## Business segments

Vishay Intertechnology reports six product-based business segments: MOSFETs, which are solid-state switches that control power; Diodes, which route, regulate, or block signals and can provide surge, ESD, or EMI protection; and Optoelectronic Components, which emit or detect light. The company also reports Resistors, used to adjust and regulate voltage and current; Inductors, which use magnetic fields to affect alternating current; and Capacitors, which store and discharge energy. The same six-segment structure is reported in the 2026 second-quarter filing. [27](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P60880072)[28](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T11384469)[22](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T16750805)

Based on FY2025 segment revenue, the approximate contributions were: Resistors 24.7% ($759.3 million); MOSFETs 20.5% ($630.5 million); Diodes 19.3% ($592.8 million); Capacitors 16.5% ($505.6 million); Inductors 11.9% ($364.4 million); and Optoelectronic Components 7.1% ($216.6 million). Percentages are calculated from reported total segment revenue of $3,069.0 million. [21](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T7075325)

## Company history

Vishay Intertechnology was founded in 1962 by Felix Zandman, whose work on PhotoStress led to the development of Bulk Metal foil resistors; the company’s early products also included foil strain gages. [29](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P55034958)[30](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P75708129) Beginning in 1985, Vishay expanded through acquisitions of passive-component businesses, including Draloric (1987), Sprague’s tantalum-capacitor division (1992), Roederstein (1993) and Vitramon (1994). [31](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P60185388)[32](https://www.vishay.com/en/company/brands/draloric/)[33](https://www.vishay.com/en/company/brands/sprague/)[34](https://www.vishay.com/en/company/brands/roederstein/)[35](https://www.vishay.com/en/company/brands/vitramon/)

In the late 1990s, Vishay began expanding into semiconductors. Its subsequent additions included General Semiconductor in 2001 and BCcomponents in 2002, broadening its semiconductor and passive-component operations. [31](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P60185388)[36](https://www.vishay.com/en/company/brands/general-semiconductor/)[37](https://www.vishay.com/en/company/brands/bccomponents/)

After leading the company from its founding, Zandman stepped down as CEO, and Gerald Paul became CEO effective January 1, 2005. [38](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/103730/000120677404001676/vi71347ex99.htm) Later portfolio additions included MaxPower Semiconductor, acquired in October 2022, and Ametherm, acquired in June 2024. [39](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/103730/000010373024000034/R10.htm)[40](https://www.vishay.com/en/company/brands/ametherm/) Joel Smejkal succeeded Paul as President and CEO on January 1, 2023.
