Driven by electric vehicle and renewable energy applications, the power semiconductor market is experiencing rapid growth. Compared to traditional IGBT silicon chips, SiC offers higher efficiency and lower energy consumption under high-temperature and high-voltage conditions. While silicon chips remain dominant in the semiconductor industry, a growing number of high-performance products are shifting towards wide-bandgap materials like compound semiconductors as the foundation for chip design architectures. According toEETimes Asia, the automotive electronics market for SiC power devices is projected to reach nearly4 billion USDby 2026.

As power semiconductor materials advance, new standards for automotive electronics verification are emerging. ECPE AQG 324 has become a critical certification for entering the automotive electronics market. Spirox responses to this market demand by establishing the first power semiconductor dynamic reliability verification laboratory in theAsia-Pacificregion, located in Hsinchu,Taiwanregion. Utilizing equipment from SET GmbH (now part of NI), the lab will provide crucial verification services, helping clients capitalize on market opportunities with faster product development cycles, further enhance their competitiveness in the automotive electronics market.

Paul Yang, CEO of Spirox, highlights the immense potential of the power semiconductor market, emphasizing that theAsia-Pacificregion is poised to experience demand far exceeding other regions. Building on its extensive semiconductor testing knowledge, Spirox's new Power Semiconductor Dynamic Reliability Verification Laboratory will provide essential SiC automotive module verification services during product development. Focusing on DGS/Dynamic HTGB, Dynamic H3TRB/DRB, and IOL and Power Cycling systems, Spirox, a key NI distribution partner for semiconductor testing, will deliver tailored verification and comprehensive equipment solutions, ensuring timely, professional, and reliable after-sales service.

"We are committed to providing flexible testing solutions that enable our customers to manufacture products compliant with stringent safety standards"saidJoseph Soo, NI Vice President of APAC."This continued partnership with Spirox will facilitate accelerated product development timelines for their regional clientele."Spirox's established customer base inTaiwanregionandMainlandChina, along with the professional engineering team, will contribute significantly to the advancement of power semiconductor technology in theAsia-Pacificregion.
