Infineon Technologies ranks first in the global power semiconductor market for eight consecutive years. According to data released by IMS Research, Infineon further consolidated its leading position in 2010, occupying 11.2% of the global market, ahead of Toshiba (6.8%), STMicroelectronics (6.5%) and Mitsubishi (6.5%) ). According to IMS Research's market survey, Infineon has a market share of 8.6% in the discrete power semiconductor market segments, and for the first time it is certain that it has a clear top position in this market.
Arunjai Mittal, President of Infineon Technologies Industrial and Diversified Electronic Markets, said, “We are very pleased that we have not only secured the No. 1 position in the power semiconductor market, but also further consolidated our leading position. Now, the British Infineon also has an unquestionable leading position in the discrete power device market.The power transmission and distribution solutions for renewable energy power generation require the use of highly efficient power transmission lines and smart grids for the purpose of improving power generation, transmission and distribution. This will bring new growth opportunities to Infineon, a leading supplier of key components for energy efficiency in all aspects of electricity use."
IMS Research is still very optimistic about the long-term development prospects of the global power semiconductor market, and it is expected that by 2015, the market will grow by about 50% to approximately US$24 billion. After undergoing a sharp turnaround in 2009, the global power semiconductor market regained its vibrancy in 2010, an increase of 40% to approximately US$16 billion. This is $2 billion higher than the record set in 2008. In 2010, the power semiconductor module market grew by 58% to nearly 3.5 billion US dollars. The growth of the power module market was mainly attributable to the growth in the areas of industrial motor drives, renewable energy generation and hybrid and electric vehicles, and consumer electronics. In 2010, the growth rate of the power module market exceeded the growth rate of the discrete power device market, which increased by 37% to 12.3 billion US dollars. High market demand for personal computers and servers, lighting applications, energy-efficient industrial and renewable energy generation applications, and home electronics products have benefited this market segment. In China, the output of air conditioners and washing machines using variable frequency technology (VSD) has increased significantly.
Power semiconductors have played a very important role in improving the conversion efficiency of wind power and solar power generation grid-connected systems and minimizing the power consumed during the process of transferring electricity from a power generation site to a power-use site due to its great distance. The important role. These energy-saving chips also enable efficient power supply to computers, servers, and home appliances, and are an indispensable element for highly efficient motor control.
In order to achieve further success in the energy-saving chip market, Infineon has been in full swing to develop a new generation of power semiconductors. On October 10, 2011, Infineon announced a landmark advancement in technology: Infineon is the world's first to use 300mm thin wafers to produce first silicon for power semiconductors. supplier. At the end of July this year, Infineon announced that as an investment plan, it will build a factory in Dresden to mass produce 300-mm power semiconductor devices. To this end, Infineon will spend around 250 million euros to build a factory in Dresden before 2014 and will create about 250 jobs.
