electric vehicles are, as the name implies, electric! When it comes to building charging stations for EVs there are a lot more factors […]
Enterprise SSD revenue expected to decline 20% in Q4 ’22
Recently, industry media released a report that the tight supply of components has eased recently, resulting in an increase in enterprise server shipments. With demand from ByteDance and tenders issued by Chinese telecommunications companies, ODM has largely been able to maintain the momentum of data center construction. The overall performance of the enterprise SSD market […]
Sluggish demand has begun to affect fab capacity utilization, but semiconductor investment is still increasing
Recently, orders for consumer semiconductor components are experiencing a “substantial downward correction” and are deepening. Therefore, the agency believes that the revenue of global wafer foundries will decline even more sharply in the fourth quarter of this year. Inventory depletion in the consumer electronics market has been lower than expected and a turnaround is unlikely […]
Sanctions trigger chip price increases? Hear what engineers and traders have to say
Since the trade dispute, US sanctions against China’s semiconductor sector have intensified, which has also raised concerns about future chip prices and supply. Recently, some financial and foreign policy analysts warned that the cost of chips will increase in the next few years due to US sanctions on Chinese chip technology. However, it is unclear […]
Betting on the third generation of semiconductors, automotive semiconductor manufacturers embrace the tide of electrification
Now, more and more automakers are betting on wide-bandgap power semiconductors such as SiC and GaN, silicon carbide and gallium nitride, which reduce component size, increase efficiency and improve the performance of hybrid and all-electric vehicles. So after the upward conduction, chipmakers are transforming their businesses to catch up with the explosive growth of the […]
The $1 Billion Market in Sight: What Are the Other Important Information About Automotive SiC Power Components?
Credit Suisse expects to sell 63 million new energy vehicles worldwide by the beginning of the next decade; Of these, 29 million will be fully electric. Meanwhile, industry watchers warn that growing demand for electricity will put further pressure on power infrastructure. In order to further improve the power performance of electric vehicles (EVs), the […]
What are Electronic Components? Types, Classification and Major Applications of Electronic Components.
An electronic component is any basic discrete device in an electronic system used to affect electrons or their associated fields. They are the elements of circuit which helps in its functioning. Electronic components have a number of electrical terminals. These terminals connect to other electrical components to create an electronic circuit. Classification of Electronic Components: Components […]
