Mitsubishi Materials targets six times 2025 capacity for optical-communications thermistors
Mitsubishi Materials (MMC) plans to expand chip thermistor production for optical communications at its Samut Prakan facility in Thailand. It targets monthly capacity of 12 million units by November 2027, six times the 2025 level. Growing AI adoption is increasing data-center workloads and demand for high-speed optical I/O, driving demand for optical transceivers and thermistors.
What to know
- 01
The chip thermistors measure less than 1 mm and provide precise, reliable temperature monitoring to help maintain optical transceiver communication quality.
- 02
The company aims to use the additional capacity to meet rising demand, provide steady supplies and win new customers and projects.
Why it matters
The planned expansion is linked to rising demand for high-speed optical I/O and optical transceivers as AI adoption grows.
