Rate semiconductor devices are the core technology of power output control and efficient conversion. China is the largest market and importer of power semiconductor devices in the world. Before 2010, China's power semiconductor field faced a bottleneck problem, the key core technology localization rate is low, the vast majority of chips rely on imports. Basic Semiconductor is committed to the realization of silicon carbide power semiconductor independent control, research and development covers silicon carbide material preparation, chip design, manufacturing process, packaging test, drive application and other aspects, has developed into a domestic third-generation semiconductor leader.

"China Chip" IC Industry Promotion Conference is one of the most influential and authoritative industry conferences in the field of IC in China, which is held by China Electronic Information Industry Development Institute. The results of "China Core" outstanding products solicitation held at the same time of the conference were released, aiming to commend the product innovation, technological innovation and application innovation achievements in the domestic IC field, exert demonstration effect, and influence and drive the development of the industry. Since 2006, under the guidance of the Electronic Information Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the "China Chip" outstanding product solicitation has been held for 16 consecutive sessions, which has become the vane and grand review of the development of domestic IC products and technologies. In recent years, new energy vehicles have become the mainstream trend of the global automotive industry. Basic Semiconductor began to develop and produce silicon carbide modules for vehicles in 2018. In the 14th "China Core" Integrated Circuit Industry promotion Conference, the basic semiconductor vehicle grade silicon carbide power module (BMB200120P1) won the award of Excellent technology innovation product. The product integrates two units of 1200V/200A silicon carbide MOSFET and silicon carbide continuous diode, and many parameters reach the leading level in the industry. Winning the "China Chip" award is the industry's full recognition of the r&d and innovation strength of basic semiconductor technology.

Adhere to independent innovation, set the semiconductor field

Founded in 2016, the core members of Basic Semiconductor include more than 10 PHDS from tsinghua University, Chinese Academy of Sciences, University of Cambridge, RWTH Aachen University, EcOLE Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne and other well-known universities and research institutions at home and abroad. Basic semiconductor core products include silicon carbide chips, industrial grade silicon carbide MOSFET, automotive grade silicon carbide Schottky diode, automotive grade all-silicon carbide power module, silicon carbide drive and mixed silicon carbide discrete devices, etc., the performance has reached the international advanced level. At present, Basic Semiconductor has supplied products to more than 600 customers, including many benchmark customers in the field of vehicle motor controller, vehicle OBC, photovoltaic inverter, charging pile, industrial power supply and so on.

In order to continuously improve the core competitiveness of products, basic Semiconductor continues to promote systematic innovation to speed up process and product development. At the end of 2021, Basic Released the full line of automotive grade all-silicon carbide power modules Pcore™6, Pcore™2, and Pcell™. All silver sintering this series of products using advanced technology, with a higher power density compared with traditional silicon-based IGBT module, reliability, junction temperature, and lower stray inductance, resistance and other characteristics, and has passed the device and the controller of a number of performance testing, performance reached the international advanced level, can be a powerful support to achieve the car companies customer motor controller instead of from the silicon to silicon carbide, Significantly improve vehicle power efficiency, reduce manufacturing and use costs.

Basic Semiconductor has sent samples of automotive silicon carbide modules to a number of automotive enterprises and their vehicle motor controller enterprises, and the batch application of multiple models will be realized from this year. At present, basic Semiconductor's Pcore™6 silicon carbide power module has been selected and tested by leading military vehicle companies in China and successfully obtained the designated product. It is expected to achieve mass production within this year. Up to now, the test vehicles of new energy vehicles equipped with silicon carbide devices independently developed by Basic Semiconductor have been running trouble-free for 1,000 days and the mileage has exceeded 100,000 kilometers.

Improve the industrial layout, gather domestic third generation semiconductor

In order to adapt to the growing demand for power semiconductor devices in China, to ensure stable product performance and supply chain security, Basic Semiconductor is accelerating the layout of double cycle supply chain at home and abroad, and promote the construction of production capacity. The company has established headquarter base, R&D center and manufacturing base in Shenzhen, silicon carbide chip R&D center in Shanghai and silicon carbide module R&D center in Nagoya, Japan respectively, and silicon carbide epitaxy manufacturing base in Nanjing. Among them, basic Semiconductor's automotive grade silicon carbide power module packaging production line, which will open in 2021, has entered the stage of mass production, which is the first dedicated production line for automotive grade silicon carbide power module in China. It is expected to have an annual capacity of 250,000 modules in 2022, and will expand to 4 million modules in 2025.

In order to effectively promote the industrialization of the third generation semiconductor, with the strong support of the Shenzhen Municipal government, Basic Semiconductor and the Research Institute of Tsinghua University in Shenzhen jointly build the third generation semiconductor materials and devices R&D Center, and participate in the establishment of the national 5G medium and high frequency device Innovation Center. At the same time, Basic semiconductor has also been approved as the third generation semiconductor Collaborative Innovation Center of the Industry-university-Research Integration Technology Innovation Service System of China Association for Science and Technology, and the third generation semiconductor silicon carbide power device Engineering technology Research Center of Guangdong Province. The company and its products won the honor of 2020 "Science and Innovation China" emerging enterprises, China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition professional competition first prize, undertook more than 10 national, provincial and municipal science and technology planning projects, overcome a number of key core technical problems, a total of nearly 200 domestic and foreign intellectual property rights.

Starting from the overseas technical team, basic semiconductor has made breakthroughs in silicon carbide power device technology research and development, product innovation, process innovation, car specification grade silicon carbide power module and other production lines have been built, products are widely used in the industrial field and new energy vehicles, has a system of testing and verification ability, It is committed to building a leading IDM (vertically integrated manufacturing) enterprise in the field of the third generation semiconductor in China.

The continuous holding of "China Chip" outstanding products solicitation provides a stage for domestic enterprises to show their strength and confidence, promotes the independent innovation of domestic chip industry, and accelerates the pace of "China Chip" marketization and industrialization. In the future, with the spirit of innovation and dedicated craftsman, Basic Semiconductor will make persistent efforts to pursue the dream of a new era with China Chip, and continue to help China's third generation semiconductor technology and industry grow bigger and stronger, and reshape the new pattern of global semiconductor industry development!
