How to insert a hyperlink with dynamic label into datatable

I followed the example on this link https://datatables.net/reference/option/columns.render and was able to insert the hyperlink into the table. However, I could not make the label of the hyperlink dynamic. Here is my code:

                         render: function (data, type, row) {
                            //console.log("data = " + data);
                            var crab = data.split(" ");
                        //console.log("minh = " + crab);
                        var i = 0;
                        var formatedData = "";
                        var chipName = data.substring(data.length-6, data.length-1);
                        return '<a href="'+data+'">chipName</a>';
                     }

As you can see, I defined chipName as a variable and the its value is from the data. However, with this code, the label for the hyperlink is always "chipName" instead of "ABB109", "ABB110" as expected.

Please help
