ROHM completes acquisition of Solar Frontier’s Kunitomi Plant

What happened

ROHM Semiconductor has completed its acquisition of Solar Frontier's former Kunitomi Plant, a facility covering 400,000m² with 230,000m² of floor space. The acquisition is part of ROHM's strategy to significantly expand its SiC power semiconductor production capacity to meet rising demand. Watch: This major capacity expansion could ease long-term supply constraints for SiC power devices, but the immediate trading impact is uncertain pending production ramp details.
