Abstract

As the cornerstone of the digital economy in the information age, the essence of integrated circuit (IC) chips is to represent and process information by using physical phenomena. The IC challenges faced by China are not only in the field of fabrication, but also in the fields of electronics design automation (EDA) and talent training. Based on a review of the background and current situations of IC technologies, this study analyzes advantages, issues that need attention, and potential areas of technological breakthrough in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
