Saiwei Electronics: The impact of the epidemic is limited, and the construction of Beijing FAB3 Phase II with a total capacity of 20,000 pieces per month is proceeding in an orderly manner

On March 31, Saiwei Semiconductor, a leading domestic MEMS chip process development and wafer manufacturer, stated in an institutional survey that the company has always attached great importance to epidemic prevention, and its FAB factories both at home and abroad strictly abide by the laws and regulations of the local governments. As of now, all production lines are operating well and are in normal operation.

In view of the fact that the epidemic situation in Beijing is quite stable at present, Saiwei Electronics stated that the company's Beijing production line is currently proceeding normally in terms of expansion construction, equipment procurement, and communication with customers and suppliers, and is limitedly affected by the epidemic. Beijing FAB3 plant has also made new progress. As of now, the company's FAB3 Phase II with a total capacity of 20,000 pieces/month is under construction. The factory building is still under construction. At the same time, equipment orders for the second phase of production capacity have been issued one after another, and some of them have been delivered. For the second phase of production capacity, Beijing FAB3 aims to complete the construction of the clean room in the second quarter of this year, and will gradually move the equipment into the factory for debugging in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter, the newly added production capacity will begin to be partially usable.

It is reported that similar to the product areas of Sweden's FAB1&2, the product areas of Saiwei Electronics FAB3's MEMS chip foundry services also cover communications, biomedicine, industrial automobiles and consumer electronics. The FAB3 factory is positioned as a large-scale mass production line, but business negotiations, process development, product verification, and mass production require an objective process, and the introduction of FAB3's customers and products also takes time. Judging from the business cooperation that has been carried out as of March 1 this year, MEMS silicon microphones, MEMS inertial devices, and BAW filters will account for the vast majority of FAB3's initial monthly production capacity of 10,000 pieces. In the future, MEMS devices such as galvanometers, optics, microfluidics, pressure, gas, and infrared will be added according to customer orders.
