STMicroelectronics N.V. is a global semiconductor company that designs, develops, manufactures, and markets a broad range of products. The company addresses four end-markets: Automotive, Industrial, Personal Electronics, and Communications Equipment, Computers and Peripherals. ST emphasizes a broad and balanced product portfolio and operates as an integrated device manufacturer, controlling a significant portion of its supply chain with state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities.
As of December 31, 2025, ST has four reportable segments within two product groups. The Analog, Power & Discrete, MEMS and Sensors (APMS) product group includes: (1) Analog Products, MEMS and Sensors (AM&S), covering analog ICs, MEMS sensors and actuators, and optical sensing solutions; and (2) Power and Discrete products (P&D), covering discrete and power transistor products. The Microcontrollers, Digital ICs and RF products (MDRF) product group includes: (3) Embedded Processing (EMP), covering general-purpose and automotive microcontrollers, connected security products, and custom processing (automotive ADAS); and (4) RF Optical Communications (RFOC), covering space, ranging & connectivity, digital audio & signaling, and optical & RF custom products.
ST’s portfolio includes numerous named products and platforms. Key microcontroller families include the STM32 series (featuring the STM32N6 with neural processing unit, STM32V8 on 18nm FD-SOI with PCM, and ultra-low-power STM32U3), and the Stellar automotive MCU family. In analog and power, notable platforms are MasterGaN and VIPerGaN (integrated GaN drivers), STGAP gate drivers, and broad power discrete offerings including SiC MOSFETs and GaN devices. MEMS and sensor products include motion, environmental, and biosensors, as well as actuators. Optical sensing solutions are marketed under FlightSense, BrightSense, and SafeSense. Security products include STSECURE microcontrollers and ST25 NFC tags.
