Advancement of nuclear physics and high power heavy ion accelerator is always a driving force for persistent development of highly charged ECR ion source. Increasing demands for more intense and higher charge state heavy ion beams have dramatically promoted development of ECR ion source technology and physics. This talk provides an overview of intense highly charged superconducting ECR ion sources built by the world-wide laboratories in the last years. The key technologies, challenges and main issues related to construction and operation of high performance superconducting ECR ion source are reviewed. The latest results of intense highly charged ion beam production from the superconducting ECR ion sources are presented. Future development and the next generation highly charged ECR ion source are discussed.
