Asia-Pacific Power Transistor Industry Overview
The competitive rivalry in the Asia-Pacific power transistor market is high, as the market studied is home to prominent vendors like Toshiba, Mitsubishi Electric, and Renesas, among others, that command a major market share in different segments and have access to well-established distribution networks. Owing to the electronics industry being one of the largest markets, the existence of such a high number of major vendors without compromising their market shares is sustainable. However, each vendor is fiercely competing to gain a larger share of the market studied. Some of the developments adopted by these vendors include:
In Aug 2022, Renesas Electronics Corporation announced the development of a new generation of Silicon Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors, which will offer low power losses. The company will also ramp up production by the first half of 2024 at its power semiconductor 300-mm wafer fab in Japan to meet the increasing demand for power semiconductor products.
In June 2022, Mitsubishi Electric Inc. announced a new version of its 2.0kV LV100 insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) module specifically designed for photovoltaic (PV) applications. The new power module enables product designers to reduce the number of power-conversion inverters and overall power consumption in photovoltaic equipment.
