Dongbu Electronics Enters Exciting Growth Phase; Newly Branded Dongbu Electronics Envisions Becoming a Preferred Semiconductor Partner for Flat Panel and Mobile Handset Manufacturers Worldwide.SEOUL, South Korea -- Dongbu Electronics (KSE KSE Karachi Stock Exchange KSE Kuwait Stock Exchange KSE Korea Stock Exchange KSE Kernel Scheduler Entities KSE Kill Switch Engage (band) KSE Kuat Systems Engineering (Star Wars) :001830), formerly DongbuAnam Semiconductor, today announced that it has entered an exciting new growth phase that focuses on delivering best-in-class specialty chip solutions for high-volume markets. Adding the slogan "Specialty Solution Partner in Display & Mobile" to its new name, the Korean company continues to make strategic investments to emerge as the preferred semiconductor partner for both flat panel display A thin display screen for computer and TV usage. The first flat panels appeared on laptop computers in the mid-1980s, and the LCD technology became the standard. Stand-alone LCD screens became available for desktop computers in the mid-1990s and exceeded sales of CRTs for the first time and mobile handset manufacturers worldwide. "In addition to strengthening our brand recognition, our new name also signals the complete integration of Anam Semiconductor operations into the Dongbu Electronics infrastructure," said Jae Song, Dongbu's EVP EVP Executive Vice President EVP EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) Valve Position Sensor EVP Electronic Voice Phenomenon EVP Europäische Volkspartei (Germany) EVP Employee Value Proposition of Strategic Business Development. "We're confident that the Dongbu brand will continue to be highly regarded among fabless and integrated device manufacturers seeking top-quality specialized processing to implement CMOS Image Sensor A CMOS-based chip that records the intensities of light as variable charges similar to a CCD chip. Although initially used in less expensive digital cameras, the quality of CMOS sensors has improved steadily. CMOS sensors have advantages over CCDs. (CIS Cis (sĭs), same as Kish (1.)
