China Resources Microelectronics Limited (CR Micro) functions as an investment holding company with diverse operations across the semiconductor industry. Its core business activities encompass open foundry services, integrated circuit (IC) design, IC testing and packaging, and the development of discrete semiconductor devices. In its foundry segment, CR Micro offers advanced IC manufacturing solutions to both fabless design firms and integrated device manufacturers. These services are underpinned by a range of analog and power process technologies, such as mixed-signal, complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) logic, planar and trench double diffused metal oxide semiconductor (DMOS), bipolar and CMOS technology (BiCMOS), and BCDMOS devices. Beyond manufacturing, the company excels in the design and development of various semiconductor integrated circuit products. This includes microcontrollers (MCUs) and System-on-Chips (SoCs) for audio and video processing, as well as analog and mixed-signal ICs tailored for power management and LED driver applications. Furthermore, CR Micro develops consumer ICs and wafers, encompassing components like single-chip radio circuits, audio and calculation amplifiers, encoder/decoder circuits, LCDs, voice and music chips, clock and watch circuits, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and photoelectric coupled receiver chips. CR Micro also offers comprehensive IC assembly, testing, and packaging services to other semiconductor companies. Lastly, the company is involved in the development and production of power semiconductor discrete devices, which find applications in energy-efficient lighting, household appliances, industrial control systems, and personal computing. CR Micro maintains a global footprint, with operations spanning Mainland China, other Asian markets, the United States, and Europe. Founded in 1997, the company initially operated as CSMC Technologies Corporation before adopting its current name, China Resources Microelectronics Limited, in 2008. Headquartered in Wuxi, China, it is classified as a Red Chip company, a designation stemming from its listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. As of November 2, 2011, CR Micro has been a subsidiary of China Resources (Holdings) Co.,Ltd.
