Hua Hong Semiconductor’s "8-inch + 12-inch" full-line force to accelerate its entry into the IGBT market

release time:2020-09-03publisher:csc

    Hua Hong Semiconductor Co., Ltd., a global leading pure wafer foundry company with special processes under Hua Hong Group, announced that it will fully cooperate with customers of IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) products and actively build an IGBT ecological chain. At present, Hua Hong Semiconductor's foundry IGBT chips are extremely competitive in the market. It has accelerated the introduction of new energy vehicles, wind power generation, white smart home appliances and other markets to further enrich the IGBT product line and add new business growth points for Hua Hong Semiconductor.


  IGBT is the core device of energy conversion and transmission, which is called "CPU of power electronics industry". As the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) and low-carbon environmental protection becomes more and more popular, the demand for green energy and smart home appliances and frequency conversion has become unstoppable, and will continue to promote the rapid growth of the IGBT market.


As the world's first 8-inch wafer foundry company to provide field stop (FS, Field Stop) IGBT mass production technology, Hua Hong Semiconductor has deep experience in the field of IGBT manufacturing and has an advanced full set of IGBT thin wafer backside processing technology. Whether it is the turn-on voltage drop, turn-off loss, work safety zone, and reliability, it has reached the international leading level. Hua Hong Semiconductor has a large number of mass-produced IGBT product series, with voltages ranging from 600V to 1700V and currents ranging from 10A to 400A. The product line has gradually moved from the consumer category to industrial and commercial, new energy vehicles and other fields. In addition to pursuing higher power density and lower loss required by high-voltage power devices, Hua Hong Semiconductor is developing intelligent IGBT process technology with integrated sensors on-chip and a new type of heat dissipation IGBT technology with higher reliability to better serve the global market. Growing demand for IGBT products.


Fan Heng, Executive Vice President of Hua Hong Semiconductor, said: "Hua Hong Semiconductor has the first 12-inch power device foundry production line in Mainland China, and '8-inch + 12-inch' goes hand in hand to provide customers with a wider range of differentiated technologies and more sufficient production capacity. In recent years, Hua Hong Semiconductor aims at the mid-to-high-end market and emerging areas to fully enter the IGBT business, and continues to introduce first-class IGBT product companies at home and abroad, covering applications such as industry, automotive electronics and white goods, taking the lead in IGBT foundry Position. The R&D of Hua Hong Semiconductor’s 12-inch IGBT technology is progressing smoothly and will provide global customers with more competitive IGBT foundry solutions in the future."
