The development of Shanghai and the annual allocation of 30 million support chip production

Chinese Zhao Jianzhong, the first generation of IC (integrated circuit) one of the designers, Shanghai integrated circuit industry association secretary general. From the beginning of August 29th, Zhao Jianzhong suddenly busy, he went out every day to visit the project. Shanghai second batch of the whole machine and the chip linkage project has been declared the end of the report, as the whole machine and chip linkage of the main push people, to participate in the field of these projects to declare the inspection.

This year to declare the project units more than in previous years, Zhao Jianzhong to promote more and more confidence in the linkage.

Shanghai City, the path and the target linkage also began to clear, in the second batch of Shanghai city to promote joint machine industry and IC design industry special declaration "notice, proposed focusing panel (TFT-LCD) display chip, and the first clear goal: to ensure that by the end of 2007 digital flat display chip localization rate reached more than 30%. Staff of the relevant departments of Shanghai, said: at present, the localization rate of Shanghai flat chip is basically blank." Linkage can become a starting point?

In fact, not only in Shanghai, China's chip industry is in the ascendant.

Chip is called "industrial food", is the core of electronic products. However, 80% of the domestic electronic products are from foreign countries, while the majority of the 20% concentrated in the low level of consumer electronics applications, such as IC cards, home appliances, electricity meters, power management microprocessor.

Shanghai as one of the "seven Chinese China core base (Shanghai, Xi'an, Wuxi, Beijing, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, 2004), chip manufacturing industry sales revenue reached 13 billion 320 million yuan, accounting for 72.5% chip manufacturing.

However, behind the achievements, there is a glimmer of worry, all the chips in Shanghai are almost all OEM, with independent intellectual property rights of the product less and less.

In fact, the "core" - electronic product chip localization rate is very low - has long been China's IC (integrated circuit) industry recognized facts.

However, recent evidence shows that Shanghai is seeking a breakthrough. The August 24th Meeting of the "Shanghai city state-owned enterprise development strategic planning work conference, Shanghai Economic Commission and the SASAC official said the state-owned enterprises" 11th Five-Year "industrial planning, in Shanghai to build the base of microelectronics has become an important goal.

Two years ago, Zhao Jianzhong told the Shanghai authorities submitted two reports of the development of the integrated circuit, the core of the report is to strengthen the linkage with the chip "in Shanghai, as the starting point to promote the development of chip design. The free state of chip development"

Shanghai chip design related enterprises have more than and 100, more than the number of chip manufacturing and other aspects of the enterprise, but Shanghai IC design enterprise survival rate is not high, the chip design products industry is not much, the main reason is that the Shanghai chip design industry exception to the whole industry chain.

"Design enterprises and manufacturers of the market to determine the different direction of the product requirements are different." Insiders analysis.

As a whole machine manufacturers, they have a great demand for chip development, often independent development. However, the company's products developed by the manufacturers, and encountered another dilemma in the industrialization. July 2nd, Hisense's five largest color TV production base at the same time off the assembly line, the core of the color TV, the core is Hisense self-developed chip". When the media asked about the "industry value outlook hiview", Hisense chairman Zhou Houjian said: "the situation in China is the core technology development," but are not Ten thousand steeds gallop. "industrialization."

Although the launch of this chip announced that Hisense will be transformed from the manufacturer to the technology patent, to become China's largest chip supplier." However, the chip will be more than just the realization of the internal Hisense, other Chinese companies will be too strong sense of competition, and is unlikely to adopt a competitor's chips." An Yongcheng, Professor of national broadcast and television product quality supervision and inspection center.

Earlier, there are media reports, Konka, TCL are also stepping up their own research and development of video processing chips, may soon have results. But the industry believes that these chip manufacturers of products, but also at most in their internal use, it is difficult to be widely used in a larger platform.

Coincidentally, in June 29th, the industry that Lenovo "sell" news that Lenovo will develop two months to Hengzhi computer security chip, sold to Shanghai Huahong integrated circuit Co. Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "China").

Lenovo launched Hengzhi chip, hoped Hengzhi computer machine industry in the industry, but this dream soon blocked. The reason is that many domestic counterparts have launched their own security computer, their core security chip from another independent security chip manufacturer.

Therefore, in the current situation, the domestic manufacturers to launch the chip, will be to act as an industry chain oligarchs questioned.

In the international arena, such as NOKIA, Samsung, these giant machines, chips are outsourcing, a long-term strategic partner. The original design of the whole machine is also in the international division of the relevant departments.

The design of the chip splitter chip has become an international trend. Last year, Motorola split semiconductor sector, is a typical case, this situation, to promote the whole chip linkage is very time." Insiders told reporters. 30 million yuan, can
