Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, February 7 (Xinhua) - Question: Why is the "basic skill" of the electronic industry so important?
Xinhua News Agency reporter Zhang Xinxin
Basic electronic components, which are important components related to the digital economy, are entering a critical period of development.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology recently released the "Action Plan for the Development of the Basic Electronic Component Industry (2021-2023)", which clearly proposes to promote breakthroughs in the basic electronic component industry, and the total sales of electronic components will reach 2100 billion yuan by 2023, conveying the message that China is accelerating the consolidation of the "basic skills" of the electronic industry.
Why should we accelerate the development of basic electronic components? Firstly, let's understand what electronic components are.
There are a wide variety of electronic components and their applications, ranging from the well-known resistors, capacitors, and inductors to the widely used micro and special motors and sensors in the field of automation, to the essential electroacoustic devices and printed circuit boards in mobile phones and computers, all of which broadly belong to the category of electronic components.
It may sound like a niche, but it is closely related to our lives. Taking multi-layer chip ceramic capacitors as an example, the average usage of each mobile phone exceeds 1000, the usage of each communication base station exceeds 6000, and the usage of each new energy vehicle exceeds 10000.
Yang Xudong, Deputy Director of the Electronic Information Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that there are currently over 20 million types of electronic components produced globally, and electronic components have penetrated into various corners of the economy and society. It can be said that "no components, no products". Especially in the digital age, the significance of basic electronic components is particularly important.
What is the current development status of electronic components in China?
Gu Qun, Secretary General of the China Electronic Components Industry Association, said that China has formed the world's largest production and sales scale, relatively complete categories, and basically complete industrial chain of electronic components industry system.
Taking semiconductors as an example, according to Tianyancha Professional Edition data, there are currently over 73000 semiconductor related enterprises in China with a business scope that includes "semiconductors" and their status is in operation, existing, moving in, or moving out. Data also shows that there are approximately 18000 enterprises in China engaged in 5G and industrial internet related businesses. All of these are closely related to electronic components.
There are many enterprises and a large scale, but the quality still needs to be improved.
It should be noted that electronic components have shortcomings such as a large but weak industry, a lack of leading enterprises, and weak basic capabilities, especially in many high-end electronic components. In terms of optoelectronic devices and other aspects, it is still difficult for us to effectively meet the demand of the downstream complete machine market. "Gu Qun said that improving the quality of industrial development and ensuring the safety and stability of the industrial chain are crucial.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology proposes that by 2023, the competitiveness of electronic component advantageous products will be further enhanced, and the level of industrial chain security supply will be significantly improved to meet the scale demand of the information technology market.
Key technologies need to be broken through. The document focuses on a number of key product technologies, striving to make significant progress in the fields of RF filters, high-speed connectors, and other product technologies.
