ON Semiconductor: Powering the EV Highway
ON Semiconductor provides the silicon carbide MOSFETs (which are semiconductors that switch or supply voltages) for electric vehicle components for EV drive trains, such as traction inverters, DC/DC inverters, on-board chargers, fast chargers and energy storage applications. ON is Aehr’s number one customer because they must test silicon carbide semiconductors for failures before supplying silicon carbide-based powertrains and charging systems for key Electric Vehicle OEMs, such as Tesla, Volkswagen, Mercedes Benz, Nio and BMW. EliteSiC is the portfolio of SiC products that ON provides to popular EV OEMs to increase electric power train efficiency and extend EV range. Of the estimated $8.13 billion in revenue that On Semi is expected to report this year FY2023, $1 billion is from silicon carbide components. This is up 5X from 2022. In Q1, the SiC revenue doubled from Q4.
