Nexperia is a global semiconductor company headquartered in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, with a workforce exceeding 12,500 employees across Europe, Asia, and the United States. It specializes in developing and manufacturing essential semiconductors—such as small-signal discretes, power discretes, analog and logic ICs, diodes, transistors, and MOSFETs—that form the foundational components for virtually every electronic device worldwide. These components are critical in various sectors including automotive, industrial, mobile, consumer electronics, and computing, enabling basic functionality in products ranging from electric vehicles to home appliances[1][2][3]. With over 70 years of experience and more than 200 patent families, Nexperia ships over 110 billion semiconductor units annually and has a strong global market share (approximately 9.7% as of 2024). The company is known for its efficient, compact, and power-saving designs, which contribute to extending electric vehicle ranges and reducing charger sizes. Nexperia continuously innovates, launching over 800 new products annually and investing heavily in research and development, with $106 million reported in 2024. The company maintains stringent quality and environmental standards, holding certifications such as IATF 16949, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001[1][2][3]. Historically, Nexperia has a rich European heritage and operates five factories globally, maintaining a highly efficient supply chain to meet growing customer demands. It holds leadership positions in several semiconductor categories, including small-signal diodes, ESD protection devices, and automotive-grade PowerMOSFETs[1][2]. Recently, Nexperia has faced geopolitical challenges impacting its supply chain. The Dutch government seized control of the company and dismissed its Chinese CEO amidst tensions, causing industry concern over potential disruptions. Since most of Nexperia’s manufacturing occurs in China, export restrictions imposed by Chinese authorities have threatened global supply, especially affecting automotive manufacturer
