Competitors like Infineon and onsemi may resort to aggressive pricing or deeper OEM integration, yet struggle to match Silan’s customization edge in industrial applications. Over the next 18 months, as its 8-inch SiC lines ramp, Silan could shift from cost follower to technology definer—potentially reshaping global standards in high-voltage power devices.
