Title: The electronics industry "basic skills", why is it so important?
Xinhua News Agency reporter Zhang Xinxin
Basic electronic components, an important component related to the digital economy, are ushering in a critical period of development.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology recently released the "Basic Electronic Components Industry Development Action Plan (2021-2023)", clearly proposing to promote the basic electronic components industry to achieve breakthroughs. By 2023, the total sales of electronic components will reach 2.100 billion yuan, conveying my country's accelerated consolidation. Information on the "fundamental skills" of the electronics industry.
Why accelerate the development of basic electronic components?
First of all, let's understand what electronic components are.
There are a wide variety of electronic components and applications, ranging from the most familiar resistors, capacitors, and inductors, to micro motors and sensors that are widely used in the field of automation, to electro-acoustic devices and printed circuit boards that are essential for mobile phones and computers. , In a broad sense belong to the category of electronic components.
It sounds very "niche", but it is closely related to our lives.
Taking multilayer chip ceramic capacitors as an example, the average number of mobile phones used exceeds 1,000, each communication base station uses more than 6,000, and each new energy vehicle uses more than 10,000.
Yang Xudong, deputy director of the Electronic Information Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that there are currently more than 20 million types of electronic components in mass production worldwide, and electronic components have penetrated into every corner of the economy and society. It can be said that "no devices, no products".
Especially in the digital age, the significance of basic electronic components is extremely important.
What is the current development status of electronic components in my country?
Gu Qun, secretary-general of the China Electronic Components Industry Association, said that my country has formed an electronic component industrial system with the largest production and sales scale in the world, a relatively complete category, and a basically complete industrial chain.
Taking semiconductors as an example, the data of the professional version of Tianyancha shows that there are currently more than 73,000 semiconductor-related companies in my country that include "semiconductors" in their business scope and whose status is active, surviving, moving in or moving out.
The data also shows that there are approximately 18,000 companies engaged in 5G and industrial Internet-related businesses in my country.
These are all closely related to electronic components.
There are many enterprises and large scale, but the quality still needs to be improved.
"It should be noted that electronic components have deficiencies such as large but not strong industries, lack of leading companies, and weak basic capabilities, especially for many high-end electronic components. There is still a big gap. In terms of optoelectronic devices, it is still difficult for us to be effective. Meet the needs of the downstream complete machine market." Gu Qun said that it is important to improve the quality of industrial development and ensure the safety and stability of the industrial chain.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology proposed that by 2023, the competitiveness of superior products of electronic components will be further strengthened, and the security supply level of the industrial chain will be significantly improved to meet the scale of the information technology market.
Breakthrough in key technologies.
"The document focuses on a number of key product technologies, and strives to make significant progress in the fields of radio frequency filters, high-speed connectors, etc.," said Huang Zihe, vice president of China Electronics and Information Industry Development Research Institute, especially for the broad prospects and traction of 5G. In a strong field, we will strive to improve the modernization level of the industrial chain supply chain from point to point.
Market applications must keep up.
"We focus on a number of basic electronic components that are urgently needed in the development of the industry, have an important foundation status, and have huge market potential, and encourage the industry to cooperate extensively with upstream electronic materials and downstream chemical machinery, equipment and equipment to accelerate market applications." Yang Xudong said.
The industrial chain must be safer.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology specifically proposed that it will increase policy support, cultivate a group of large-scale enterprises, and strive to achieve a revenue scale of 15 companies exceeding 10 billion yuan, and a group of specialized and new "little giant" enterprises and manufacturing single champion enterprises will emerge.
