Littelfuse Wuxi Fab

Overview

Littelfuse Semiconductor (Wuxi) Co., Ltd., in the Wuxi New District (Shuofang), Jiangsu, China, was built next to a plant Littelfuse had acquired via its May 2006 purchase of Concord Semiconductor. The roughly $16 million wafer fab began production in the first quarter of 2009, replacing 6-inch (150mm) wafers Littelfuse previously sourced externally for its former Irving, Texas semiconductor operation with its own 5-inch (125mm) line; assembly and test work was consolidated to the same Wuxi campus from Littelfuse's Matamoros, Mexico plant around the same period. The site fabricates transient-voltage-suppressor (TVS) diodes, thyristors, and SIDACtors.
