Domestic semiconductor equipment and materials are actively breaking the monopoly of foreign countries and entering the field of advanced process technology. Among them, North Huachuang and Zhongwei are the leading “flagmen†of domestic equipment. North Huachuang's current 14nm plasma silicon etching machine has been officially delivered to customers; at the same time, the end of the micro-transmission will officially finalize the 5nm etching machine. This is a major breakthrough made by domestic semiconductor equipment in advanced technological processes.
Zhao Jinrong, president of North Huachuang, said that domestic chip factories currently have replacement equipment cost-effective requirements for 65nm and 55nm processes with higher degrees of power. In addition, look forward to the introduction of new fabs in China in the next 2-3 years, including domestic The memory fab, which is focusing on mass production, will be more autonomy and flexible in purchasing domestic equipment in the future.
Recently, North China Huachuang received a second order from SMIC, indicating that its equipment has considerable stability in the process of process technology.
It is understood that SMIC 12å‹ is one of the important advanced process customers in North China. In particular, this year's SMIC 28nm planning customer chip will grow in volume, especially in the HKMG process to achieve mass production breakthrough, domestic equipment will play a role of promotion.
North Huachuang said that in the field of integrated circuit manufacturing, 14nm plasma silicon etching machine has also been delivered to customers. 28nm Hardmask PVD and Al-Pad PVD equipment have taken the lead in the international supply chain system, and the cumulative throughput of 12-inch wafer cleaning machine. It has broken through the 600,000-piece mark and deep silicon etching equipment has also successfully entered the Southeast Asian market.
In addition, in the advanced packaging field, the company's etching machine and PVD equipment have been widely used in major enterprises around the world, and PVD machines have become the first choice for the world's top three CIS packaging companies.
Equipment localization growth such as "the fire of the stars"Zhao Jinrong also said that the core equipment of domestic integrated circuits began to sprout, and the amount of Chinese domestic equipment purchases began to increase year by year, and the "star fire" has been enough to poke the original state.
He pointed out that in some market segments such as etching machine, PVD, PECVD, single crystal furnace, annealing furnace, package lithography machine and other equipment, the localization has been basically realized. This process takes about 5 years; The localization of high-end equipment may take five years, perhaps 10 years, but it is already the trend.
Although the adoption rate of domestically produced equipment in integrated circuits is less than 10%, he is optimistic that it is expected to increase to 30% in the next three years.
In the past, the revenue of semiconductor equipment in North China increased from 520 million yuan to 810 million yuan, an increase of 56.18% over the same period of the previous year. It is expected that revenue will continue to grow under the attention of major orders in 2017.
In fact, not only North Huachuang has tasted the “sweetness†of domestic equipment growth in recent years, other equipment manufacturers have achieved quite bright growth in 2016, such as Shenyang Xinsong’s annual growth rate of nearly 126%, and Beijing Jingyi Automation Growth 145. %, Jingjiang Pioneer grew by about 38%, Shenyang Science and Technology increased by 80%, and so on. It is again shown that domestic equipment materials have experienced a leap in growth in the past few years.
Mid-micro 5nm etching machine launched at the end of the marketAnother important equipment partner of SMIC also includes Shenzhen Zhongwei Semiconductor (AMEC), the manufacturer of etching machines. Recently, Zhongwei will finalize the 5nm etching machine at the end of 2017. For this reason, China Micro has been developing for 5 years.
At present, only SMIC has launched the 7nm process development, which is about 2-3 generations behind the giants such as Intel, Samsung, and TSMC. Most of the most advanced process equipments are controlled by foreign manufacturers, but domestic equipment is actively seeking Breakthrough.
Yin Zhiwei, CEO of Micro-Semiconductor, said that the 5nm etching machine is being tested and is expected to be officially launched at the end of this year. However, the micro-study team also mentioned that it takes about 5 years for the etching machine to mature and introduce chips into commercial mass production.
Zhongwei estimates that the company's sales this year is expected to grow by more than 70%, and the output value will reach 1.1 billion yuan. Yin Zhisheng said that according to the estimation that China will purchase 48 billion US dollars of integrated circuit production equipment by 2020, the localization of local equipment in China must continue its process and gradually increase the self-sufficiency rate.
