Renesas decides to phase out production at its Takasaki factory
Renesas announced a decision to gradually end manufacturing at the Takasaki 6-inch wafer factory within the next two to three years while maintaining and strengthening local analog and power-semiconductor R&D.
Why it matters
The decision removes an aging 6-inch manufacturing site over time while preserving R&D activity, but the production phaseout is gradual and the factory was not immediately closed at announcement.
