Power300: the success story continues

The best example for the recipe for success of the innovation factory Villach is the world's first production of power semiconductors in 300-millimeter thin wafer technology. These particularly thin energy-saving chips ensure even more efficient energy conversion in electronic systems. At the same time, mass production is made much more productive. And the success story continues.

A milestone in European industry history

By investing around €1.6 billion in a new, fully-automated chip factory for the production of 300-millimeter thin wafers at the Villach site, Infineon is laying the foundations for long-term, profitable growth in the field of power semiconductors. The official opening took place on 17 September 2021. When operating at full capacity, it is estimated to have an additional revenue potential of around €1.8 billion per year. Around 400 additional jobs will be created for highly-qualified employees.
