Rohm Co Ltd

Founded in 1940 in Kyoto, Japan, and originally known as Toyo Electronics Industry Corporation before adopting the name ROHM Co., Ltd. in 1981, the company operates as a global manufacturer and distributor of electronic components. Its operations are structured into three primary divisions: Integrated Circuits (ICs), Discrete Semiconductor Devices, and Modules. ROHM's extensive IC portfolio encompasses components for memory, amplification, power management, timing, switching, logic, data conversion, sensing (including MEMS), display and motor control, interface applications, communication (including LSI for speech synthesis), audio/video processing, and microcontrollers. Within the discrete semiconductor category, the company provides MOSFETs, bipolar transistors, and various diodes. Their power device offerings feature power transistors, power diodes, advanced SiC power devices, IGBTs, and Intelligent Power Modules (IPMs). Additionally, ROHM supplies passive components such as resistors, conductive polymer capacitors, and tantalum capacitors. The Modules segment develops wireless communication and charging modules, alongside print heads. Its opto-device range includes LEDs, LED displays, laser diodes, and optical sensors. ROHM also offers commercial products like chipsets and provides foundry services for items such as thin-film piezoelectric MEMS, wafers, and WL-CSP. The diverse array of products from ROHM finds applications across industrial sectors, the automotive industry, and consumer electronics. The firm has forged key alliances, notably with Geely Automobile Group Co., Ltd. for advancing automotive technologies, and with Delta Electronics, Inc. to jointly develop and produce gallium nitride power devices.
