ON Semiconductor has expanded its network of Solutions Engineering Centers (SEC) with the opening of a new SEC facility in China. Located within the company's existing Shanghai campus, the new SEC will drive new automotive product initiatives and expand the company's local service capabilities by providing on-site technical expertise.

The China SEC will focus on the development of advanced energy efficient solutions for a variety of automotive applications including body, HVAC, powertrain, safety, infotainment and LED lighting. It will provide development platforms and local product support to better service customers who design and manufacture electronic automotive sub-systems in the Asia Pacific region.

Establishing an automotive-focused SEC in Shanghai further demonstrates ON Semiconductor's commitment to business in China and to strengthening relationships with key automotive customers throughout Asia Pacific."
