Fujitsu Microelectronics and TSMC to Collaborate on 28nm Process Technology
This collaborative effort combines Fujitsu Microelectronics’ expertise and strength in advanced high-speed process and low-power design technologies with TSMC’s expertise and strength in power-efficient high- performance logic/SoC process and leading-edge technology platform that is part of the Open Innovation Platform™ from TSMC. Extending the collaboration to 28nm will provide the opportunity for both companies to capitalize on a competitive and high-performance 28nm technology based on TSMC’s 28nm technology portfolio that includes high-performance and low-power applications.
The two companies are also discussing possibilities for collaborating on advanced packaging that could include joint developments that combine Fujitsu Microelectronics’ strengths in high-performance lead-free and ultra-high-pin count packaging technologies, with TSMC’s strength in chip-package integration and advanced Cu/ELK interconnect.
“We are rapidly progressing in our previously-announced collaboration with TSMC on 40nm process technology, with several product designs in progress at present,” said Haruyoshi Yagi, Corporate Senior Vice President of Fujitsu Microelectronics Limited. “With this further agreement with TSMC on 28nm high-performance process technology development and production, we combine both companies’ strengths to create greater value for our customers, and will further drive the growth of businesses for TSMC and Fujitsu’s ASIC and ASSP (*1) core products.”
“Fujitsu Microelectronics selected TSMC as a partner based in part on TSMC’s unsurpassed record of developing and ramping advanced technologies. The agreement today is also a vote of confidence in TSMC’s technology platforms that include design related considerations such as design kits, design flows, TSMC and 3rd party IP; robust device related documentation, processes technology excellence and backend assembly and test capabilities,” said Jason Chen, Vice President, Worldwide Sales and Marketing, TSMC.
