Infineon Technologies, the leading company in the field of semiconductors in Germany, has made a partnership with India’s chip makers in India to benefit from emerging commercial opportunities in South Asia. The partnership aims to support India’s transition to electrical mobility and renewable energy, both of which depend greatly on semiconductors.
India, the world’s most country with more than 1.4 billion people, aims to expand EV penetration from Current 7-8 % to 30 % And increase the generation of non -local energy From 100GW to 500GW by 2030. However, achieving these ambitious goals requires a strong local environmental system for EVS and battery storage solutions that have cost competing with traditional alternatives to pay consumer accreditation. In these sectors, manufacturers are also looking for high -quality inputs at similar prices to maintain low costs. Infineon and CDIL aims to handle all this by linking them.
As part of cooperation, Infineon supplies CDIL chips, which will pack them and assemble them in its facility in the causes of Punjab. The final products of Indian customers will serve in sectors such as Light Evs- including two-wheel electric wheels- and renewable power products such as solar transformers and power storage systems.
Initially, the General Manager of CDIL Prithvideep Singh Techcrunch said that the partnership aims to produce mosfets (field transistors with field effects of metal oxidation), which acts as electronic keys to control the flow of electricity in devices ranging from smart phones to electric cars. However, CDIL plans to expand production using Infineon chips to develop IGBTs (isolated bipolar transistor) over time. These high -voltage electricity components organize EVS and renewable power systems.
The semiconductor packaging facility is currently in CDIL with an annual capacity of 600 million semiconductor units. Both companies believe that this is currently enough, although Singh has noticed that CDIL can expand production based on future demand.
Instead of traditional silicone, semiconductor -producing semiconductors will use materials like silicon and gallium carbide, which provide greater heat resistance and provide more energy density in a small area. CDIL specifically has been working on silicone carbide over the past four years, and has even exported materials to countries including China.
However, Singrunch told that Infineon’s partnership is currently focusing on submitting domestic application.
“The chip is like the engine. It is one important component. Then, of course, you have the rest of the car, so it is a good mixture of both.”
It is worth noting that this is the first partnership for manufacturing in Infineon in India, although the company has a subsidiary in the country for some time and was actively exploring the market during the past few months. The company’s executive managers met with Indian government officials last year to discuss opportunities in semiconductors.
“We believe that India is still in the early stage of the Si curve, but we believe that this market will accelerate greatly in the next few years because many directions begin to overlap … you have electrification and clarify everything,” said Richard Konsic, the first vice president of the General Manager of Authority systems, in an interview with Techcrunch.
Neuiberg, which is taken from Neuiberg, manufactures chips in three main facilities located in Villach (Austria), Dresden (Gemeny) and Kulim (Malaysia).
India looks to become a global center for semiconductors and announces it Billions of dollars in investments In this space last year. However, Infineon does not have immediate plans to create a chip -making site in India. Instead, the company is looking to form additional partnerships in the Indian market to develop its existence.
“We don’t start only five things for that … We are doing one by one,” said Kuncic when asked about potential cooperation with other local players.
