SEOUL, eNingizimu Korea, Mashi 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ – I-SK Siltron, umenzi womhlaba wonke wama-wafer e-semiconductor, imemezele namuhla ukuthi isiqedile ukuthengwa kweyunithi ye-Silicon Carbide Wafer (SiC Wafer) yaseDuPont. Ukuthengwa kwanqunywa ngomhlangano webhodi ngoSepthemba futhi kwavalwa ngoFebhuwari 29.
Ukuthengwa kwe- $450 million kubhekwa njengokutshalwa kwezimali kwezobuchwepheshe emhlabeni wonke okunesibindi ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nesidingo sabathengi nohulumeni sezixazululo zamandla ezisimeme kanye nezemvelo. I-SK Siltron izoqhubeka nokutshala imali emikhakheni ehlobene ngisho nangemva kokuthengwa, okulindeleke ukuthi kwandise ukukhiqizwa kwama-wafer e-SiC futhi kudale imisebenzi eyengeziwe e-US Indawo eyinhloko yebhizinisi ise-Auburn, eMich., cishe ngamamayela angu-120 enyakatho yeDetroit.
Isidingo sama-semiconductor kagesi sikhula ngokushesha njengoba abenzi bezimoto bezama ukungena emakethe yezimoto zikagesi kanye nezinkampani zokuxhumana zandisa amanethiwekhi e-5G ashesha kakhulu. Ama-wafer e-SiC anobulukhuni obukhulu, ukumelana nokushisa kanye nekhono lokubekezelela ama-voltage aphezulu. Lezi zici zenza ama-wafer abonakale kabanzi njengento yokukhiqiza ama-semiconductor kagesi ezimoto zikagesi kanye namanethiwekhi e-5G lapho ukusebenza kahle kwamandla kubalulekile khona.
Ngalokhu kuthengwa, i-SK Siltron, eseGumi, eNingizimu Korea, kulindeleke ukuthi ikhulise amakhono ayo ocwaningo nokuthuthukiswa kanye nokukhiqiza kanye nokusebenzisana phakathi kwamabhizinisi ayo amakhulu amanje, ngenkathi ithola izinjini ezintsha zokukhula ngokungena ezindaweni ezikhula ngokushesha.
I-SK Siltron ingumkhiqizi kuphela waseNingizimu Korea wama-silicon wafers e-semiconductor futhi ingenye yabakhiqizi abahlanu abaphezulu emhlabeni wonke abathengisa ama-wafers ngonyaka angu-1.542 trillion won, okubalwa cishe amaphesenti angu-17 okuthengiswa kwama-silicon wafers emhlabeni jikelele (okusekelwe ku-300mm). Ukuze ithengise ama-silicon wafers, i-SK Siltron inezinkampani ezingaphansi kwamanye amazwe namahhovisi ezindaweni ezinhlanu - i-United States, i-Japan, i-China, i-Europe kanye ne-Taiwan. Le nkampani engaphansi kwe-US, eyasungulwa ngo-2001, ithengisa ama-silicon wafers kumakhasimende ayisishiyagalombili, okuhlanganisa i-Intel ne-Micron.
I-SK Siltron iyinkampani esebenzisana ne-SK Group eseSeoul, inkampani yesithathu ngobukhulu eNingizimu Korea. I-SK Group yenze iNyakatho Melika yaba yisikhungo somhlaba wonke, ngokutshalwa kwezimali kwayo e-US ngamabhethri ezimoto zikagesi, imithi ye-biopharmaceuticals, izinto zokwakha, amandla, amakhemikhali kanye ne-ICT, okufinyelela ku-$5 billion ekutshalweni kwezimali e-US eminyakeni emithathu edlule.
Ngonyaka odlule, i-SK Holdings yathuthukisa umkhakha wezokwelapha ngemithi ngokusungula i-SK Pharmteco, umkhiqizi wezithako ezisebenzayo kwezokwelapha, eSacramento, eCalif. NgoNovemba, i-SK Life Science, inkampani engaphansi kwe-SK Biopharmaceuticals enamahhovisi eParamus, e-NJ, yathola imvume ye-FDA ye-XCOPRI® (amaphilisi e-cenobamate) yokwelapha ukuquleka okungaphelele kubantu abadala. I-XCOPRI kulindeleke ukuthi itholakale e-US kwikota yesibili yalo nyaka.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-SK Holdings ibilokhu itshala imali emikhakheni ye-shale energy G&P (Ukuqoqwa Nokucubungula) yase-US, okuhlanganisa i-Brazos ne-Blue Racer, kusukela nge-Eureka ngo-2017. I-SK Global Chemical ithole amabhizinisi e-ethylene acrylic acid (EAA) kanye ne-polyvinylide (PVDC) ku-Dow Chemical ngo-2017 futhi yanezela amabhizinisi amakhemikhali anenani eliphezulu. I-SK Telecom ithuthukisa isisombululo sokusakaza esisekelwe ku-5G ne-Sinclair Broadcast Group futhi inamaphrojekthi e-esports ahlangene ne-Comcast kanye ne-Microsoft.
