Most Learn – BYD main, Nvidia default, C2i Semiconductors ⋆ Electronics Weekly

Trying solely on the information tales written within the final seven, the most well-liked articles on the positioning cowl BYD regaining the lead in world BEV gross sales, IBM and Arm designing twin structure processor, and AMD’s share of the x86 CPU PC market topping 30%.

And there’s additionally Nvidia being seen as a debt default threat and Infineon shopping for C2i Semiconductors…

So, as is customary, let’s take them in reverse order, in response to Google Analytics:

5. BYD is BEV world chief with Tesla No.2
BYD regained the lead in world BEV gross sales in 2Q26 though gross sales have been beneath final yr’s, studies TrendForce. Tesla dropped to second place regardless of reaching 25% YoY development in world gross sales. Q2 gross sales of EVs — BEVs, PHEVs, and gas cell automobiles — reached 5.37 million items – up 10.4% YoY. China stays the world’s largest EV market.

4. IBM and Arm designing twin structure processor
IBM and Arm are designing a twin structure processor, designed for future IBM Z and LinuxONE techniques. Quite than treating Arm as a separate subsystem, every processor core is designed to natively execute each IBM and Arm directions, permitting Arm and IBM software program environments to coexist throughout the similar enterprise system.

3. AMD takes 30% of x86 PC CPU market; Arm takes 15% of PC CPU market
For the primary time, AMD’s share of the x86 CPU PC market, overlaying each cell and desktop, has topped 30%, in response to Mercury Analysis. AMD’s share was 30.3% in Q2 in opposition to Intel’s 69.7%. Two years in the past it was 21.1%. AMD’s share for desktop CPU shipments had already overtaken 30% in latest quarters, now shipments for pocket book PCs have elevated, pushing the overall quantity up.

2. Might Nvidia Default? [Mannerisms]
It appears unimaginable that an organization which has had the gargantuan success of Nvidia may be seen as a debt default threat. However that’s what is going on. Credit score Default Swaps insuring in opposition to an Nvidia debt default have doubled in worth within the final two months. The concern is that an AI downturn might see the round offers entered into by Nvidia with different AI gamers unravel, leaving Nvidia on the hook.

1. Infineon buys C2i Semiconductors
Infineon has purchased C2i Semiconductors of Bangalore. C2i specialises in software-defined multiphase controllers and good energy phases for AI datacentres functions. “We based C2i Semiconductors with the imaginative and prescient of bringing larger intelligence to energy supply techniques and addressing the rising energy challenges of AI infrastructure,” says Ram Anant (pictured) Founder & CEO of C2i Semiconductors.
