Mitsubishi Electric is pursuing a September agreement with Toshiba and Rohm to combine their power semiconductor operations, The Japan Times reported. The proposed joint venture would bring together three of the world’s top suppliers in a segment whose demand has risen with the buildout of artificial intelligence infrastructure.
Power-regulation chips have grown more important as advanced systems such as Nvidia’s next-generation Vera Rubin platform increase in complexity and power consumption.
The companies are now working out detailed terms and making adjustments to the planned combination. “Our goal is to integrate sales, manufacturing and development to build one single, robust company,” Mitsubishi Electric Chief Executive Officer Kei Uruma said in an interview.
