Infineon (英飞凌) plans to open its $1.44 billion Thai semiconductor facility on October 1, producing power modules for applications including data centers.

The planned October 1 opening covers a semiconductor investment exceeding 48 billion Thai baht. The supplied reports give an approximate dollar equivalent of $1.44 billion. Their attribution is to a Thai Board of Investment press release issued on Friday evening.

The investment includes more than power-module production. The stated scope encompasses power-module manufacturing, semiconductor testing, and a research-and-development center. The modules are intended for electric vehicles, energy systems, and data centers; the source does not identify GPU or CPU manufacturing as part of the project.

Employment is a project expectation rather than a reported current headcount. The facility is expected to employ more than 5,000 local Thai workers. The reports provide no annual production capacity, customer allocation, utilization target, or separate spending breakdown for manufacturing, testing, and research.
