In the core monthly production capacity exceeded 18 thousand enhance the level of integrated circuit

A total investment of USD 1 billion 100 million, SMIC chip production line renovation project is progressing well, purification plant, part of the power facilities and environmental safety facilities renovation completed, to meet the 8 inch wafer manufacturing, process technology from 0.35 microns to 0.13 micron integrated circuit production requirements. At present, the monthly production has reached 18 thousand. After the construction of the project, will greatly enhance the scale and technical level of Tianjin integrated circuit products.

April 2000, SMIC integrated circuit manufacturing Co., Ltd. was established in the British Cayman Islands, mainly engaged in wafer foundry, providing global customers with 0.35 - 0.13 micron one-stop integrated circuit manufacturing services.

In January 16, 2004, SMIC set foot in Tianjin, through the way of asset merger and acquisition of Motorola (Chinese) Electronics Co., Ltd. Tianjin Xiqing chip factory, established in Semiconductor Manufacturing International (Tianjin) Co., ltd.. The new project investment of $710 million, the main content is the world's most advanced photomask technology, new stepper lithography, ion injection machines and other production equipment, and adaptive transformation of the existing production workshop and supporting facilities construction, meet the 8 inch, 0.13 micron chip production line in Tianjin, enhance the core technology and the expansion of production capacity. After the transformation, by the end of last year, the total production capacity has reached 18 thousand / month. According to reports, after the completion of the project in 2007, monthly production of up to 30 thousand, the annual sales income of 3 billion 347 million yuan, profits and taxes of $628 million, of which $448 million profit.
