The Penang expansion will support the continued evolution of the company’s extensive portfolio of high-performance, high-reliability passive components designed to meet the different industry demands.
In keeping with the company’s commitment to supporting its multilayer ceramic capacitor customers, VISHAY has announced new reduced lead times for its MLCCs.
The Passive Component Raw Material Index has shown that costs to produce certain types of capacitors and resistors, with emphasis on MLCC and thick film chip resistors, have increased between FY2017 and FY2019
Leading passive components manufacturers will discuss hot products, application notes and latest technology during the 2nd Passive Components Networking Symposium on 11th September 2019 in Bucharest, Romania
“Almost every multilayered ceramic chip capacitor (MLCC) product line saw lead-time increases again in the March 2018 quarter, following a turbulent second half of 2017 where shortages in global ceramic + metal stacking technology continued to plague the global high-tech economy
Major MLCC firms are set to raise their quotes by 40-50% with the new prices to be effective from April 1, according to industry sources. The price rally may have limited impact on EMS and ODM vendors, but will likely become a source of increasing pressure for second-tier device manufacturers such as Sercomm, the sources indicated.
