Hefei, as a deputy central city in the Yangtze River Delta's world-class urban agglomeration, was deployed here. From scratch, it jumped to the 'rising star'.
Today, in just a few years, 129 integrated circuit companies have been gathered here, covering the entire industrial chain of design, manufacturing, packaging and testing, equipment and materials, and becoming one of the fastest-growing and most effective cities in China's integrated circuit industry. .
Jing Jing falls to the new station, breaking the title 'hard core'
Everyday life, from small cell phones, computers, home appliances and medical care, to cars, high-speed rail, airplanes and aerospace, can not be separated from the chip's 'heart'.
Since China started late, the chip industry was once controlled by foreign manufacturers. It needs a lot of imports from overseas every year. The cost of imported chips has already surpassed that of petroleum. As for Hefei, the development of home appliances industry, panel display, automotive electronics, and green new energy are rapidly developing. , The demand for chips is enormous.
The lack of 'core' pain not only restricts the upgrading of manufacturing industries, but also is not conducive to national information security. To complement 'core' has become the key to many domestic companies and even one country to master core technologies and take the road of independent innovation.
How to break the question?
On October 20, 2015, Hefei Jinghe, with a total investment of 12.81 billion yuan, formally laid the groundwork for the construction of the New Station High-tech Zone. If, as stated, BOE successfully settled in Hefei, breaking China's long-standing 'painless pain', then Jinghe Hefei, the integration project, can be said to eliminate the 'hard core'.
Hefei Jinghe Integrated Circuit Co., Ltd. also became the first 12-inch driver chip foundry in the province. It is the largest integrated circuit industry project in the province and the first billion-plus-yuan integrated circuit project in Hefei.
As a result, Hefei opened the road to a "out of nothing" road.
On June 28, 2017, the first batch of trial production was completed. The first batch of wafers was formally released in mid-July; On December 6, 2017, the production was officially started.
In the exhibition hall, we not only showed the finished products of Hefei-made wafers, but also made clear from the film production, optical lithography, etching, doping, chemical mechanical polishing and other wafer manufacturing process processes. According to the plan, the crystallization of 2020 A factory building can reach a monthly production capacity of 40,000 pieces, and Hefei Jinghe is also expected to become the world's largest manufacturer focusing on panel-driven chips.
Amass 129 companies to form a full industrial chain
In fact, crystallization is just the beginning of development of Hefei 'core'.
This stage of wafer manufacturing landing, opened up the IC industry chain, so that the city's station on the forefront of industrial development.
In the same month of mass production of crystal 12-inch wafers, that is, in December 2017, the chip packaging and testing 'Shuangzi' project settled in Hefei, with a total investment of 3.5 billion yuan. The company will establish the largest semiconductor display chip packaging and testing company in China's mainland. Packaging COF tape production base.
Not only that, leading companies are constantly accumulating.
In the design process, the city has 102 well-known companies such as Lianfa Technology, Qunlian Electronics, Zhaoyi Innovation, and Junzheng Technology, among which 5 companies with sales revenue exceeding 100 million yuan have reached 5, and the world’s top IC design company MediaTek is even more Settled its second largest R&D center in Hefei, Hefei;
In the manufacturing process, in addition to mass production of 12-inch wafers, the Changxin 12-inch memory wafer manufacturing base construction project is also fast-paced. After the project is put into production, it is expected to occupy approximately 8% of the world's DRAM market, filling the domestic DRAM market. Blank, our city will step into the ranks of world-class memory manufacturing centers;
In the packaging and testing process, it has such projects as Tongfu Microelectronics, Xinhuicheng, COF Tape and Silicon Step.
In the equipment sector, the core-microelectronics dual-stage laser direct imaging equipment has broken the monopoly of high-end laser direct-write exposure equipment in foreign countries, and Dahua Semiconductor's proprietary production equipment and precision molds have achieved mass production sales.
The data shows that at present, the city has 129 integrated circuit companies, including 102 design companies, 3 manufacturing companies, 8 packaging and testing companies, 16 equipment and material companies, covering the entire industrial chain of integrated circuits. In 2017, the city’s integrated circuits. The industrial output value was 23.56 billion yuan, an increase of 31.03% over the same period of last year. The tax revenue was 2.12 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 11.58%, and the investment was 7.25 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 39.42%.
Innovative investment, tailor-made for high-quality projects 'landing'
Embark on the IC industry's "out of nothing" development track, behind which a strong support is to attract investment.
As early as the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, Hefei demonstrated its powerful 'magnetic field effect' in attracting investment and capital investment.
Investment in the industrial chain of the pillar industries is carried out. A large number of upstream and downstream supporting companies have come to invest in fertilizers.
The attractiveness of the city to the project lies not only in the good location transportation, scientific and educational resources and other congenital advantages, but also in the quality services provided to the project investors. Ningbo HSBC immediately 'orders' in just three days, which can be peeped Hefei's 'Hospitality Road' - Major government-sponsored projects are led by the government to increase the protection of land, planning, water and electricity, streamline the approval process, optimize service procedures, improve service efficiency, and ensure the smooth progress of the project. Landing.
In addition to establishing and improving the project validation mechanism, Hefei has also issued a series of policies to reduce the burden on enterprises and use policy dividends to create a 'investment highland'. It is worth mentioning that Hefei also innovated the support policy for large investment projects and adopted 'one matter and one discussion'. And other methods tailored for high-quality large-scale 'landing' method.
Hefei 'core', sprint 'world class'
All along, the state and Anhui Province have attached great importance to the development of the IC industry in Hefei.
Earlier, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology listed Hefei as one of the nine major integrated circuit development bases in China. The National Development and Reform Commission listed Hefei as one of the 14 key integrated industrial development cities. Some of the projects have been incorporated into the 13th Five-Year National Major Integrated Circuit. Production layout planning.
Anhui Province has listed the Hefei IC Industry Base as a provincial-level new industry agglomeration development base.
A few years ago, Hefei lived up to the expectations, and the road to create a "core" became clearer and gradually formed its own industrial characteristics.
That is, with the local market as the traction, talent resources as support, and highly integrated with the local industry, the three major industrial clusters of chips are formed.
Among them, in the field of panel-driven chips, Duntech Technology has been gathering in the market to create a new company in the North, Zhongdian Jingxian, Hongjing, and Longxun. In the field of home appliance chips, it has gathered companies such as Junzheng Technology and Silicon Lijie; , Automotive electronics, power chips and other fields have also been laid out.
The good news is that this year’s “Government Work Report” in Hefei made it clear that: 'To promote new types of display, integrated circuits, photovoltaic solar energy, intelligent voice and artificial intelligence, and other strategic emerging industries have developed into world-class industrial clusters.'
What is even more exciting is that at the beginning of 2017, the construction plan for the Hefei Comprehensive National Science Center was approved. With the presentation of the basic platform of this “Ziguahao” innovation system, it will provide a stronger source of innovation power for industrial development. Hefei builds 'China's Capital of IC' is just around the corner.
According to the plan, during the “Thirteenth Five-Year Plan” period, the city will focus on the improvement of the 'Hefei Core', 'Hefei Production' and 'Hefei Use' chains, and will strive to develop the design and manufacture of memory chips, driver chips and specialty chips, and strive to achieve breakthrough in production value by 2020. 50 billion yuan, manufacturing and design industries are among the top five in the country.
