We usually discuss FPGAs such as Altera, Xilinx, Intel, etc., but we have never touched on Chinese FPGAs. Many people are not even aware of the existence of domestic FPGAs. Below are some domestic FPGA companies and products (listed in no particular order, titles are just gimmicks). For those not covered, please leave a message to let more people know about Chinese FPGAs. If there is any infringement in the content, please contact the editor to delete it.

Hercules Microelectronics(Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. is registered in Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone. Hercules is one of the earliest enterprises outside the United States to enter independent research and development, large-scale production, and mass sales of general-purpose FPGA chips and new generation heterogeneous programmable computing chips. Hercules is one of the earliest enterprises outside the United States to enter into independent research and development, large-scale production, and mass sales of general-purpose FPGA chips and new generation heterogeneous programmable computing chips.
FPGA product series:
- HME-R (River) series products
The R (River) series products are positioned in the fields of wearable devices and portable mobile terminals (such as LTE and future 5G smartphones, mobile intelligent terminals (tablets) such as iPAD/eBook, sales and service POS terminals), IoT terminals, intelligent security monitoring equipment, personal medical monitoring equipment, solar photovoltaic equipment, and various terminals related to the Beidou industry. The company has successfully mass-produced two "River" series low-power FPGA chips using a 40 nanometer process technology, and developed various industry application solutions such as smartphones, the Internet of Things, AR/VR, etc.
2.HME - M
The M (Mountain) series products are positioned in application areas with low-cost microcontroller processing units and high-intensity processing logic as the core, such as video drivers, industrial control, information security, communication terminals, medical instruments, smart homes, etc. In response to the characteristics of these markets, the company brings added value to application designers, system integrators, and end product consumers in terms of design flexibility and diversity, lower system costs, and shorter development cycles. The company has successively released dozens of "Mountain" series products, providing users with various combinations of product choices (pure FPGA, FPGA+Memory, or FPGA+MCU+Memory, etc.) to meet the flexible and diverse application needs of different markets, meeting the extensive demands of the mid to low end market worth billions of dollars.
After a long period of technological accumulation and market development, FPGA companies in the United States have reached a giant state, and various FPGA products have also undergone market baptism and deep user trust testing. From the current perspective, there are numerous companies in China that produce FPGA chips, and there is a trend of a hundred schools of thought competing. But most FPGA products have not been tested in the market, and countrymen people also know little about them. In the current Chinese economic situation and trade war, domestic FPGAs are full of unlimited opportunities and challenges. I hope that in the future,Chinese FPGA can also emerge as a giant.
