Taiwan-based discrete component maker Lite-On Semiconductor is in talks with several smartphone and tablet vendors over orders for slim diode bridge rectifiers for chargers, according to industry sources in Taiwan.
Lite-On has invested more than NT$500 million (US$16.8 million) to set up a monthly production capacity of 50 million slim diode bridge rectifiers of 1.2mm in thickness and 1-1.2A in power density, the sources said.
Lite-On has also been competing for orders for slim diode bridge rectifiers for use in LED lighting from Europe-based vendors, the sources noted.
Lite-On Semiconductor is the global largest producer of diode bridge rectifiers with a global market share of over 20%, the sources indicated. The company has begun shipping diode bridge rectifiers for Xbox One and Play Station 4, the sources added.
