This can be called a huge breakthrough for the semiconductor industry in Vietnam and thereby affirms the ability to design chips and master core technology of the Vietnamese engineering team - from Diginal company (a member of CT Group).
Strategic technology products for every country
In the era of comprehensive digital transformation and the trend of developing digital twins, smart devices and systems must be able to "sense", "understand" and "respond" accurately to the real world . ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) and DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) chips are the key "bridges" that help collect and convert physical signals into digital data, creating a foundation for simulation, optimization and real-time operation - the core element to build digital twins and promote digital transformation in all fields.
Many people still do not understand what this chip actually does. When asked this question to ChatGPT, this AI application replied that ADC and DAC are indispensable "bridges" that help electronic devices understand and interact with the world around them. ADC converts analog signals - such as sound, light, temperature - into digital signals for the chip to process, while DAC performs the opposite process, controlling speakers, motors or sensor systems.
In security and defense, they are integrated into radar systems, precision-guided weapons, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), surveillance and navigation systems. In smart agriculture , ADC/DACs support sensors to measure humidity, temperature, soil quality, and control automatic irrigation systems, helping to optimize productivity and save resources. For self-driving cars, they play a key role in camera systems, LiDAR sensors, radars, and smart driving assistance, helping vehicles detect and handle situations quickly. In AI devices and consumer electronics, ADC/DACs are present in microphones, headphones, smart speakers, and virtual reality (VR) devices, helping to reproduce realistic and smooth sounds and images. In medicine, they are used in ultrasound machines, heart rate monitors, and diagnostic imaging devices (CT, MRI), improving accuracy and reliability in diagnosis and treatment. Thanks to that, ADC and DAC are considered as indispensable "bridges" between the physical world and the digital world, playing a fundamental role in the modern technology era.
More importantly, semiconductor chips are the key to the comprehensive digital transformation process, supporting the construction of digital twins for complex systems, helping to connect, analyze and process huge amounts of data in real time. Mastering semiconductor chip technology means holding the "key" to developing an independent digital economy , enhancing competitiveness and protecting national security in the digital age.
Why is ADC chip important to Vietnam?
In phase 3 of digital transformation - the most advanced phase with the focus on artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), big data and total automation - the ability to digitize the real world becomes a mandatory foundation. The ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) chip is the core component that takes on this role.
Technically, ADC is responsible for converting continuous analog signals (e.g. sound, light, temperature, pressure) into digital signals, helping microprocessors (MCU), FPGAs or AI systems to process and make decisions quickly and accurately. Important technical parameters such as resolution, sampling rate and noise level directly determine the accuracy, reliability and performance of the entire system.
In today's digital transformation, systems require real-time data acquisition and analysis, as well as processing massive amounts of information with ultra-low latency. ADCs are the gateway to connecting billions of sensors on IoT platforms, operating industrial robots, controlling autonomous vehicles, optimizing smart factories, and supporting precision medicine applications.
Representatives of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee and Chairman of CT Group Tran Kim Chung performed the ceremony to launch the ADC chip design on June 29.
For Vietnam, designing and developing its own ADC chips not only helps improve its technological capabilities but also puts the country at a higher position in the global value chain, especially in the front-end design and system-level optimization stages, which bring the greatest added value. Mastering core technology helps reduce dependence on imported strategic components, increase the localization rate, and ensure quality control and security right from the start.
More importantly, ADC chips play a fundamental role in building digital ecosystems: from smart cities, smart grids, precision agriculture, to digital healthcare solutions. This is a stepping stone for Vietnam to develop "Make in Vietnam" products with high technology and intelligence content, ready to compete in the international market.
Therefore, the ADC chip is not only an electronic component, but also considered a "technological key" to help Vietnam make a breakthrough in the comprehensive digital transformation period, affirming the country's position on the global technology map.
