Dongfeng Motor: Zhixin semiconductor IGBT module has been put into production with a total planned production capacity of 1.2 million units.

On July 7, according to the official account of "Dongfeng Automobile" Wechat, the Zhixin semiconductor IGBT module of Dongfeng Group was officially put into production today.

It is reported that the total planned production capacity of the project is 1.2 million, meeting the IGBT demand of 1 million new energy vehicles sold by Dongfeng Group by 2025; the first phase will achieve the packaging capacity of 300000 all-car specification-class modules per year, and build a power semiconductor industrialization base.

In order to solve the problem of "sticking neck" of power semiconductor devices, in June 2019, Dongfeng Company and two major central enterprises of CRRC established Zhixin Semiconductor Co., Ltd. in Wuhan, which aims to achieve independent control of the core resources of IGBT, support Dongfeng's transformation from manufacturing enterprises to "excellent science and technology enterprises that provide users with quality automotive products and services", and implement the "Dongfeng" plan and the "transition action" of scientific and technological innovation.

With the joint efforts of both sides, in only two years, the automobile power semiconductor production line based on the international first-class sixth-generation IGBT technology was completed in Dongfeng New Energy Automobile Industry Park No. 1, and the first batch of products were officially off the line. "the commissioning of Zhixin semiconductor IGBT module marks the successful structural upgrading of Dongfeng components products, and also marks another important step for Dongfeng to independently control the key core technology resources of new energy vehicles." Zhu Yanfeng, chairman of Dongfeng Company, said.

According to reports, the IGBT module put into production has good heat dissipation and anti-electromagnetic interference, can meet the high reliability requirements of vehicle specification-level products, and has great market potential.
