How the business works

Own fabs, power chips, design-in for years.

  1. 1Own 300 mm and SiC fabs
  2. 2Car and grid platforms
  3. 3Chips for a model's life

Once a chip is designed into a car or inverter platform it ships for years, so manufacturing scale in silicon, silicon carbide and gallium nitride turns into long, sticky revenue.
