The Zonghui Xingguang high-end optical communication chip project with a total investment of 550 million yuan was completed and put into production
According to the official Weibo of Wujin today, on the morning of September 10, the Zonghui Xingguang high-end optical communication chip project with a total investment of 550 million yuan was completed and put into production in Wujin National High-tech Zone. The project is dedicated to the research and development and manufacturing of high-end compound semiconductor chips.
The newly-commissioned project covers an area of 40 mu and has a construction area of 28,000 square meters. After reaching full production capacity, it will form large-scale production capacity for gallium arsenide and indium phosphide chips.
Founded in 2015, Zonghui Xingguang is an optoelectronic semiconductor company dedicated to providing customers with high-performance vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) chips and modules, optical communication laser chips, and radio frequency epitaxial wafers. The company primarily develops and produces VCSEL chips, high-speed optical communication chips, devices, and modules, with applications in consumer electronics, 3D sensing, virtual reality, augmented reality, autonomous driving, biomedical sensors, and high-speed optical communications.
The application scenarios of VCSEL laser chips are rapidly expanding with the development of 3D perception, autonomous driving, artificial intelligence and other fields, and the market demand for high-performance, high-reliability, and high-speed high-end VCSEL laser chips has increased dramatically.
In 2019, Zonghui Xingguang achieved breakthroughs in epitaxial growth technology for key semiconductor materials, becoming the first company in China to achieve mass production of VCSELs. By August 2023, the company had shipped 100 million VCSEL chips and expanded into the automotive electronics and optical communications sectors. To date, Zonghui Xingguang has completed 11 rounds of financing, backed by over 20 renowned VC/PE and industrial investors, including Huawei, Xiaomi, BYD, DJI, Hesai Technology, RoboSense, Wuyuefeng Capital, Gaorong Capital, and Glory Ventures, raising over 2 billion yuan in total.
