Data center servers and GPU servers have very demanding power requirements, which can only be met with sophisticated analog circuits. Wireless 天線, transmitter and receiver also require lot of analog technologies.
Our team just hired a Power Electronics Engineer (就是 Analog EE) with an MS from Caltech (compensation package is around $400K).
Have you ever heard of the Monolithic Power Systems, Inc. (MPWR)?
Its market cap ($36B) is twice that of Zoom ($18B).
MPWR 的股票過去10年漲了50倍!
BTW, here are the top executives of MPWR (Founder & CEO is Chinese) and advanced analog ICs have very high profit margins (think of Maxim and Linear Technology).
