With continental pairsEUV lithography machineThe implementation of the ban is a huge challenge for Korean companies. And not only to face the mainlandSemiconductorsThe containment of the industry also has to deal with the loss of its own technological advantage in cutting-edge fields. However, the South Korean SKHynixSoon found a way to break the ban, by dividing the production process into three steps, realizing partial production at factories on the mainland, willWafersShipped back to South Korea for processingeuvprocess, and then ship the finished product back to the mainland factory, flexible response to the ban.
In order to break the continental pairEUV lithography machineThe ban is restricted, South Korea SKHynixThe re-planning of the production process was selected. They divided the production process into three steps: first, partial production at the mainland factory; Secondly, will be producedWafersShipped back to South Korea for processingeuvprocess; Finally, the finished product is transported back to the mainland factory again for the final production process. Although this mode of production comes with additional costs, it is more expensive than producing all of it on the mainland, but thanks to *** darmChipsOnly once**, the increased cost can be usedThe value of the commodityMake up for. Therefore, SKHynixAble to make a profit and successfully break through the lithography ban.
The successful use of this approach is not only due to SKHynix's smart decision-making is also related to their past experience. 10 years ago, due to a fire at a factory in the mainland, SKHynixFacedChainThe dilemma of breaking. In order to reduce the losses, they took the remaining at that timeChipsThe strategy of shipping back to local manufacturing and eventually successfully overcame itChainThe crisis of rupture. Nowadays, SKHynixThe choice of this method again shows their confidence in the feasibility and effectiveness of this strategy.
skHynixSuccessfully breaking through the ban on lithography equipment will not only leave the United States with no way to do anything, but may also trigger other restricted foreign companies to follow suit. However, this approach is not appropriate for Chinese companies, as mainland companies and the mainland market are openly banned. In order to avoid being controlled by others, Chinese companies should choose independent research and developmentLithography machineto enhance their own technical strength.
At present, the situation is putting a lot of pressure on ASML. Due to the restrictions of the ban, they were unable to ship, resulting in a loss of market share. In addition, Japanese companies are also looking forward to the Chinese market, and they will strive to compete for market share with their shipments. Therefore, over time, the United States has been rightEUV lithography machineThe ban may become insignificant.
skHynixSuccessfully broke through to the continentEUV lithography machineThe ban has had a significant impact on the industry as a whole. First of all, it shows how companies with technological innovation at their core can cope with difficulties in the face of difficulties. Secondly, it indicates the continentSemiconductorsThe competitiveness of the market is gradually rising, forcing companies in other countries to change their strategies to maintain a competitive edge. Finally, it reminds us that independent research and development and technological innovation are long-term solutions, and only by continuously strengthening our own strength can we be invincible in the competition.
It is worth noting that despite the SKHynixThe ban was successfully broken, but this does not mean that the problem has been fundamentally solved. Chinese companies still face technical barriers andChainIssue. Therefore, we need to increase our efforts to carry out independent research and development and improve our own technical level to ensure long-term developmentSustainability
In the current globalTechnologyIn an increasingly competitive environment, China should strengthen its self-confidence, increase investment, and cultivate more outstanding onesTechnologyTalent and innovation team. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen cooperation with the internationalTechnologyThe cooperation of enterprises to attract more outstanding talents and technical resources is truly realizedTechnologyAutonomy in the field.
In short, Korean companies have succeeded in breaking the continent by dividing the production process into multiple stepsEUV lithography machineBan. This breakthrough for South KoreaSemiconductorsThe development of the industry and the maintenance of technological strength are of paramount importance. At the same time, this incident also enlightened Chinese enterprises to strengthen independent research and development and improve their technical level to meet the challenges of the market.
