Jiwei Network News, on January 18, Jingji Electronics pointed out on the investor interactive platform that the company's 12-inch independent optical lineweight measurement equipment (OCD) and 12-inch automatic electron beam wafer defect review equipment (ReviewSEM) are currently progressing very smoothly, and the company is actively promoting related business.
It also said: "At present, the company's orders in hand in the semiconductor field are growing rapidly, and the company is positive and optimistic about the market demand and orders in the semiconductor field in 2022." ”
Looking back at its previous survey with the institution, it said that in view of the fact that the front-end measurement equipment is currently dominated by foreign manufacturers in China, the technical barriers are high, and the verification cycle is longer than that of other semiconductor equipment; at the same time, most customers need to carry out verification tests according to their respective processes for the first equipment of the new factory, and the length of the verification cycle is affected by factors such as equipment type, customer requirements, and on-site environment. Therefore, the two equipment mentioned above are still in the normal debugging and verification process, and the specific time depends on the verification situation.
Jingji Electronics further said that the length of the verification cycle of semiconductor testing equipment is affected by many factors such as equipment type, customer requirements, and on-site environment, and the industry is generally around 6-18 months; affected by the epidemic, the supply of raw materials is tight, and the delivery cycle of key components is correspondingly extended, and the current delivery cycle of equipment is generally more than 6 months, and the delivery cycle of some foreign manufacturers is as long as 12 months.
At present, precision measurement of electronics has formed a layout in the whole field of semiconductor detection before and after. Wuhan Jinghong, a subsidiary of the company, mainly focuses on the field of automatic detection equipment (ATE) (the main product is memory chip test equipment), and has realized the technology transfer, localization of research and development, manufacturing, and localization of core components of key core products, from the previous single aging product line to the CP/FT product line; the aging (Burn-In) product line in the domestic first-line customers to achieve batch repeated orders, CP (Chip Probe, wafer detection)/FT (Final Test, final test, That is, factory testing) product line related products in the main storage plant functional machine test verification has been completed, is currently preparing the overall equipment test verification, related mass production orders are actively striving.
