STMicroelectronics: New Products and the Competitive Landscape
Electronics360 Editorial Director Bruce Rayner attended this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, where he conducted a series of video interviews with company executives and IHS analysts.
This 11-minute interview is a one-on-one with Benedetto Vigna, executive vice president and general manager of the Analog, MEMS & Sensor Group at STMicroelectronics. Considered the “father MEMS,” Vigna is responsible for over 150 of ST’s patents in MEMS technology. The discussion started with a quick overview of the five new products the company was demonstrating in the show. It then moved on to a discussion about the factors responsible for the company’s leadership position in MEMS and the key MEMS technologies areas Vigna sees as driving growth for STMicroelectronics over the next few years.
