Taiwan's three largest chipmaker TSMC will reach Shanghai collective power crystal promos

The fastest this month at the end of the west, the lifting of the ban policy that will check out the Taiwan repan. The first chip with TSMC, led by Li Jing, Timothy generation business will be one step ahead, the collective land in shanghai.

Yesterday, Taiwan (Hongkong) Shanghai Taiwanese Association President Zhang Fumei told reporters in Beijing to disclose the news. Li Jing, Mao De, TSMC hope to open 0.18 micron landing project, and their 'landing' program has been approved, this time to be able to release." Zhang Fumei said. Taiwan chip maker TSMC was allowed to set up factories in mainland China in 2003, located in Shanghai. The crystal and the other two promos Taiwan has on chip predators force late last year and early this year to invest in mainland China, eight inch fab for their landing also in Shanghai.

Earlier this month, the Taiwan Ministry of economy said will announce the new management approach of Taiwanese investment in mainland. Among them, 0.18 micron semiconductor technology is expected to open for the first time on the mainland. The news caused great concern in the industry, more eager to look forward to the business sector in Taiwan. As one of the mainstream technologies in the industry, the 0.18 micron technology has been adopted by most domestic and international semiconductor companies, but the Taiwan authorities have banned the use of the technology by Taiwan enterprises in mainland china.

Semiconductor industry is a pillar industry in Taiwan, due to concerns about technology outflow, after the provisions of the Taiwan technology landing standards for 0.25 microns. Even if this is a backward technology, Taiwan enterprises to get the pass has to cross the threshold, so far only TSMC through. However, informed sources told reporters, because of concerns about policy risks and other reasons, the company's move in China is extremely slow, the factory in Shanghai has not been put into operation.

"Magic spell" so that Taiwan businessmen have a headache, in the face of the vast mainland market but can not display their fists. Taiwan's chip industry is second to none in the world, but in the close proximity of the mainland market is lagging behind competitors. Prior to this, Li Jing, chairman of semiconductor has said publicly that, unless the lifting of the Taiwan authorities 0.18 micron technology, or even through the approval of the force will not go to the mainland to invest in Huang Chongren, because there is no profit space.

However, they are still waiting for the final decision of the Taiwan authorities. TSMC said that once the lifting of the ban will be immediately transported to the factory in Shanghai, Songjiang 0.18 micron process equipment. "According to the current situation, Taiwanese investment in the mainland can only 'loose' can not 'tighter', it is impossible to regress." At the same time, Zhang Fumei said the Taiwan investment in the mainland's 40% limit may be relaxed, "this is Taiwan, the consensus of the industry, the industry is more yanyinqipan".
