Munich, Germany, April 9, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) is playing a vital role to 
support the manufacturing of ventilator devices. Power semiconductors from 
Infineon are essential to reliably and efficiently control the motor of the 
ventilators, including those manufactured by a global leader in medical 
devices, ResMed.

Dr. Helmut Gassel, Member of the Management Board and CMO Infineon Technologies 
AG, said: "We are pleased that we can contribute to support overcoming this 
crisis with around 38 million power semiconductors for producing medical 
ventilators. As the global market leader for these components, we are focusing 
on being able to make these products available on short notice."

Mick Farrell, CEO of ResMed, said: "Infineon's efforts to quickly provide these 
semiconductors are truly lifesaving. ResMed and other ventilator producers can 
only meet the world's demand for these devices if component manufacturers like 
Infineon can meet ours. Thanks to Infineon and others for rising to this 
unprecedented challenge." 

"We are currently experiencing a shift toward medical equipment. Numerous 
manufacturers are expanding or changing their product focus and asking us for 
the necessary components in order to quickly meet the special demand," added 
Dr. Gassel on further requests in this field. 

Infineon has a longstanding expertise and a broad product portfolio in the 
field of battery-operated electric motors. Infineon's power MOSFETs are 
designed in a unique way to bring more efficiency in motor drives, with low 
switching losses, low heat generation and highest reliability in operation. 
Their small and compact design, makes them especially suitable for 
portable/consumer devices.
