Although the global economy is full of uncertainty in 2023, the overall economic situation is uncertain, and smartphone shipments are also quite bleak, the 5G application field of non-mobile phones has quite clear growth momentum in the past few years. As the leader in the global 5G communication module market, Fibocom has already made a fairly comprehensive layout.@Redcap Communications About to Enter Commercial Stage to Play a Crucial Part in 5G ApplicationsFibocom CEOTiger Ying said that according to their observations, global FWA (Fixed Wireless Access) technology still has a fair amount of growth momentum, mainly due to telecom service providers actively transferring from 4G to 5G communications technology. A secondary reason is that the number of existing 4G network connections is quite limited. Moving to 5G is thus the inevitable for the overall telecom market's development. Therefore, Fibocom believes that the RedCap (Reduced Capability) technology, as recently provided in version 3GPP Rel.17, will bring about energetic development in existing 5G vertical applications. One example is in the field of Internet of Things (IoT). RedCap can realize 5G network service capabilities in high-speed IoT scenarios and bring lightweight 5G into a larger number of application scenarios. Even the 4G LTE technology we see in the notebook market could see the presence of RedCap.Just days ago, Fibocom attended COMPUTEX 2023, where it released its FG132-NA series 5G RedCap communication module. Fibocom is not the only one to do so, as many suppliers have purportedly displayed this technology at MWC 2023. It is expected that RedCap will enter the commercial stage in the second half of 2024, and Fibocom will be there.@With Actually Lower Tariffs, Excellent Information Security and Superb Power Consumption, Demand for 5G Connected Laptops Is Set to IncreaseOn the development of 5G-connected laptops, Ying added his personal observation that tariffs on 5G in the early stage of commercial use will be quite daunting, but with the popularization of 5G networks, tariffs will become lower, and consumer acceptance of 5G laptops will gradually increase. The reason for this is, of course, not limited to the immediate convenience of the laptop, but also information security. For example, the information security of the SIM card is higher than that on Wi-Fi, and the power consumption performance is also improving apace. In addition, when laptops can use 5G to connect to the Internet, consumers who unfortunately lose their laptops can also find them through 5G positioning technology--something that Wi-Fi technology cannot do.Although conditions in the global notebook market for 2023 are extremely poor, Ying believes that the notebook market could gradually improve in the second half of the year. And as we enter 2024, we will see the first wave of notebook replacements since the post-epidemic era. And with needs for realtime work and entertainment, demand for 5G-connected laptops will jump even higher.@Increased Demand for Digital Transformation Drives Vertical Application Scenarios to Upgrade to 5G Network TechnologyDriven by the global demand for digital transformation, demand for 5G networks has seen an increase in many vertical application fields. According to Fibocom's latest quarterly financial report, revenue has grown by more than 50% YOY, all due to the benefits brought about by digital transformation of vertical applications. Ying was candid, saying that they did see a decline this year in the performance of some consumer applications. Still, in fields like the field of Internet of Vehicles (IoV), Fibocom is actively deploying into global automotive market, and has gradually become the world's leading supplier of automotive-grade wireless communication modules. In fact, the automotive sector was the fastest growing segment in the last quarter.In response to an unimpressive global economy and slack in demand, many companies will be taking advantage of the situation to meet the needs of digital transformation through investment. In particular, many industrial computer companies in Taiwan are also quite active in relocation and transformation. For example, smart devices such as handheld PDAs and inspection robots required for daily operations and inspections in industrial factories and power infrastructure require integration of CPU and GPU with smart modules to instantly return high-quality images that are used to determine causes of failures and use that determination to improve productivity. In addition, the recently popular ChatGPT has caused the market to have different visions of the digital world, Ying revealed. Therefore, in the future, the demand for algorithms, information security, and computing power required for wireless communication will inevitably increase. This is the market opportunity that Fibocom sees for the future, and Fibocom is well-prepared to embrace the intelligent digitalization by offering smart module series that integrating the AI capabilityOverall, with increasing demand for digital transformation, demand for 5G in many vertical applications will also increase. And with the assistance of compact and highly integrated 5G communications modules, digital transformation will accelerate. It may even be said that 5G communications modules will be a crucial cornerstone in the development of the digital economy.Fibocom attended COMPUTEX 2023, where it released its FG132-NA series 5G RedCap communication module. Fibocom is not the only one to do so, as many suppliers have purportedly displayed this technology at MWC 2023.

Industrial Ethernet network switches, for example, are a primary product revenue for the company. This type of products does not usually come with a power supply. It always recommends its customers to use its products with an industrial-grade power supply, which is a MEAN WELL product.Kent Kang said, "With MEAN WELL power supply solutions, we no longer have to worry about power stability. Moreover, MEAN WELL products have passed various certifications. They are proven not to cause any EMI interference when devices are in operation. Our customers have opted to use them for a long time and they have accustomed to using MEAN WELL power supply with our devices. After all, they are the most effective add-on. Our one-stop shopping experience has managed to save our customers a lot of hassle." Throughout a 20-year partnership with MEAN WELL, the sales volume of PLANET's industrial Ethernet network switches has continued to climb, showing nearly ten-fold growth.PLANET showcased the world's first renewable energy PoE solution for intelligent network management at COMPUTEX 2023, which generates electricity using renewable energy to supply power for PoE network. The solution is able to resolve issues pertaining to power consumption of network and safety monitoring systems in remote areas.Participating in Powered by MEAN WELL Co-marketing ProgramNot only Ethernet network switches come with such power supply solutions, PLANET has many other product lines which collaborate with MEAN WELL. Meanwhile, via the PBM program rolled out by MEAN WELL, both companies have much room for cooperation in marketing. PBM is an abbreviation for Powered by MEAN WELL. The program invites MEAN WELL's clients who agree with its brand spirit to become its long-term reliable partners. As part of a cooperative marketing strategy, the program works to accomplish product promotion and achieve win-win together. Execution of the program includes trademark authorization where clients are authorized to use the Powered by MEAN WELL trademark for exhibition exposure, online coverage, and joint media campaigns.Jenny Hsieh, a key accounts manager at MEAN WELL Group, explained, "We have created the 'MEAN WELL Premium Partner Zone' on our website to help customers find partners according to a catalog by industry or region. For example, the information and communication technology (ICT) category will lead one to PLANET Technology Corporation, a long-time partner of MEAN WELL."Jenny Hsieh opines that the PBM cooperative marketing strategy rolled out by MEAN WELL is a very meaningful project. "PLANET and MEAN WELL both have their own brands. Our marketing goals and target are in line with each other. We both hope to promote premium brands from Taiwan. Trademark authorization, exhibition exposure, and other techniques are really helpful in elevating brand recognition."Calling on Everyone to Promote SustainabilityBesides business partners, PLANET and MEAN WELL are also charity partners. For example, MEAN WELL was keen to join a sustainability action project called "Clean Air for Health," which PLANET advocates. This project promotes the use of bacteria to break down rice stalks instead of straw burning. This can prevent air pollution and other hazards caused by haze. It is an extensive solution for resolving air pollution and reducing carbon emissions. It can also improve fertility and organic properties of soil to promote sustainability. To date, more than 200 businesses have joined this project since it was first launched in 2022. The total surface area of adopted rice fields has amounted to 7,800 hectares.Chloe Hsu, Manager of the Marketing Department at PLANET Technology Corporation, said that participants of the project are individuals or businesses who agree to adopt rice fields. "Almost all PLANET employees have participated in the adoption. We're also very grateful toward MEAN WELL, which not only adopts a rice field under the company name, many of its employees have also participated in the adoption as individuals." For the project, decomposing bacteria is expected to be discharged after rice crop is harvested in June and July. At that time, individuals and businesses who participate in the adoption will be invited to witness their environmental protection beliefs put into sustainable action."We'd like to take this opportunity to ask more businesses to join in the adoption event. We are excited to work more closely with local farmers to promote sustainable agriculture and environmental protection," said Chloe Hsu. PLANET has also long advocated for activities like adopting organic tea plantations in Pinglin and sponsoring underprivileged children.Likewise, MEAN WELL has spared no effort in promoting environmental sustainability and social welfare. Since 2011, MEAN WELL has held its annual "I love the Tamsui River" event to promote river conservation. Meanwhile, they also encourage their employees to sign up for volunteer service to take concrete actions to give back to society. As such, in 2019, the company established the MEAN WELL Charitable Foundation to give donations, subsidize replacing old lighting equipment, and set up community centers.In preparation for the ESG era, MEAN WELL continues to implement sustainable ideas as part of product research and development, e.g., energy recycling products that customers very well receive. Kent Kang said, "The product testing process is very power-consuming. Recycling a portion of the electricity helps cut carbon emissions." Providing these products allows MEAN WELL to support a broad spectrum of sectors in achieving zero carbon emissions. MEAN WELL works to stand hand in hand with supply chain partners and customers collectively to create a better environment for the next generation.

iCatch Technology, a leading Taiwan-based AI image processing IC design company, is excited to expand the application of its highly acclaimed CR3 automotive AI Imaging SoC into camera monitoring system (CMS) market. As cameras being widely adopted on cars for passive driving assistance systems, such as surround view systems and rearview cameras, car makers also start to replace conventional physical rearview mirrors with cameras and displays for better visibility. The CR3 SoC is capable of processing multiple camera inputs simultaneously with ultra-low latency which makes it a perfect solution for CMS application.CMS utilizes strategically positioned cameras on both sides of the vehicle to capture and process real-time images. These images are then displayed on a central control screen or independent displays, providing drivers with a wider field of view compared to traditional rearview mirrors. By eliminating blind spots caused by limited mirror size and vehicle structure, CMS offers an improved perspective of the vehicle's surroundings. New regulatory standards, such as European Union's ECE R46 and Taiwan's VSCC regulations ensure that vehicles equipped with CMS meet stringent visibility, reliability, and safety requirements.Camera Monitoring SystemPhoto: iCatch TechnologyiCatch Technology's automotive-grade CR3 SoC supports up to four video inputs and can output videos to displays through multiple interfaces, such as MIPI or LVDS. The CR3 SoC is also equipped with recording functionality, which can leverage the existing cameras of the CMS and record the video streams to function as a video black box. The built-in USB 3.2 high-speed interface can connect to the infotainment system to enable fast downloading and video playback of recorded video files. Regarding image visibility, the CR3 SoC's image processing engine supports high dynamic range (HDR) of up to 140dB and LED flicker mitigation (LFM) and is able to reduce the video latency to less than 30ms which is significantly lower than the standards set by CMS regulations in various countries. The built-in de-warp engine corrects image distortion caused by wide-angle lenses and can dynamically adjust the camera field of view based on the user scenario. In addition, with the built-in video digital signal processor (DSP) and neural processing unit (NPU), the CR3 SoC can accurately identify vehicles, motorcycles and pedestrians and send out warnings to the driver under emergency situations to prevent accidents.iCatch Technology's AI imaging solutions have gained significant traction in the automotive market, with successful adoption by renowned brands in the dashcam and e-mirror sectors.

Cloud service platforms form part of the key strategy for emerging semiconductor distributors to succeed with new business models. Sourceability, relying on its Sourcengine platform and Quotengine software system, assists customers in completing the procurement process for electronic components and helps them get a handle on dynamic information on such things as price, inventory, and product specifications for key components. It also helps customers get the most favorable procurement cost in the midst of here-today-gone-tomorrow business opportunities and thus expand their chances of success in the market. Sourceability's effectiveness has allowed it to build up high-paced revenue growth over the past few years and gradually gain a firm foothold in the market. Through its expansion in the Asia-Pacific market, it is expected to assist local customers and supply chains achieve digital transformation and innovation in electronic component procurement.Founded in the United States in 2015, Sourceability is an emerging distributing company that built an e-commerce marketplace platform focusing on electronic parts and components. Mr. Yashar Shahabi, Sourceability's Senior VP of Digital Solutions, said in an exclusive interview that Sourceability built its marketplace – Sourcengine, through a digital platform system. It greatly enables industry by establishing a business model that can span global semiconductor channels and markets through navigation of data-driven technology. Thanks to big data analysis technologies, it helps customers start an automated system, from the collection of a large amount of transaction and market data. With the key technologies needed to process huge amounts of data, it has built a global e-commerce platform for semiconductor channels and supply chains to allow customers to get a handle of the rhythm of rapid market shifts.Shahabi cited two very successful examples in dealing with change by using the Sourceability e-commerce platform as proof of its effectiveness. The first, it is crucial support at critical times when the shortage of passive components puts the business world in dire straits, and that it solves subsequent operational risks in long and short materials caused by supply-and-demand imbalances. The other is the large shortage of automotive chips that is still fresh in everyone's mind, a shortage that led to the breaking of the automotive supply chain. At both junctures, Sourceability clients saw the benefits of sharing transparent information across digital platform tools, and that, in turn, allowed them to become digital transformation success stories.Innovation solves customers' issues of data optimization in electronics procurementWith Sourceability's software tool – Quotengine, the client can submit the BOM of electronic products, and then, after using the Excel file to import hundreds of materials in batches, the cloud platform can immediately analyze the manufacturer material numbers, quantity, demand, and other data. The big data analysis function of Sourceability allow customers to search through more than 1 billion chips and electronic components of various types and functions, get quotes, quantities, and delivery dates by category, and get analysis reports within minutes, assisting the supply chain to complete batch order procurement and a full range of other services.Mr. Kevin Wang, Sourceability's Managing Director for APAC, pointed out that major European and American electronics manufacturers have run into the various risks, such as rush order effect, supply chain disruption, and interruption of international logistics and transportation caused by the pandemic. In particular, he noted irrational behaviors, such as repeated orders from a large number of electronic component buyers. But by using the analytic tools provided by Sourceability, material procurement and drafting of a rapid response plan are completed quickly and with extremely pared-down manpower, usually in observation intervals of minutes or hours. This allows the customer to stay up to date on market changes, greatly improving their procurement decisions for key components.Furthermore, using Sourceability's Sourcengine platform to launch countermeasures that can assist in the hunt for replacement parts and products will also generate quick benefits. The automobile industry is already well aware of the major crises and risks in the industry overall caused by supply-and-demand imbalances for semiconductor products. Using the data insights of component specifications and functions on the Sourcengine platform, assists the upstream product design end to start sharing data, creating a supply-chain ecology where supply and demand are regulated.In fact, some mainstream European and American chip manufacturers, considering the trend of the gradual decline in the value of agents, have also tried to expand their sales channels of chips by breaking through regional agency rights. Therefore, the Marketplace also has the opportunity to shine like other consumer products on the e-commerce platform. Once the trend of information transparency and real-time transactions matures, online business opportunities will have more chances for success. Whether certain channels can make money depends entirely on the value of their providing differentiated services. The value of data is the most important driving force for Sourceability's insistence on its business model of the digitally transformed online marketplace and for its continued expansion in the Asian market.Sourceability will continue to develop its technology platform backed by big data analysis to provide customers in Taiwan and Asia with multi-channel price and market integrated information services. Along with considerate services, such as logistics, warehousing, and financing, Sourceability strives to bring the good experience in digital channels that European and American customers have had to the Asia-Pacific market. At present, Sourceability has three distribution warehouses: in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Miami, USA. It has established offices and branches in many cities and regions in Taiwan and China. In 2023, it will continue setting up branches in such markets as South Korea, Japan, Vietnam to continue to expand its business in Asia.
