Dongbu HiTek forms automotive and power network

Dongbu HiTek has unveiled an analogue/power semiconductor ecosystem designed to reduce both time and cost in the development of automotive and power ICs. The Analog POWERhouse Connection has linked Dongbu HiTek's BCDMOS foundry processing with 18 companies involved in the IC supply chain.

By tailoring the ecosystem support to the needs of each customer, Jae Song, vp of sales and marketing at Dongbu, believes it will 'sharpen the company's competitive edge', as well as that of its customers. "We carefully formulated our ecosystem to provide the industry's most efficient and collaborative support for chip designers targeting the automotive and power IC market," said Song. "From providing critical IP access, prototype design/verification and specialised wafer processing to testing and packaging, our Analog POWERhouse specialists deliver superb performance across all critical steps." Song expects the ecosystem to expand from adding new resources from current partners into the supply chain, and by selectively adding new expert partners at strategic locations around the globe.
