Introducing the design of a 12-bit signal chip 'made-in-Vietnam'

This is the design of an ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) chip, a type of electronic chip that converts analog signals into digital signals.

On the afternoon of June 29, CT Group Corporation introduced an electronic chip design that converts analog signals into digital signals, called CTDA200M, with a resolution of 12 bits, and a sampling rate of up to 200 MSPS (Mega samples per second - a unit of measurement for sampling rate in digital systems).

According to the design team (a member company of CT Group), this is the first 12-bit chip design in Vietnam with a sampling rate of up to 200 MSPS.

The chip will be manufactured by Taiwan's TSMC Company (China) from July 2025.

CT Semiconductor's ATP semiconductor chip manufacturing plant will then carry out packaging and completion in November 2025, and begin commercialization in December 2025.

Mr. Tran Kim Chung, Chairman of CT Group, said that the creation of the chip design is the group's answer to developing core technology in Vietnam.

The company's design team completed the chip design in just six months, compared to two years for an ADC chip.

It is known that the CTDA200M chip will be used in many industries such as defense, security, transportation... especially this is an important chip in digital transformation.

At the launch, Mr. Nguyen Van Duoc, Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee, assessed that the launch of the chip design contributes to realizing Vietnam's aspiration to master core technology.

Ho Chi Minh City highly appreciates and will always accompany, support, and create the most favorable conditions for Vietnamese technology enterprises to develop and reach the world .

Semiconductor factory to open in 2025

At the workshop "Advanced packaging and testing technology: Opportunities for Vietnam" organized by Ho Chi Minh City National University in mid-March 2025, Mr. Tran Kim Chung said that CT Group is currently deploying three factories specializing in assembling, testing and packaging semiconductor products in Vietnam.

The first factory will be inaugurated in 2025 on DT743 road, near the Ho Chi Minh City National University urban area.

"This factory not only serves production but also creates practical research opportunities for students and lecturers. If supported by the Ho Chi Minh City High-Tech Park, we will continue to deploy the second semiconductor factory in Ho Chi Minh City in 2026," said Mr. Chung.

In addition, this unit is also implementing the establishment of 2 research and development centers (R&D) in Ho Chi Minh City (SS1 - Tan Binh project) and Hanoi . In 2027, it will open another factory in the North.
