HAAWKING

Beijing Zhongke Haoxin Technology Co., Ltd., operating under the brand HAAWKING, is a fabless semiconductor company specializing in the design and supply of digital signal processors (DSPs). The company was formally established in 2019, emerging from a core research team at the National Engineering Research Center for Special Integrated Circuit Design, which had been focused on processor development since 2007. The founding team, including Founder and Chairman Dr. Li Renwei, an associate researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and co-founders Wu Junning and Zhou Shengang, transitioned their extensive research from the academy into a commercial entity.

HAAWKING's core business revolves around developing proprietary DSP chips based on the open-source RISC-V instruction set architecture. This strategic choice allows the company to navigate the high intellectual property barriers that characterize the traditional DSP market, long dominated by international firms like Texas Instruments and Analog Devices. The firm serves a diverse client base in sectors such as industrial control, motor drives, digital power, renewable energy including photovoltaics and energy storage, new energy vehicles, and white goods. Revenue is generated through the sale of its semiconductor products.

The company's flagship product line is the Haawking-HX2000 series, a range of DSPs designed for high real-time performance applications. These chips are engineered to offer superior performance in mathematical computations compared to competing models at similar frequencies, with demonstrated speed improvements of 50% to 110% in tasks like vector calculations and floating-point operations. To support its hardware, HAAWKING provides a comprehensive ecosystem, including a self-developed Haawking IDE, flash programming tools, simulators, and extensive algorithm and driver libraries to streamline client development cycles and reduce migration costs.
