Ericsson is in talks to invest in Intel’s new networking unit, potentially gaining a small stake. The spinoff will focus on advanced silicon for communications infrastructure, aligning with Intel’s broader strategy to streamline operations and prioritize core areas like AI and CPUs.
Nexperia, a leading semiconductor manufacturer, has announced a $200 million investment to enhance its production capabilities at its Hamburg facility. The funds will be used to develop next-generation wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductors, such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), and to expand the production of silicon (Si) diodes and transistors.
