Electronics Manufacturing

Vietnam needs to choose the right development model and invest in advanced equipment to close the technology gap with international experts.

As we enter the 2026–2030 period, wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductor materials such as Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) are transforming the power electronics, electric vehicle (EV/HEV), renewable energy, and AI data center industries. The shift from traditional silicon to SiC and GaN enables higher power density, smaller passive components, and improved overall system energy efficiency.

The increasing density of AI accelerators, high-bandwidth memory, and high-speed interconnects is placing more stringent demands on chip design. Beyond processing capability, chips must maintain signal integrity, operate reliably under heavy loads, and minimize power consumption. Combining high-speed signal measurements, electrical characterization, and power analysis helps engineers identify design limitations early, before hardware is deployed.

The string of solar panels has been isolated, and the technician has completed the Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) procedure; he now stands before a combiner box, clamp meter in hand. A few hundred meters away, a bolt of lightning strikes an open patch of ground—missing the solar panels entirely. Yet, through the very conductor he is currently testing, a voltage surge of several thousand volts has just flashed by in less than a millisecond

In a solar power plant, the most dangerous moment is not when the system is operating at full capacity. Rather, it occurs just before a technician disconnects a connector, replaces a fuse, or opens an inverter cabinet even after the solar string has been isolated

Power integrity requires more than applying simple decoupling-capacitor rules of thumb. As IC processes reach gigahertz levels, lower-speed circuitry also needs more careful consideration.

Power electronics and power integrity aim to deliver suitable voltages, currents, and noise characteristics, yet differences in tools, vocabulary, and figures of merit can hinder alignment.

Clock jitter can interfere with digital circuits, including high-speed ADCs. High-speed clocks may be sensitive to power cleanliness, while quantifying that relationship takes careful effort.
