XP Power opens Silicon Valley Design and Innovation Centre
XP Power has opened a Silicon Valley Innovation Centre (SVIC) as its new North America Headquarters.
The 85,000-square-foot facility integrates research and technology development, design engineering, pilot manufacturing, warehousing logistics, and service/support under one roof for XP Power.
The Innovation Centre facilitates rapid development cycles, allowing the company to develop power supplies for the semiconductor, healthcare, military, and industrial sectors.
The facility includes a Reliability Lab with multiple Highly Accelerated Life Test (HALT), Highly Accelerated Stress Screen (HASS) and Environmental Chambers, emphasizing a commitment to reliability.
An etch Plasma Chamber focuses on system validation for semiconductor fabrication equipment, and a 3-meter Anechoic EMC Chamber complements existing EMC compliance test stations to accelerate time-to-market. A dedicated Test Development Team is in place to design custom test equipment for specialized power conversion applications, ensuring products meet the highest standards of performance and quality.
Jay Warner, Executive Vice President of North America, says, “The SVIC’s sophisticated, fully digitalized workstations are globally connected, allowing seamless collaboration among our top talent. Our world-class, follow-the-sun implementation ensures continuous development and problem-solving around the clock, reducing time-to-market and accelerating our customers’ timelines.”
“This investment underscores XP Power’s focus on growth and expansion over the next decade, particularly in the power conversion market’s move into newer technologies enabling the Angstrom era. With extensive research and development labs, we aim to lead the next generation of innovation in power conversion technology.
“As a leader in power conversion technology, XP Power is expanding its market share in medical, industrial, and semiconductor fabrication markets. The new Headquarters exemplifies our commitment to our customers, distributors, and employees. Backed by the strength of our global teams, we are poised to make a major impact on the power conversion market in North America and globally.”
