About Hefei Haitu Microelectronics
Hefei Haitu Microelectronics Co., Ltd. operates as a fabless semiconductor company focused on the design and development of high-performance CMOS image sensor (CIS) chips. Established in 2018 and headquartered in Hefei, China, the company was initiated through a strategic investment by the Fuhuang Group, in collaboration with a team of overseas returnees and technical experts from the University of Science and Technology of China. The company's chairman and general manager is Zhou Yifan. The core team comprises professionals with extensive experience from well-known IC design companies and wafer foundries such as Hamamatsu, Sanyo, ON Semiconductor, Huahong, and TSMC.
Read full description
The company's business model revolves around the research, development, design, and sales of its specialized sensor chips. Haitu Microelectronics targets a global market, with a particular focus on sectors that require high-speed and high-definition imaging capabilities. Its client base spans industries such as industrial inspection, intelligent transportation, machine vision, scientific research, automotive electronics, and medical treatment. To support its global ambitions and talent acquisition, the company has established research and development centers in Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Tokyo, in addition to its Hefei headquarters.
Haitu Microelectronics' product portfolio includes a range of CMOS, X-ray, and infrared sensors. A key technological differentiator is its specialization in global shutter technology, which enables accurate, real-time image capture of high-speed and moving objects. The company has developed its own core pixel and circuit IP libraries and has applied proprietary technologies for multiple pixel storage node shading and anti-crosstalk to its mass-produced products. This results in image sensors with extremely low parasitic light response. Since its inception, the company has reached significant milestones, including launching its first CMOS image sensor in 2020 and having over ten products in mass production by 2023. The company has secured substantial funding through several rounds, including a Series A+ round in late 2022 and a significant Pre-B round in 2023, attracting investment from firms like Addor Capital, Jintong Capital, and various state-backed funds.
