The company remains focused on driving growth through market share gains, investments in strategic markets, and expanding its portfolio of analog and mixed-signal solutions. onsemi also emphasized strengthening its silicon carbide leadership in automotive, as evidenced by a recent supply agreement with Volkswagen Group.
onsemi has signed a multi-year deal with Volkswagen Group to be the primary supplier of a complete power box solution for its next-generation traction inverter. The solution, based on onsemi's EliteSiC M3e platform, features silicon carbide-based technologies in an integrated module scalable across all power levels. This will enable Volkswagen to customize power needs for different vehicles while maximizing efficiency and performance.
The power box solution can handle more power in a smaller package, reducing energy losses and improving system efficiency. Volkswagen will benefit from onsemi's planned expansion of silicon carbide manufacturing in the Czech Republic, establishing an end-to-end production facility in Europe for the traction inverter power system.
onsemi (Nasdaq: ON) has introduced its latest generation silicon carbide technology platform, EliteSiC M3e MOSFETs, to accelerate the global transition to electrification. This new platform significantly improves energy efficiency for power-hungry applications, with the ability to reduce conduction losses by 30% and turn-off losses by up to 50% compared to previous generations.
The EliteSiC M3e MOSFETs offer the industry's lowest specific on-resistance (RSP) with short circuit capability, important for the traction inverter market. They can deliver approximately 20% more output power in the same traction inverter housing or enable designs with 20% less SiC content, reducing costs and allowing for smaller, lighter, and more reliable systems.
onsemi has also unveiled plans to introduce multiple future generations of silicon carbide at an accelerated pace through 2030, applying Moore's Law concepts to SiC development to meet rising global energy demands.
onsemi (Nasdaq: ON) will announce its second-quarter financial results on July 29, 2024. The report will be released before the market opens, detailing the fiscal period ending June 28, 2024.
