Upon completion of the spin-off, BYD Semiconductor will continue working on the R&D, production and sale of power semiconductors, intelligent control units, intelligent sensors, and photoelectric semiconductors. While focusing on automotive-grade semiconductors, BYD Semiconductor will also develop semiconductor businesses for the spheres like home appliance, new energy, and consumer electronics in the future.

In addition, the name of BYD Microelectronics changed to BYD Semiconductor in January 2020, according to the corporate data platform Tianyancha.
