Lingsi Technology launches small size, high performance MEMS integrated navigation system MS-6222
According to MEMS Consulting, MS-6222 is a small-size ( 60mm × 60mm × 15mm ), high-precision and high-performance MEMS integrated navigation system independently developed by Lingsi Technology. It adopts high-strength packaging, built-in high-precision MEMS IMU and high-precision GNSS , and adopts multi-source Kalman filter fusion algorithm. It supports dual GNSS antennas, rich interfaces, and supports wide voltage. It can provide continuous and reliable high-precision positioning and navigation information and three-dimensional attitude information in complex environments.
its a range 55nm to 7nm.
Does that means SMEE has 7nm capable DUVi?
ASML has different version of DUVi based on different overlay accuracy so that sounds like each scanner has its own mask overlay accuracy built in.
Mainland China's mature chips have slashed prices and expanded production capacity, forcing Taiwanese manufacturers to withdraw or transform
In the $56.3 billion mature node chip industry using 28nm or higher processes, mainland China's wafer foundries are rapidly gaining market share. This trend has prompted the Biden administration to launch an investigation and sounded the alarm for Taiwan's industrial sector. Mainland China's foundries are threatening the long-term dominance of Powerchip, UMC and World Advanced in the automotive and display panel chip markets through drastic price cuts and aggressive capacity expansion plans

Well the resolution of all ASML immersion scanners is 38nm but they keep pushing immersion towards high end nodes with more metrology and better sensors. DBO allows them as far I understand to take measures of the wafer marks and then that information is passed to the scanner so the scanner can do the adjustment necessary to print the next layer accurately.

More Korean manufacturers are setting themselves in China to avoid losing market share to domestic players. Ironically US exports controls are forcing Chinese companies to look for local suppliers more and more.
Sanais receives investment from Chuxin Fund and is a leading domestic semiconductor wafer carrier company
Chuxin Fund recently completed an exclusive investment in Sanais Semiconductor Materials (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Sanais"), helping to introduce advanced technologies of overseas high-quality semiconductor industries into China. Sanais' current round of financing will be used for product development, technology research and development, production process optimization and team expansion, and continue to provide domestic customers with high-quality semiconductor 12-inch wafer carrier products .
SANAISI is a joint venture between Nano-G (Suzhou) Technology Co., Ltd. and 3S, a South Korean listed company, which is engaged in the research, development, production and sales of semiconductor wafer carriers. The company is committed to providing all-round, high-precision carrying and transportation products for semiconductor processes, and improving the semiconductor application consumables industry chain.
In the early days of its establishment, 3S received full support from 3S, a world-leading wafer carrier company in South Korea. It has accumulated dozens of key technologies in wafer carrier R&D and design, and has mastered the core technology of high-end wafer carriers. It is expected to lead the domestic wafer carrier industry and achieve a breakthrough in localization.

Puretech's Zhuhai semiconductor parts cleaning project started, with an annual cleaning capacity of 360,000 pieces
According to Zhuhai High-tech Zone, on February 10, the Zhuhai Zhiwei Semiconductor Parts Cleaning Project officially started. This marks an important step in Shanghai Zhichun Technology's strategic layout in South China, which will further promote the upgrading and development of semiconductor parts cleaning services and bring new vitality and opportunities to the development of semiconductor industry clusters in South China. After the project is completed, it can provide precision cleaning and refurbishment services for key process equipment parts for semiconductor wafer factories in the Pearl River Delta, further improving the industrial chain and industrial ecology of Zhuhai integrated circuits.
On September 23, 2024, the Pure Technology Semiconductor Parts Cleaning Project was signed and settled in Zhuhai High-tech Zone. The project was introduced by the Zhuhai High-tech Zone and the Hengqin Guangdong-Macao Deep Cooperation Zone to build a large-scale semiconductor cleaning factory in Zhuhai High-tech Zone. The project has a total plant area of 4,200 square meters, equipped with a Class 10 dust-free workshop, including 4 independent process cleaning production lines and surface treatment production lines, with an annual cleaning capacity of 360,000 pieces. It mainly provides precision cleaning and refurbishment services for key process equipment parts for semiconductor wafer factories , extending the service life of equipment parts and reducing factory operating costs. After completion, the project can provide "2-hour supporting circle" services for semiconductor wafer factories in the Pearl River Delta.
