During the PCIM Asia 2024 conference in Shenzhen, China (28–30 August), fabless company Wise-integration of Hyeres, France (which was spun off from CEA-Leti in 2020) has launched the subsidiary Wise-integration Ltd — based in the Hong Kong Science and Technology Park (HKSTP) and led by James Ho as China business development director — to accelerate its growing business in China.
In addition to serving as its financial hub for regional transactions and boosting its presence generally in the Asian market, the firm reckons that the subsidiary will enable it to take advantage of business opportunities in China.
“Asian companies are interested in partnering with Wise-integration to integrate our novel power-control technologies,” says Wise-integration’s CEO Thierry Bouchet. “With this Hong Kong-based subsidiary, we will focus on new opportunities in China, especially the premium consumer SMPS, light industrial, motor-control, light e-transportation and e-automotive markets.”
Since its launch in 2020, Wise-integration has built a portfolio of more than 10 patent families with two product lines. WiseGan encompasses gallium nitride (GaN) power integrated circuits designed to maximize the benefits of GaN technology, including higher power density, efficiency and reduced heat generation. WiseWare is a 32-bit, MCU-based AC-DC digital controller optimized for GaN-based power supply architectures. It is said to offer simplified system design, a lower bill of materials and improved power density and efficiency.
In the past two years, Wise-integration has announced partnerships with companies in South Korea and Taiwan to help bring its technologies to those markets. Product markets include consumer electronics and industrial applications like robotics, as well as data centers and electric vehicles. All of its solutions address the increasing demands for miniaturization, electrification and efficient power management.
At the end of February, Wise-integration announced a Series B financing round that raised €15m to “fuel mass production and commercial deployment of the firm’s flagship products… and its support for clients globally as they adopt these solutions”.
At PCIM Asia the firm is showcasing its products — WiseGan GaN IC, WiseWare 32-bit, MCU-based digital controller and demo boards — in booth C44 (Hall 11).
