Today, Gree Electric WeChat publicly issued a document saying that Gree's self-developed chips have been mass-produced, and that they can use their own chips next year. .
Gree Electric said that Gree Chips is currently focusing on design and is a pure chip design company. The production is done by the foundry, but it does not rule out the possibility of Gree independently manufacturing chips in the future.
Gree Electric said that the annual cost of purchasing chips is several billion yuan. The recently registered Zhuhai Zero-Border Integrated Circuit Co., Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gree Electric Appliances Co., which marks the official development of the chip industry as a future development strategy. An important component, and the development of the benchmark is a world-class integrated circuit product.
According to Gree Electric's public number, Gree Electric said that the semiconductor design team had been established as early as 2015. Now it is possible to design the main chip of the air conditioner independently. Currently, it is developing high-end variable frequency drive chips and host chips. Gree chip company not only needs to implement chip autonomy. Going, go out and expand sales.
Nail Technology believes that Gree enters the chip manufacturing field, which is intended to get rid of its dependence on imported chips and save on chip purchase costs. Dong Mingzhu has repeatedly expressed his high-profile attitude towards the outside world, which fully proves his determination to make chips. However, the chip Not a quick-selling product, the future development is mainly driven by technological innovation.
