PROFILE |
 |
Diodes Incorporated is very discrete about its business. The company manufactures discrete semiconductors -- fixed-function devices that are much less complex than integrated circuits. Diodes' discretes are used by the electronics, automotive, computing, and telecommunications markets in the US (about 55% of sales) and Asia. The company makes hundreds of products (including diodes, transistors, and rectifiers) that vary in voltage, current, and switching speeds. It has manufacturing units in China and the US. For a time Diodes operated as joint venture Vishay Lite-On Power Semiconductor; it changed its name back in 2000 when Lite-On bought Vishay's stake. Lite-On owns 38% of Diodes.
