Recently, Beijing Bopixel Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Bopixel") has achieved a major technological breakthrough in the industry: its self-developed "8K 1MHz Deep Ultraviolet TDI Line Scan Camera" has been included in the Beijing Municipal 2025 Third Batch of First (Set) Major Technical Equipment Catalog (Semiconductor Field) and has received a certification certificate. This is the first semiconductor camera to be explicitly recognized by the state as a "key component of semiconductor measurement equipment," marking the first national-level acknowledgment of the core role of semiconductor cameras in key integrated circuit manufacturing processes and filling a gap in national-level independent certification in this specific field.
This certification not only represents national recognition of Bopixel's innovative capabilities in deep ultraviolet optics, ultra-high-speed imaging, and TDI technology but also signifies the first inclusion of a "semiconductor camera" as a key component of semiconductor measurement equipment in the national first (set) equipment certification. It highlights that semiconductor cameras have been elevated from functional components to core key components in the integrated circuit field, underscoring the unprecedented importance placed on semiconductor cameras within the national semiconductor industry planning and support system.
The successful inclusion of Bopixel's camera underscores the irreplaceable role of semiconductor cameras as "key components of measurement equipment," solidifying their core position in high-end manufacturing closed-loop systems. It also injects new momentum into the autonomous and controllable process of key components for domestic semiconductor measurement equipment. Bopixel will further increase investment in foundational technologies and key components such as optics, sensing, and image processing, collectively strengthening the technological foundation for the independent development of China's semiconductor industry.
