On August 20, the 6th Integrated Circuit Design Innovation Conference & Application Expo (ICDIA 2026) was held in Nanjing. During the event, the highly anticipated “Strong Chip TOP100” list for 2026 was unveiled. Guided by the IC Design Innovation Alliance and the former “Core High-Base” National Science and Technology Major Project Expert Group, and hosted by the ICDIA Organizing Committee, this prestigious list recognizes outstanding industry contributions. FU6832S, the Fortior industrial-grade and dual-core motor-drive specific chip, was honored with the Market Pioneer Award, recognizing its robust technological innovation and large-scale market deployment. This award specifically acknowledges chips with high market maturity and notable success in large-scale implementation, serving as an objective endorsement of the product’s commercial viability and industrial practical value.
Targeting the Actual Challenges Faced by Customers with a Highly Adaptable and Controllable Drive Solution
Traditional motor drive solutions often suffer from IP dependency, complex development processes, inconsistent stability, difficult cost control, and limited scenario adaptability. In contrast, FU6832S takes a holistic approach covering customer R&D, design, mass production, and end-user application, systematically resolving practical challenges encountered during mass production and terminal usage.
Self-Developed Architecture – Mitigating Risks, Reducing Costs, and Boosting Efficiency.
FU6832S employs Fortior’s self-developed 8051+ME dual-core heterogeneous architecture, with complete independent intellectual property rights, entirely eliminating reliance on foreign IP. This frees customers from licensing constraints and supply chain risks, ensuring stable project development and mass production delivery, while effectively reducing long-term R&D and production costs.
Hardwired Algorithms – Lowering Complexity and Enhancing Performance.
The chip hardwires the complete motor control algorithms including FOC, PID, and SVPWM, replacing the traditional MCU software algorithm debugging model. This significantly reduces the software debugging workload and technical barriers for customers, effectively solving issues common in traditional solutions such as lengthy tuning cycles, difficult parameter convergence, high-speed jitter, excessive noise, and insufficient stability. Higher control precision and operational smoothness directly enhance the end-user experience and overall product quality.
High Integration and Wide Voltage Range – Simplifying Design, Reducing Costs, and Improving Efficiency.
The chip integrates rich peripherals including pre-drivers, LDO, high-speed ADC, and hardware PID, combined with a small package and 5–36V wide voltage adaptability. This helps customers greatly simplify peripheral circuits and PCB design, reduce external component count, shorten R&D cycles, lower debugging difficulty, and achieve rational optimization of overall BOM costs.
In end applications, the chip reliably supports sustained, heavy-load operating conditions, helping customers reduce equipment repair rates and subsequent maintenance costs, while steadily enhancing the operational reliability of end products.
Moreover, the chip offers strong versatility and broad scenario applicability, covering diverse end applications such as electric power tools, communications cooling, industrial equipment, smart small appliances, personal care products, and various fans. It supports unified selection across multiple product lines, avoiding redundant development with multiple solutions and streamlining R&D and supply chain management.
Proven Through Mass Production – Delivering Stable and Reliable Deployment Support
Backed by mature and stable product performance and broad scenario adaptability, FU6832S has achieved long-term, large-scale market penetration. As of mid-2026, cumulative chip shipments have exceeded 128 million units, with annual shipments steadily surpassing 32 million units, making it a benchmark product in China’s BLDC motor driver IC sector with solid mass-production performance and high industry recognition.
The extensive mass-production validation fully demonstrates the product’s consistency, stability, and reliability, effectively reducing customers’ new product launch risks, end-product return rates, and post-maintenance costs. This helps domestic terminal manufacturers achieve cost reduction and efficiency improvement while maintaining quality upgrades, steadily enhancing their product market competitiveness.
Looking ahead, Fortior will continue to deepen its focus on the motor drive-specific chip niche, adhere to its independent architectural innovation path, and persistently refine cost-effective, high-reliability chip solutions while expanding diverse application scenarios. With a pragmatic R&D attitude and solid implementation capabilities, the company remains committed to strengthening the competitiveness of China’s BLDC motor control and driver chip industry and contributing sustained, long-term momentum to the localization of integrated circuits.
