The global automotive industry is pouring billions of dollars into SiC semiconductors, hoping that they could be key to transforming vehicle power systems. This shift is rapidly changing the supply chain at all levels, from components to modules. In the previous piece "SiC vs. Silicon Debate: Wil...

Onsemi, a semiconductor manufacturer, announced at the end of April that it had signed a Long-Term Supply Agreement for SiC power components with Zeekr, a subsidiary of Geely Auto Group. Geely Automotive will use Onsemi's EliteSiC power components to optimize energy conversion efficiency in its elec...

The compound semiconductor market has been flourishing in recent years thanks to the strong demand from markets such as electric vehicles and renewable energy. This has led to an increase in M&A as companies race to establish their position in the industry. The market has seen a significant s...

Looking at the development of the global SiC (silicon carbide) industry, IDMs in Europe and the United States occupy an absolute leading position, with the United States accounting for more than half of the market share in the substrate material sector. In order to ensure long-term and stable develo...

At present, the materials with the most development potential are Wide Band Gap (WBG) semiconductors with high power and high frequency characteristics, including silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), which are mainly used in electric vehicles (EV) and the fast charging battery market. T...
