Diodes 公司 (纳斯达克股票代号：DIOD) 今天宣布 Diodes 公司已和安森美(onsemi)达成最终协议，收购安森美位于缅因州南波特兰的晶圆制造设施 (即「南波特兰晶圆厂」)，但协议的条款并未被公布。
南波特兰晶圆厂 (SPFAB) 为Diodes 公司的模拟产品提供了额外的 200mm 晶圆厂产能，可以增加 Diodes 公司在汽车产业和工业终端市场的成长动能。加上亚洲和欧洲既有的晶圆制造厂，座落于美国的这座工厂，可以进一步提升 Diodes 公司的全球生产运营。
Diodes 公司董事长、总裁兼执行长卢克修博士表示：「我们公司未来几年的策略目标是大幅提高收入跟利润，收购南波特兰晶圆厂恰恰符合此目标。厂内团队的卓越工程能力与技能，不但可以达到我们对技术和营运绩效的预期，对 Diodes 大家庭更是如虎添翼。此外，SPFAB 加入后，还可以让 Diodes 公司扩充产能并提升内部制造的灵活性，满足客户不断增长的需求，在这种供应有限的环境下，更加增强Diodes 公司的竞争优势。我们对本次收购，以及收购对未来技术发展路径图的重要性，感到满腔热忱。」
南波特兰晶圆厂交易的完成，必须符合惯例成交条件，预计将在 2022 年第二季度完成。成交后，南波特兰晶圆厂的运营和员工将会整合至 Diodes 公司旗下。
