IGBT modules have been introduced to the market, and actively expand the application fields of UPS, Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) inverter, frequency converter, automotive electronics and so on; In terms of IC, the second-generation bus Internet of things chip has been launched, and the overall performance has reached the leading level in China. The monolithic intelligent power IC developed by using the company’s unique 500vsoi-bci high-voltage process technology platform in China has been sent to customers for confirmation, which has a good market application prospect.

Launch BCD process technology of vehicle specification level, and complete the 12 inch production line before the end of the year

In 2021, the company continued to upgrade its BCD process technology, and newly launched 0.18 micron medium and high voltage vehicle gauge BCD process technology. At the same time, the technical performance of 0.11 micron BCD technology platform reached the standard and was recognized by mainstream customers.

At present, the company has a 6-inch wafer manufacturing capacity of about 230000 pieces / month and an 8-inch wafer manufacturing capacity of about 130000 pieces / month. The 12 inch power semiconductor wafer production line invested and constructed by Runxi microelectronics, jointly initiated by Huawei holdings, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, big fund phase II and Chongqing Xiyong, is expected to be completed by the end of 2022. After completion, it is expected to form a production capacity of 30000 pieces of 12 inch medium and high-end power semiconductor wafers per month, and support the construction of 12 inch epitaxial and wafer process capacity. In addition, the company actively promotes the construction of power semiconductor sealing and testing base, and plans to complete the production line by the end of 2022 and further code products such as power modules.
