Business analysis
The company takes the lead in FPGA technology in China. The annual revenue of FPGA and other chips in 2021 was 430 million yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 109% Shanghai Fudan Microelectronics Group Co.Ltd(688385) is one of the leading companies in the field of FPGA technology in China. At present, it can provide a series of products such as 10 million gate level, 100 million gate level FPGA chips and embedded programmable chip (PSoC). The company is actively developing a new generation of 1 billion gate level products based on 14 / 16nm process, and further enriching the types of FPGA and PSoC chips based on 28nm process, so as to expand new markets and maintain the company's leading position in domestic FPGA technology.
The company's MCU business achieved downstream application expansion, with a revenue of 300 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 64%, a gross profit margin of 56.6%, and a year-on-year increase of 22.8pct. In industrial control, smart home, automotive electronics and other fields, the proportion of general low-power MCU has gradually increased. The company has worked in the Internet of things industry for many years. With excellent low-power performance, it has been widely used in the fields of Internet of things, water and gas heat meter and smart city, which are very sensitive to chip power consumption. The company actively launched new products according to the characteristics of white goods, motor drive, new energy, pan IOT and other fields. LG series MCU of the company has successfully obtained aec-q100 certification. The target application fields include vehicle wiper, window, seat, door lock, air conditioner, electronic shifter, etc.
The company's security and identification chips and nonvolatile memory increased both in volume and price, with revenue increasing by 42%, and a variety of products passed vehicle regulation certification. The gross profit margin of security and identification chip was 51%, with a year-on-year increase of 17pct, and the gross profit margin of nonvolatile memory was 56%, with a year-on-year increase of 10PCT. Smart cards, security chips and smart identification device chips have steadily expanded to new fields represented by the Internet of things, such as device security certification, communication security and device connection. At the same time, some products have obtained vehicle regulation certification and made breakthroughs in the fields of vehicle Tbox security chips and digital keys. The nonvolatile memory product line has also successfully entered mass production in the field of automotive electronics. There is a prospect of a significant increase in flash demand in China's smart meters, VR / AR, vehicle ADAS and other markets in the future.
