Infineon Technologies was formally established on April 1, 1999 in Munich, Germany, and is one of the world's leading semiconductor companies. Its predecessor was the semiconductor division of the Siemens Group, which became independent in 1999.
Infineon provides semiconductor and system solutions for the three major technological challenge areas of modern society - energy efficiency, mobility and security.
Infineon is one of the leading suppliers to the automotive industry, serving a wide range of automotive applications, providing semiconductors and system solutions for automotive and industrial power devices, chip cards and security applications. Infineon's products are known for their high reliability, quality and innovation, and they hold cutting-edge technologies in the fields of analog and mixed-signal, radio frequency, power and embedded controls.
Infineon's products mainly include industrial power control, intelligent low-end and high-end switches, DC-DC converters, AC-DC power conversion, solid state relays, intelligent power modules, microcontrollers, radio frequency and wireless control, etc. Users provide semiconductor application solutions, etc.
In 2022, Infineon will complete the acquisition of Triplus Semiconductor, which will not only continue to maintain its global leadership in the field of power semiconductors and safety controllers, but will also become the world's largest supplier of automotive semiconductors .
Cypress mainly provides embedded solutions for automotive, industrial, consumer electronics, etc., with a differentiated product portfolio of microcontrollers, connectivity components, software systems, and high-performance memory.
Infineon has great advantages in power semiconductors, automotive microcontrollers, sensors and other fields, and the two are highly complementary in product lines.
