Following the successful initial production contract with HyperAccel, mass production volumes are projected to expand steadily, driven by follow-on purchase orders (POs) aligned with HyperAccel&#8217;s ongoing service rollout and expansion.<\/p>\n<p>The chip is an accelerator optimized for AI inference workloads, including large language models (LLMs), and is a &#8220;Big Die&#8221; of more than 500 mm\u00b2. As die size increases, managing power consumption, heat dissipation, and manufacturing yield becomes far more challenging. SEMIFIVE brought this demanding advanced-node project into successful mass production by delivering a complete turnkey solution spanning front-end design and verification through packaging, testing, and volume manufacturing supply.<\/p>\n<p>This achievement marks a full-scale ramp-up in SEMIFIVE&#8217;s growth. Following the mass production of the &#8216;Wisenet 9&#8242; AI ASIC chip for Hanwha Vision&#8217;s security cameras in Q3 of last year, a high-performance computing (HPC) AI chip for a Japanese customer in Q2 of this year, and the data center AI inference accelerator in Q3 of this year, SEMIFIVE has added another key mass-production program to its pipeline. This demonstrates SEMIFIVE&#8217;s ability to build stable, recurring revenue beyond one-time NRE projects through mass production. By aligning with customers&#8217; long-term product roadmaps and diversifying its portfolio across various application domains and technical complexities, the company is strengthening both business continuity and earnings momentum.<\/p>\n<p>Backed by this expanding production lineup, the company is experiencing rapid financial growth. SEMIFIVE secured KRW 42.3 billion in new mass-production orders in the first half of this year alone\u2014nearly double its full-year order intake of KRW 21.2 billion for the entirety of last year. Quarterly order intake surged by 71% from KRW 15.6 billion in Q1 to KRW 26.7 billion in Q2, with overseas orders accounting for 45% of Q2 bookings, marking the full-scale activation of its global business pipeline. With a virtuous cycle now established, design wins are translating into mass-production revenue. The quality of order intake has also improved, supported by stable OEM volumes backed by secured end customers and high-value data center ASIC projects.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As the AI landscape shifts from training to inference, demand for ASIC accelerators in data centers is surging,&#8221; said CEO of SEMIFIVE. &#8220;This successful mass production is a significant milestone that validates our unmatched execution capabilities in advanced processes. By combining our customer&#8217;s innovative architecture with SEMIFIVE&#8217;s comprehensive turnkey capabilities, we seamlessly executed the entire journey from design to volume production for a large-area die of more than 500 mm\u00b2. We are committed to carrying the strong mass-production momentum demonstrated in the first half through the remainder of the year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>SOURCE SEMIFIVE<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/rt.prnewswire.com\/rt.gif?NewsItemId=CN42212&amp;Transmission_Id=202609080120PR_NEWS_USPR_____CN42212&amp;DateId=20260908\" style=\"border:0px; width:1px; height:1px;\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Secures initial mass production contract for HyperAccel&#8217;s AI inference accelerator, Bertha, with follow-on purchase orders anticipated as services&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":164949,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[24,25,150,2352,152,60901,21559,2011,80430],"class_list":["post-164948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-ai","tag-ai","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-computer-electronics","tag-computer-hardware","tag-contracts","tag-electronic-components","tag-electronic-design-automation","tag-semiconductors","tag-semifive"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/164948","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=164948"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/164948\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/164949"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=164948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=164948"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=164948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
