Hyderabad: Telangana government’s mission is to build a robust and self-sustaining semiconductor ecosystem, says Duddila Sridhar Babu, IT and Industries Minister.
In his address at the launch of the Research & Development (R&D) facility of Allegro MicroSystems, a global leader in magnetic sensing and power IC solutions, here on Friday, he said: “This collaboration with Allegro has the potential to empower local entrepreneurs to localise solutions in battery management, EV powertrains, future mobility, and autonomous vehicle technologies, supporting India’s drive towards an electric vehicle future.”
Recently, Sridhar Babu urged the Centre to set up semiconductor units in Telangana as the State stands ready to lead the semicon revolution and can host global giants like NVIDIA, Qualcomm, and Broadcom.
The facility has already employed nearly 100 highly skilled professionals and plans to scale its headcount to 500 in the near future.
The company said the R&D centre will be a Centre of Excellence (CoE) on analogue and mixed-signal design, verification and validation for the EV, automotive, and robotic automation markets, driving advanced technological development and positioning Hyderabad as a leader in emerging technology solutions. Allegro MicroSystem CEO Vineet Nargolwala stated that Hyderabad’s exceptional talent pool, supportive government policies, and strategic location make it an ideal hub for Allegro MicroSystems’s expansion.
He said Allegro MicroSystems’s decision to expand operations in Hyderabad aligns with the city’s robust infrastructure, skilled talent pool, and supportive government initiatives.
Allegro MicroSystems, a key supplier to top automotive brands like BMW and other leading EV manufacturers, brings valuable expertise in battery management, EV powertrain, future mobility solutions, and autonomous vehicle solutions.
