China Technology – Semi Field Trip Takeaways

MCU (microcontroller) is the basic control unit for a large number of electronic devices. Large international manufacturers occupied a major market share. Since 2021, the global MCU market has been suffering from a persistent shortage of stock, and prices have soared. Many downstream companies, especially car makers, are experiencing severe shortage of MUC chips. Chinese downstream customers have begun to accelerate the localization of MCU supply chains.I am optimistic about the performance of China MCU manufacturers this year, and I suggest paying attention to <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/gigadevice-semiconductor-beijing-a" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:27253:1" rel="noopener">GigaDevice Semiconductor (Beijing)-A (603986 CH)</a> , <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/espressif-systems-shanghai-co" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:30311:1" rel="noopener">Espressif Systems Shanghai Co (688018 CH)</a> , <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/sino-wealth-electronic-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:14697:1" rel="noopener">Sino Wealth Electronic (300327 CH)</a>
