Rohm CEO: Cooperation with Toshiba power devices may extend from production to development

 


【Lansheng Technology News】ROHM President and CEO Isao Matsumoto said the company hopes to expand its power semiconductor partnership with Toshiba to cover not only production but also development.


Matsumoto said the two companies hope to "discuss cooperation in development" after the joint production of power devices announced earlier is successfully launched.


Matsumotomiya said, "We will start with commissioned production and may enter the next stage. We hope to discuss cooperation in engineer exchanges and development in the future." When asked whether this cooperation may lead to business integration in the future, he responded "No decision has been made yet," he said.


In early December this year, Toshiba and Rohm announced that they would cooperate in the production of power semiconductors to strengthen their power semiconductor business, which is indispensable for electric vehicles (EV). Power semiconductors are used in products that can effectively control motors to reduce power consumption. Electric vehicles and power infrastructure have driven demand for them.


Rohm has a major advantage in electric vehicle components, while Toshiba excels in rail and power applications.


Toshiba and ROHM will produce the products at their respective factories in Ishikawa and Miyazaki prefectures. Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry will provide subsidies of up to 129.4 billion yen (approximately US$913 million) to cover part of the cost of the 388.3 billion yen project.


Toshiba will spend 2 trillion yen to go private on December 20 through a domestic consortium of more than 20 members led by Japan Industrial Partners (JIP) private equity fund. ROHM has joined the investor group and invested 300 billion yen to purchase shares.

What are the Benefits of Power Optimizers?

Image
  Power optimizer for solar panels is a DC/DC converter that is connected to each solar panel in the PV system, turning them into smart modules. By constantly monitoring the maximum production capacity of each individual solar module, optimizers can increase your PV plant energy production – potentially increasing revenue and shortening system payback time. Simply put, the main benefit of power optimizer is that it maximizes the performance of each panel individually. What are the benefits of power optimizers and why are they needed? When installing solar panels, the panels are connected into groups or arrays. In the case of roof-mounted and in-roof panels, there are usually 12-20 solar panels in one group. If the productivity of one of these panels decreases (shadows from trees and clouds, dust, bird droppings, failures of PV components and other factors), then the productivity of the whole group decreases. Defective or shaded panels may produce 15 to 25 percent less solar energy ...

What is a Power Conditioner?

Image
  Looking to protect your sensitive and expensive electronics? Surge protection is a great start, but power conditioners also offer valuable protection for components in entertainment and sound systems, as well as home office devices. What does a power conditioner do that a surge protector can’t? Surge protectors are a great defense against damaging voltage spikes. However more than surges and spikes can effect certain sensitive electronic devices. Radio frequency interference (RFI), electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and voltage fluctuations can also effect sound, entertainment, and office devices, causing a reduction in sound and picture quality. How does it work? Power conditioners act as a buffer between the outlet and your system, smoothing out voltage fluctuations as well as radio and electromagnetic interference that can effect system performance. Initially used in industrial, research and laboratory applications, not long after the introduction of home computer systems, th...
