（编辑 丛可心） 证券日报网2月25日讯 ，赛微电子在接受调研者提问时表示，随着万物互联与人工智能的兴起，作为集 成电路细分行业的MEMS获得了更广阔的市场空间和业务机会。传统的传感器、执行器和无源结构器件 逐步被替代，MEMS技术的渗透率得以进一步提高。根据世界权威半导体市场研究机构 YoleDevelopment发布的《StatusoftheMEMSIndustry2025》，全球MEMS市场规模将由2024年的154亿美 元增长至2030年的192亿美元，CAGR（年均复合增长率）达到3.7%。MEMS行业Foundry模式与IDM模 式并存，代工企业通过支持Fabless、Fablite设计公司快速创新，推动MEMS生态发展。公司非常突出的 特点在于，公司是国内业界领先、极少数以Pure-Foundry模式运营的MEMS芯片专业制造厂商，包括其 他商业模式下的竞争对手主要为台积电、Teledyne、IMT、X-FAB、芯联集成、华鑫微纳、广州增芯、 上海先进、华虹宏力、华润微、士兰微等。截至目前，不同MEMS应用领域的竞争格局存在不同差异， 通信计算、生物医疗、工业汽车和消费电子领域的中高端市场已经开 ...

2026年2月25日，赛微电子披露接待调研公告，公司于2月25日接待淡水泉基金、孝庸基金、领丰资本、 腾飞资本等4家机构调研。 调研情况显示，赛微电子专注MEMS芯片制造主业，组织了北京FAB3产线洁净间参观。公司收购展诚 科技，因其为高新技术企业等，从事芯片设计服务及EDA软件开发，可协同MEMS EDA领域开发，拓 展战略布局，推动"MEMS＋"模式提升竞争力；转让瑞典Silex控制权是基于国际政经环境，为其寻求稳 定经营环境，避免价值减损，公司保留约45％股份获取投资收益及重大决策参与权。 赛微电子瑞典产线毛利率高于北京产线，因运营久、工艺开发占比高、折旧压力小，但北京产线工艺开 发毛利率不一定低；北京FAB3产能利用率较低，规划推动硅麦克风等量产爬坡、风险试产及工艺开 发，未来随订单增加提升良率和产能利用率；北京FAB3已量产硅麦克风等，试产气体芯片等，推进微 流控等工艺开发到量产阶段。 MEMS行业因万物互联和智能传感需求前景广阔，正替代传统传感器，公司认为纯代工模式能为设计公 司节省投入，与IDM模式长期共存；行业规模预计2024到2030年从154亿美元增至192亿，CAGR3． 7％，中高端市 ...

被马化腾所重视的腾讯AI助手元宝，再度因为骂人事件"翻车"。 2月25日，"元宝骂人"的话题登上微博科技热搜榜首，该事件起源于一位网友在春节假期间发帖称，除夕晚上，第一次下载元宝，想让元宝设计一张拜年 图片，让元宝改了3稿，却被元宝骂了。 从该网友发布的对话内容来看，其为一名律师，向元宝发布指令"根据我的行业特点，制作一张朋友圈拜年图片"，该网友反馈"难看"以及"你这是设计的 什么鬼"之后，元宝生成的拜年海报中出现了包含辱骂性词汇的脏话。 2月24日晚间，腾讯元宝官方账号在该网友发布的内容下方评论称："经核实，该情况是由模型在处理多轮对话时输出的异常结果导致。目前，我们已紧急 校正了相关问题并优化体验。" 2月25日，该网友在社交平台小红书发布视频呼吁外界理性看待元宝，他表示："人工智能在发展过程当中肯定会出现各种各样的问题，也正是这样的问 题，才会推进人工智能的发展，所以出错是在所难免的。" 元宝接连出现的"骂人"事件，正值互联网大厂正处于AI助手争夺用户的关键时刻。 在刚刚过去的春节假期这一重要窗口，腾讯、阿里、字节跳动等大型科技公司纷纷发力旗下AI应用。其中，腾讯早早行动，在春节假期开始之前，便宣 布拿 ...

日前，Xbox主机联合创始人在接受采访时透露，由于微软游戏新任首席执行官的从业经验集中在人工智能领域，而非游戏行业，因此接下来她可能会逐 步拆解 Xbox 品牌，慢慢以人工智能为核心展开业务。 尽管该创始人的看法十分悲观，但新任首席执行官似乎对第一方硬件与游戏颇为重视。 她在发言中表示，将"从主机业务开始，重新坚定对 Xbox 的投入"。 有传闻称，新款 Xbox 主机可能更接近 Windows 游戏电脑，且没有独占游戏来安抚粉丝。 不过，许多玩家对此次战略转向仍持怀疑态度。 根据官方说明，回顾面板主要在玩家通过 Game Bar 截图或解锁成就后触发；对于首次运行某款游戏的玩家，系统偶尔会显示简短的签到信息及同类游戏 推荐，以此确保信息的实用性与适度性。 Xbox 应用为了支持这一功能，将默认在系统托盘中静默运行。 微软表示，开发团队已深度优化 Xbox 应用，最大程度降低了其对内存和系统性能的影响，确保不会拖累游戏运行速度。 汇总此前爆料，这款次世代 Xbox 主机将深度融合 Windows 11 系统，兼容历代 Xbox 游戏库，可自由切换完整 Windows 环境，支持 Epic、Steam 等第三 ...
