The company returned $26.2 million to stockholders in Q4 2024 and $105.1 million for the full year. Capital expenditure for FY 2024 was $320.1 million. Management provided Q1 2025 guidance with expected revenues of $710 million ±$20 million and a gross profit margin of 19.0% ±50 basis points, including a negative impact of 175-200 basis points related to Newport.

Vishay Intertechnology (NYSE: VSH) has introduced 16 new 650 V and 1200 V silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes in the SOT-227 package. The new components include 40 A to 240 A dual diode devices in parallel configuration, and 50 A and 90 A single phase bridge devices.

The diodes feature a low forward voltage drop down to 1.36 V, reducing conduction losses for increased efficiency. Built on thin wafer technology, they offer improved reverse recovery parameters compared to Si-based diodes with virtually no recovery tail. The devices' low capacitive charge (QC) down to 56 nC enables high-speed switching.

Key applications include AC/DC PFC and DC/DC ultra high frequency output rectification in converters for photovoltaic systems, charging stations, industrial UPS, and telecom power supplies. The diodes operate at temperatures up to +175 °C and feature UL approval. Samples and production quantities are available with 18-week lead times.

Vishay Intertechnology (NYSE: VSH) has introduced the new TSM3 series of multi-turn, surface-mount cermet trimmers. These devices feature a compact 3 mm x 4 mm x 4 mm footprint, representing a 25% size reduction compared to previous generations. The trimmers operate in a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C and offer IP67 sealing.

Key features include a wide resistance range of 10Ω to 2MΩ, a power rating of 0.125W at +70°C, and availability in both top and side adjustment styles. The TSM3 series supports automated PCB assembly and setting processes, designed for harsh environment applications in industrial, consumer, and telecom sectors.

Applications include automation controls, sensors, welding systems, cooling systems, robotics, power tools, smoke detectors, radios, and precision testing instrumentation. The products are currently available with a 15-week lead time.

Vishay Intertechnology (NYSE: VSH) has scheduled its fourth quarter and full-year 2024 financial results announcement for Wednesday, February 5, 2025, before the NYSE market opening. The company will host a conference call at 9:00 a.m. ET on the same day to discuss the results.

Interested participants must pre-register for the conference call through a provided link, after which they will receive dial-in details and a unique PIN. The company will also provide a live audio webcast and make available a PDF copy of the press release and quarterly presentation on their investor relations website. A replay of the conference call will be accessible approximately one hour after the call and remain available for 30 days.

Vishay Intertechnology (NYSE: VSH) has expanded its frequency control portfolio with new surface-mount crystals and oscillators. The expansion includes six new crystal series and three oscillator series, featuring smaller package sizes down to 1.6mm x 1.2mm for crystals and 2.0mm x 1.6mm for oscillators. These compact designs reduce board space requirements and lower costs by up to 40% compared to current 5mm x 7mm packages.

The new crystals operate in a frequency range of 12 MHz to 60 MHz, plus a 32.768 kHz tuning fork crystal, with frequency tolerances of ±20 ppm or better at 25°C. The oscillators cover 1.0 MHz to 125 MHz. Both product lines feature improved temperature stabilities of ±25 ppm or better, surpassing existing standards of ±50 ppm for crystals and ±100 ppm for oscillators. Custom options for stability, tolerance, and operating temperature range are available.

Vishay Intertechnology (NYSE: VSH) has introduced enhanced precision thin film MELF resistors with improved specifications. The AEC-Q200 qualified resistors in 0102, 0204, and 0207 case sizes now feature low TCR down to ± 15 ppm/K, tight tolerances down to ± 0.1%, and high resistance values up to 10 MΩ.

The new precision MMA 0204 offers 10 times higher resistance (5.11 MΩ) compared to previous versions, enabling a single resistor to replace multiple lower-value devices. This improvement saves space, simplifies designs, and reduces costs. The resistors are designed for current sensing in automotive ADAS, LIDAR, connectivity, and camera systems, as well as telecom, industrial, and medical equipment.

Vishay Intertechnology (NYSE: VSH) has introduced the VOR1060M4, a new 1 Form A solid-state relay featuring 600 V load voltage and 3750 VRMS isolation voltage in a compact SOP-4 package. The device offers fast turn-on time of 0.3 ms and low leakage current of 2 nA, making it suitable for energy storage, industrial, and mobility applications.

The relay combines an infrared emitter and photovoltaic diode for safety-critical applications. It's designed for isolated switching in inverters, motor controls, battery management systems, industrial drives, power tools, security systems, and instrumentation. The industrial-grade device is RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green, with samples and production quantities available now with eight-week lead times.
