Acquired Sensitec, a German company
According to the official account article published in November 2021, Ximi Technology independently mastered the design and preparation technology of the advanced fourth generation magnetic sensor technology-TMR (Tunnel Magnetoresistive), realized large-scale mass production in current sensors, magnetic identification sensors and other products, and won benchmarking customers in the industrial and automotive fields.
Some industry insiders say that the magnetic sensor industry has extremely high technical barriers, talent barriers, market barriers, and the global market is mainly dominated by international sensor giants such as NXP, Infineon, Allegro and so on.
With the financial support and industry promotion of investment institutions such as China Investment and Investment, Xi Magnetic Technology completed the acquisition of Sensitec, a world-famous magnetoresistive sensor company, on September 28th, 2021.
Sensitec has a world-class magnetoresistive sensor design and manufacturing technology, with independent wafer manufacturing capabilities. For a long time for ADI, KUKA, Continental Group and other well-known global companies to provide motion control sensors and solutions.
Through the above acquisition, Ximeng Technology can make up for the lack of wafer manufacturing capacity of the sensor core chip and build its overall chip IDM model.
In addition, according to the information on the website of the Bengbu Municipal people's Government on April 19, 2023, Ximeng Technology expanded its capacity after entering the sensing valley in China (Bengbu), becoming the single factory with the largest scale in the manufacture, production and sales of current sensors in the country. the company plans to apply for the listing of Kechuang board.
For Ximeng technology listing and other related information, "Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily" reporter called the company to interview, its staff said that "it is not convenient to disclose at present."
