MOUNTAIN TOP, Pa. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — June 21, 2018 — ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ON), driving energy efficient innovations, plans to invest $51 million to support expansion of the Luzerne County facility. The ON Semiconductor Mountain Top location specializes in the manufacturing of semiconductor discrete devices used in power management applications across a wide variety of industries, including automotive, industrial, communication and computing.

Today, ON Semiconductor occupies 437,000 square feet of space on 84 acres in the Crestwood Industrial Park.
