world-leading manufacturer of passive components
Yageo provides customers with comprehensive passive component solutions that include such products as SMD resistors, inductors, multi-layer ceramic capacitors, and multi-layer chip varistors. Back in 1977 Yageo leveraged its competitive advantages in mass production economies of scale and cost control to blaze new trails in the precision resistor field, and build the foundation for continued success in the PC era. But with the arrival of the post-PC era, and the trend toward miniaturization and shorter product cycles for consumer electronics and telecommunication applications, it became clear that future growth would demand globalization, and the ability to become part of customer supply chains through enhanced service.
