Russian Company Hamster to Develop and Produce Electronics Products with Chinese Chip, Sparking Interest from Potential Buyers and Opportunities for Electronic Component Distributors

According to foreign reports, the Russian company Hamster is planning to develop and manufacture single-board computers, processor modules, and motherboards based on a chip from a Chinese company, referred to as "R company". Previously, the company had developed products based on domestically produced Baikal processors.

It has been reported that the four new products set to be released by Hamster will all be based on a four-core ARM processor from the Chinese R company and are scheduled to be released in May of this year. The development team has stated that they are targeting a sales market of 10,000 units per year. Additionally, a Mini-ITX motherboard based on the R company processor will be released in July, and the company representative expects to target a sales market of over 50,000 units per year.

The assembly and soldering of the new products will take place at Hamster's self-owned production facility in Russia. It has been rumored that Rosatom and the Russian railway company have shown interest in Hamster's products. Furthermore, users have shown significant interest in the upcoming products based on the Chinese chip.

The news of Hamster's upcoming products based on a chip from a Chinese company could represent an opportunity for distributors to expand their offerings and cater to a broader range of customers. This could involve exploring potential partnerships with Hamster, offering competitive pricing, ensuring reliable supply chains, and providing high-quality components.

It is worth noting that the specific markets targeted by Hamster's new products differ. The company is focusing on a sales market of 10,000 units per year for their single-board computers and processor modules, while their Mini-ITX motherboard is expected to target a sales market of over 50,000 units per year. As such, distributors should tailor their offerings to meet the specific needs and requirements of different markets and customers.

In conclusion, the news of Hamster's upcoming products based on a Chinese chip represents a significant development in the electronic components market that distributors should take note of.
