Analog Devices Further Strengthens its South-East Asia Operations with New Singapore Facility
Analog Devices, Inc., a global semiconductor leader, announced the
launch of a new state-of-the-art, environmentally friendly, 38,951 sq. ft.
facility in Singapore. Located within the Kallang Industrial Park, the facility
is planned to serve as a central hub for the more than 200 employees working in
Singapore in key divisions of the company, including research and development,
test engineering, sales, and manufacturing. ADI established its first location
in Singapore in 1995 and has steadily grown its operations and workforce since
then. This new strategic investment aligns with the company's global expansion
plans, which include enhancing its capabilities in the Asia Pacific region.
“Our new facility is an important milestone in ADI’s global growth
strategy,” said Jerry Fan, President of Asia for ADI. “Enhancing our capabilities in Singapore
is vital to leveraging the country’s superb talent pool and advanced
manufacturing capabilities to serve our regional and global customers’ needs.
Our investment reinforces ADI’s presence within Singapore’s thriving
semiconductor ecosystem, which is supported by the nation’s digital growth
initiatives.”
The new facility features a more
spacious and advanced laboratory to foster interaction between the research and
development team as well as customers in the region. Through this forum for the
exchange of ideas, ADI and its customers plan to deepen their collaboration and
deliver innovative products for the Intelligent Edge. In addition, a dedicated
space has been allocated for test development purposes within the new facility,
custom-tailored to accommodate multiple automated test equipment (ATE)
stations. These on-site testing stations are designed to enable faster initial
testing of ADI’s state-of-the-art products and accelerate the timeline of ADI
engineering’s ability to meet customers’ toughest challenges.
Fan continued, “Customer intimacy, business strategy, engineering
processes, manufacturing capabilities, and problem-solving are essential for
creating long-term value for our customers. We are confident the environment
within our new facility will help us deliver the kind of innovation that leads
to breakthrough products and services, and we believe it will have a lasting
impact on the region’s ongoing digital transformation journey.”
Location selection and build criteria for the site prioritized
accessibility and sustainability. The new office is bicycle-friendly, close to
public transportation, and is directly accessible via expressways. Recyclable
materials were used throughout construction, and energy efficient AC, lighting,
and water systems are all part of its advanced building automation system. Low
carbon footprint materials were an integral part of the biophilic interior
design. The office building is Green Mark
Platinum-certified and expected to get LEED Gold certification by July 2023.
