[decryption] MEMSIC semiconductor in the end what attracts HC semitek?

Recently, a sensor industry news sensational market. In May 9th, HC semitek announcement that the company received the confirmation letter of CFIUS, the acquisition of harmonious core optical (Yiwu) Photoelectric Technology Co., Ltd. 100% stake, and harmonious core photonic company acquired 100% stake in Inc. MEMSIC, has passed the CFIUS review. This good MEMSIC semiconductor behind in the end what attracted Huacan, reporter recently on the new in-depth understanding.

The United States under the background of advanced research focus MEMSIC semiconductor MEMS

It is understood that the new semiconductor was founded in 1999, the CEO, the Chinese American Zhao Yang started his career in the famous American semiconductor company Analog Devices, is the world's leading technology in Inc. MEMS. Therefore, with advanced technology and ideas, in 1999 Zhao Yang persuaded ADI to technology and capital shares and TSMC jointly set up a new semiconductor. After the new semiconductor in the United States $twenty-five million financing and foreign investment to set up new semiconductor (Wuxi) Co., ltd.. In 2007 the new company listed on the Nasdaq, become the world's first YISHION MEMS products and technology listed companies.

With Analog Devices, Inc MEMS technology, advanced idea and team, and through the research and design MEMS Boston design center, Chicago IC design center and headquarters, and labor Chinese mainland congenital cost advantage, MEMSIC semiconductor will carry foreign advanced technology products to achieve large-scale industrial production base in Wuxi.

A number of new products leading the international advanced technology to boost the internationalization of domestic semiconductor technology

At present, the company has a number of new international leading MEMS products and the advantages of the acceleration sensor is the industry's smallest size, only 1.2mmx1.7mm, and currently has a higher level of the international MEMS product is more than two times the size of. In addition, the new product is the industry's only monolithic integrated MEMS sensor and CMOS technology, is also unique in the industry with the production of wafer level package (WLP) technology manufacturers. In the global industry, new magnetic sensor has the technology and cost comprehensively beyond all global competitors. Its latest monolithic integrated geomagnetic sensor, size only 0.8mmx0.8mm, is the smallest in the industry and has a performance level of navigation accuracy. The new technology not only makes the new sensor zero drift, resolution is reached 20bits, all the indicators are beyond the competitors 10-100 times.

After years of independent research and development, the company has accumulated all kinds of new MEMS sensor shipments of more than 1 billion. The application fields include consumer electronics, automotive electronics and industrial control. As a key component of safety airbag, new high precision accelerometer has been installed to more than fifty million cars and motorcycles, including Ford, GM, BMW, Benz, YAMAHA, Microsoft and so on, is currently the only in the core of the semiconductor sensor relates to the personal safety of the China production. From the new establishment to the Nasdaq, MEMSIC has been focused on high-end MEMS device development and industrialization, compete directly with ST, Bosch, Honeywell and other international giants. Its early customers are from IMB, general motors, Ford and other large European and American manufacturers.

Technology innovation to improve us to build a world-class sensor company

With the development of MEMS technology, the application of MEMS products in the automotive electronics, consumer electronics, industrial equipment, navigation, medical and other fields has become more and more popular, the market is constantly showing a trend of rapid growth. By 2018, MEMS's output will exceed $22 billion by, according to Yole semiconductor, a global authoritative semiconductor consultancy. From the domestic market, China is one of the largest MEMS markets in the world. In 2015, the size of China's MEMS market has been close to 30 billion yuan, and the growth rate of two consecutive years more than 15%; by 2020, China's sensor market will increase further, the average annual growth rate will reach more than 20%.

The rapid development of the market requires strong support of the corresponding products, while the advanced technology is the only support for the support of the product. MEMSIC semiconductor after 18 years of development, the United States and China has established a mature and efficient development and management team. The US headquarter is responsible for cutting-edge technology and product development, and the Wuxi R & D team is responsible for engineering testing and testing of existing products. The head office is directly responsible for project development and personnel training of R & D team in Wuxi. Through the exchanges and practices between China and the United States, we have trained a number of world-class MEMS engineers to build world-class sensor companies.
