Samsung Electro-Mechanics

Samsung Electro-Mechanics is a computer science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Samsung Electro-Mechanics rather than just read about it. In short: Samsung Electro-Mechanics (SEM, 삼성전기) is a multinational electronic component company headquartered in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea. It is a subsidiary of the Samsung Group.

Key takeaways

Samsung Electro-Mechanics belongs to computer science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Samsung Electro-Mechanics to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Samsung Electro-Mechanics from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Samsung Electro-Mechanics (SEM, 삼성전기) is a multinational electronic component company headquartered in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea. It is a subsidiary of the Samsung Group. The company produces chip parts such as Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCC), Inductors, Resistors, IC Substrate, semiconductor substrates, camera modules, network modules and printed circuit boards. Established in 1973 as Samsung Sanyo Parts, the name was changed to Samsung Electric Parts the following year. The name was again changed to Samsung Electronics Parts in 1977, and then to Samsung Electro-Mechanics in 1987. The company is headquartered in Suwon, with additional manufacturing facilities in Sejong and Busan, and overseas in Calamba, Laguna, Philippines and Thailand. It also once had such facility in Tianjin, China.

Products Samsung Electro-Mechanics specializes in the manufacture of passive components and specialized electronic modules. The company's primary output includes Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCC), chip resistors, and inductors. Additionally, the firm develops semiconductor substrates, such as organic IC substrates and rigid-flex printed circuit boards (PCBs), alongside hardware modules for telecommunications, including camera and network modules.

Governance As of January 2026, Samsung Electro-Mechanics’ Board of Directors is composed of 3 inside directors and 4 independent directors, with 6 board committees. These committees are the Compensation Committee, Management Committee, Audit Committee, Independent Directors Candidate Recommendation Committee, and the Internal Transaction Committee, and the ESG Committee. An independent director serves as chairman of the board.

Environmental management

Greenhouse gases The company received recognition from the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) Korea Committee between 2014 and 2016.

Energy In the 34th Energy-Saving Promotion conference awarding a prize to person who contributed to the improvement of energy efficiency and overcoming the power supply crisis, Chi-joon Choi, CEO of Samsung Electro-Mechanics was awarded the Silver Tower Industry medal.

Outreach The company engages in various social outreach programs, including medical support and music initiatives for people with disabilities.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Samsung Electro-Mechanics

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Samsung Electro-Mechanics claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In computer science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Samsung Electro-Mechanics before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Samsung Electro-Mechanics ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Samsung Electro-Mechanics

In research: Samsung Electro-Mechanics appears in computer science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Samsung Electro-Mechanics in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Samsung Electro-Mechanics is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1970s initial public offerings, Companies based in Suwon, Companies in the KOSPI 200, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Samsung Electro-Mechanics outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
