On September 19, Innoscience's 3rd-generation semiconductor base in Suzhou held a ceremony for moving in equipment. It means the base in Suzhou has started to prepare for mass production, marking the completion of the world's largest gallium nitride plant.
After the completion of the project, it will become the world's largest research and development platform of the third generation of semiconductor, integrating R&D, design, production of epitaxial wafer, chip manufacturing and test. The project will produce 65,000 pieces of 8-inch gallium nitride wafers per month when it runs at a full capacity. Its products will provide core electronic components for independent innovation and development of strategic emerging industries such as 5G mobile communications, new energy vehicles and driverless vehicles.
The base is located in Fenhu Lake High-Tech Zone, Wujiang District, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province, covering a total area of 245,000 square meters and with a total investment of more than RMB6 billion (USD879 million) in the first phase. The base is expected to start the trial production at the end of this year.
