FPGA is fast and large-scale, leading in technology, and has great prospects. The company 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 tens of millions of gate level, 100 million gate level FPGA chips and embedded programmable chips (PSoC). The company is the first manufacturer to launch 100 million gate FPGA products in China. In Q2, 2018, the company took the lead in launching 28 nm 100 million gate FPGA products, which were officially sold in 2019. In 2020, the sales exceeded 100 million yuan, and continued to expand rapidly in 2021. By the end of 2021, it had sold relevant FPGA products based on 28 nm to more than 300 customers. At the same time, the company has the first PSoC to be introduced to the market in China. This product can meet the needs of application fields such as high-speed communication, signal processing, image processing and industrial control, and the market response is good. At present, the company is actively developing a new generation of 1 billion gate level products based on 14 / 16nm process, further enriching the types of FPGA and PSoC chips in 28nm process, and maintaining the leading technology of domestic FPGA.
