Recently, Guoxin Technology announced that as of June 30, 2025, the cumulative shipment of its self-developed automotive-grade MCU chip CCFC2012BC has successfully exceeded 10.992375 million units. This milestone achievement marks a significant breakthrough for the company in the competitive automotive chip market, showcasing the strong capabilities and unlimited potential of domestic ‘Chinese chips’.
Outstanding Performance: The All-Rounder of Independent Domestic CPUs
The CCFC2012BC is based on Guoxin Technology’s self-developed C*Core PowerPC core (compatible with NXP e200), with a clock frequency of up to 120MHz, meeting the stringent AEC-Q100 Grade 1 standards for automotive electronics, and has passed ISO 26262 ASIL-B functional safety certification. Its core performance advantages include:
High Integration
It integrates 1.5MB FLASH, 128KB SRAM, supports 8 channels of CAN/CAN FD, 10 channels of LIN, 6 channels of SPI, and 2 12-bit ADCs (a total of 53 channels), capable of handling multi-protocol communication and complex timing control simultaneously.
Flexible Expansion
It offers various packaging forms such as LQFP176/144/100/64, adaptable to the diverse needs of body control.
Safe and Reliable
It has a built-in ECC protection mechanism to ensure zero defects in data storage and transmission, meeting the ‘zero tolerance’ quality requirements of automotive electronics.
Research and Development Challenges: Breaking Through Trust Barriers with Technology
Technological innovation and breakthroughs are the core driving forces for the CCFC2012BC chip to gain market recognition. At the early stage of chip development, the project team faced dual challenges of needing to be compatible with the entire product line of SPC5604 and SPC5607 series and significantly compressing the development cycle. Relying on Guoxin Technology’s years of accumulated experience in automotive chip design and deep technical reserves, the R&D team successfully overcame compatibility design challenges through efficient collaboration and precise problem-solving, laying a crucial foundation for the timely launch of the product.
During the official product launch phase in 2022, to seize the opportunity presented by the industry’s ‘chip shortage’, the R&D team completed the preparation of testing software ahead of schedule, enabling testing and delivery to customer application testing within several working days after the chip arrival; as the customer entered the production phase, the team continued to provide full technical support, promptly responding to and resolving issues that arose during production, ensuring stable operation of the customer’s production line and smooth product rollout. In response to a stringent testing requirement from a leading OEM for ‘low-power wake-up at high temperatures for 100,000 times’ — a test that previously required international chip manufacturers to modify hardware designs to meet — Guoxin Technology’s R&D team conducted a comprehensive review and optimization from the design source, ultimately passing the test without adjusting the hardware scheme, fully validating the technical reliability of domestic chips.
In July 2022, amid the industry’s ‘chip shortage’ wave, a leading OEM faced the risk of vehicle production stagnation due to a lack of domestic replacement chips for its airbag module. After evaluation, the CCFC2012BC chip met the technical requirements of this OEM, prompting Guoxin Technology to initiate an emergency project. At that time, the chip had just achieved mass production, and the company quickly dispatched a technical team to the city where the OEM was located, implementing a 24-hour standby mechanism: completing hardware design and board return work within one week, followed by software porting and vehicle testing within another week, and closely tracking high-temperature road testing, ultimately ensuring the project successfully achieved mass production and effectively alleviating the customer’s production crisis.
Wide Application: Covering Core Scenarios in Automotive Electronics
Guoxin Technology’s CCFC2012BC chip is widely used in the automotive electronics field, covering multiple key application areas such as airbags, body control, gateways, air conditioning controllers, BMS, and VCU.
In airbags, Guoxin Technology has engaged in extensive cooperation with domestic airbag module manufacturers. For example, in collaboration with Songyuan Co., they adopted a supporting solution of ‘CCFC201XBC series + CCL1600B series’ for Songyuan’s airbag controller project, where the CCFC2012BC serves as the main control chip, which has been fully validated for its reliability and stability in airbag systems.
In body control, the CCFC2012BC can be used for BCM applications such as window, wiper, air conditioning control, door locks, doors, seats, tire pressure monitoring, and switches, as well as for new energy VCU, all of which have achieved mass production.
In automotive gateway applications, the CCFC2012BC’s powerful multi-protocol communication capabilities enable efficient data transmission and conversion between different automotive networks. Additionally, the CCFC2012BC series chips have also been successfully applied in customers’ chassis products such as shifters, ABS, and EPBI, achieving bulk supply.
Currently, the CCFC2012BC series chips have been scaled up for delivery in leading automotive companies such as BYD, SAIC, FAW, Changan, Chery, Geely, and Dongfeng, covering over 80 models. The widespread application of the CCFC2012BC chip in these automakers fully demonstrates that its product performance has received high market recognition.
Though the journey is arduous, the gold emerges after sifting through the sand
The cumulative shipment of the CCFC2012BC chip exceeding ten million units is an important milestone in Guoxin Technology’s development history, and it reflects the company’s achievements over more than a decade of deep cultivation in the automotive electronics chip field and continuous breakthroughs in technological challenges. However, this is not the end. The path to climbing core technologies has no shortcuts and is endless. In the future, Guoxin Technology will continue to increase R&D investment, promote more automotive-grade chips to achieve large-scale applications in different scenarios, and always adhere to the principle of ‘customer first, customer foremost’, providing customers with higher quality products and solutions, and contributing more to the high-quality development of the domestic automotive chip industry.
