In 2020, when the Coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic broke out, various industries will be more or less affected, but there are still companies that welcome industry benefits. Chinese A-share listed company SCHT High-tech's main business gallium nitride (third-generation semiconductor, GaN) may usher in the first year of commercial use in 2020.
From 2015 to 2017, the company accurately grasped the opportunities of domestic industrial adjustment and actively deployed the semiconductor industry. At this stage, Haite High-tech has internationally leading and domestic first-class technologies in the field of third-generation compound semiconductors (gallium nitride, GaN, etc.). Independent and controllable R&D and manufacturing enterprises of performance integrated circuits. Hitech, a subsidiary of Hitech, is the first domestic manufacturer to provide pure foundry services for six-inch gallium arsenide integrated circuits (GaAs MMIC).
Haiwei Huaxin is engaged in the second and third generation semiconductor tape-out manufacturing, and can provide foundry services. The company has developed a gallium nitride foundry process for 5G base stations, a gallium arsenide foundry process for mobile phones, a 0.15um gallium arsenide process for millimeter wave bands, a gallium arsenide VCSEL laser process, and silicon-based gallium nitride for power electronics Manufacturing process.
It is worth noting that in recent years, Haiwei Huaxin has been using world-class semiconductor process equipment, including stepping lithography machines, ion implanters, metal sputtering stations, metal evaporation stations, wet etching stations, etc., with rich operating experience , Or will play a more important role in the substitution of imported domestic chips in the future.
Benefiting from the company's forward-looking industrial layout, Haite High-tech's operating income in 2019 was 800 million yuan, an increase of 56% year-on-year, and its parent net profit was 75 million yuan, an increase of 18% year-on-year.
Semiconductor business orders may usher in an explosion
Hitech Huaxin, in which Hitech holds 53.79% of its shares, is mainly engaged in the development of second and third generation compound semiconductor integrated circuit chips. Since Haite High-tech holds the company’s holdings, the company has completed a number of product process developments including gallium arsenide, gallium nitride, silicon carbide, etc., which can support the manufacture of power amplifiers, photodetectors, lasers, power electronics and other products. Its business covers aviation , Aerospace, satellite, consumer electronics and other fields, application scenarios include 5G mobile communications, artificial intelligence, radar, 3D perception, new energy, national defense and other fields.
As early as 2016, Haiwei Huaxin has built the first 6-inch second-generation compound semiconductor integrated circuit chip production line with independent intellectual property rights in China. On this basis, Haiwei Huaxin has used the company's core technology Supported by production equipment, we provide customers with complete second- and third-generation compound semiconductor integrated circuit chip design, foundry and testing services. In the field of microwave communications, Hiway Huaxin focuses on GaAs p-HEMT/HBT and GaN HEMT Integrated circuit process technology. Provide customers with stable and efficient products and services.
In 2019 alone, Hiway Huaxin has continuously completed the development of a number of technical processes, including the development of the 0.15 micron gallium arsenide process. This product is the company’s first 5G millimeter wave commercial process. It currently holds 249 patents. Half of them are invention patents. And for the first time in 2019, a breakthrough in chip orders from tens of millions to hundreds of millions was achieved, and the order situation maintained a growth trend.
It is worth noting that the performance of several products of the company in 2019 are finalized and enter the batch stage. Carbon-based gallium nitride, power electronics and optoelectronics businesses have achieved mass production capabilities for some products.
