PANJIT Group has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Silicongear Corporation and plans to acquire an approximately 30% equity stake, strengthening its capabilities in MOSFET design and supply.
Silicongear specializes in power semiconductor design, particularly MOSFET development. Through this partnership, PANJIT will integrate additional design expertise to enhance its existing MOSFET portfolio, targeting growing demand across automotive, industrial control, and AI-related high-power applications.
Strategically, the collaboration expands PANJIT’s ecosystem of design partners while improving supply flexibility for its 8-inch MOSFET wafer production. This is particularly relevant as the industry faces increasing pressure on supply chain resilience and diversification, especially in mature-node power semiconductor segments.
From a market perspective, this move reflects a broader trend among power semiconductor players to vertically integrate design capabilities and secure upstream partnerships. By combining internal manufacturing strengths with external design innovation, PANJIT aims to improve time-to-market, strengthen competitiveness, and ensure long-term supply reliability.
The partnership also positions PANJIT to better address evolving demand in AI infrastructure and industrial electrification, where robust, cost-efficient silicon-based power devices continue to play a critical role alongside emerging wide bandgap technologies.
