With a vision to explain the simple application and functioning of semiconductors, Mitsubishi Electric’s Semiconductors & Devices department has initiated a semiconductors and devices lab project across India.
In the first phase, the company prepared educational tools and equipment which has been supplied to two technical institutions; Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies located in Faridabad and PSG College of Technology located in Coimbatore.
In India, semiconductor is a talking point for everybody, but the practical knowledge and information of this segment is very limited, Mitsubishi Electric said in a release.
