According to the disclosure, in 2017, Silan Micro’s revenue from integrated circuit and discrete device products increased by 14.03% and 16.79% respectively over the same period of last year. Among integrated circuit products, LED lighting drive circuit, IPM power module, MCU circuit, digital audio and video The shipments of circuits, MEMS sensors and other products maintained rapid growth. In discrete device products, MOS transistors, IGBTs, PIM modules and other products grew faster.
In 2017, Silan Micro IPM power module products continued to make breakthroughs in the domestic white goods (mainly air, ice, washing), industrial converters and other markets. In 2017, many domestic mainstream white power equipment manufacturers in inverter air conditioners, etc. Over 2 million Silan IPM modules are used on the white machine, and it is expected to continue to grow rapidly in the next few years. In 2017, Silan Microsystems' variable-frequency motor control chips have begun mass shipments, initially completing the market layout. This series of chips will be widely used in the future of white goods, power tools, garden tools and other brushless DC motor control, is expected to quickly expand the market in 2018. 2017, Silan Micro's IGBT devices, IGBT power modules ( PIM), super junction MOSFET and other products continue to grow faster. In addition to accelerating the market expansion in white power, industrial control, etc., the company has begun planning to enter new energy vehicles, photovoltaic and other markets, and is expected to continue to grow rapidly in the next few years.
In 2017, Silan micro accelerometer products have been shipped in large quantities, and the quality has remained stable; Six-axis inertial units, optical sensor products, magnetic sensor products, pressure sensor products, silicon microphones and other products have started to promote customers, and it is expected that the 2018 will be Faster speed to expand the market.
Shi Lanwei stated that as a company in the domestic semiconductor industry with IDM (Design and Manufacturing Integration) as the main model, R&D expenditures are mainly divided into R&D and R&D of manufacturing processes. The company’s goal is to use internationally advanced IDM companies as Learning benchmarking, as soon as possible to become a world-class competitive, with its own brand of integrated semiconductor product suppliers.
