Cross-strait cargo charter flights opened Shanghai TSMC chip device


At 1 o'clock on the July 20, a Boeing 747-400 cargo flights at Shanghai Pudong International Airport touched down slowly. After a while the peak, a large container pieces physique passed the barriers, as has been the long-awaited cargo fleet disappeared into the night.

These devices from the world's largest chip foundry Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, more than 3 hours ago from Taiwan Taoyuan CKS International Airport "off." With the device successfully Di Hu, TSMC became the first after the opening of cross-strait cargo charter customers.

Implementation of the first tasks of cross-strait cargo flights, said China Airlines, Taiwan, since the 7th of this month Taiwan's "Ministry" announced details of arrangements for cross-strait charter flights, the company accepted the commission TSMC, then led 19 direct cargo charter flights maiden flight.

The detailed arrangements under the charter airline as long as 10 days before the application can be cross-strait cargo charter flights flight. Taiwanese cargo charter flights to the mainland is only applicable to the factory transportation machinery, equipment and spare parts.

TSMC spokesman Tzeng 17, said in an interview, because of cost considerations, the company made the application. Direct reduction of 3 hours can be reduced about 1 / 4 of the transportation costs. In addition, when replacement can avoid the intermediate value of several hundred million dollars of damage to precision production parts.

It is understood that TSMC to the mainland delivery is 8-inch chip production equipment. The equipment belonged in Taiwan foundry TSMC Fab 7. Arrival in Shanghai Songjiang factory installed, the TSMC chip plant in China expected to grow from the current capacity 20,000 / month up to 30,000 / month.

TSMC said the transfer of this equipment was approved by the Taiwan authorities. Last year in April the company's 12-inch plant in Hsinchu mass production stage, the Taiwan authorities have been allowed to mature 8-inch chip production equipment to Shanghai. According to TSMC's mainland investment plan, the remaining 8-inch device will be delivered before the end of the mainland.

TSMC is the world's largest chip foundry, but the investment in mainland China by the Taiwan authorities have repeatedly obstructed. Technology transfer to Taiwan for fear of damage to the semiconductor industry, the Taiwan authorities on the TSMC investment in the mainland, equipment, technology and so made a clear limit.

The move led directly to the company behind the market situation in China: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company in the mainland only one 8-inch plant, and is still at a loss stage. Peer SMIC, Hua Hong NEC and so on in the set up factories in the scale of domestic IC design companies and the mainland relations and so on at the forefront.

China's semiconductor market is growing rapidly. Semiconductor professional advisory body to the latest iSuppli report, thanks to mobile phone, PC and other consumer electronic products increased rapidly in 2005, the total demand for semiconductors in China reached 37 billion U.S. dollars, about 12.8% increase over 2004 is expected in 2006 semiconductor demand will grow 18%.

Tzeng said, more and more domestic IC design companies continent began to TSMC orders, many foreign customers are also required to carry out TSMC foundry in China.

Industry sources, since late last year, TSMC Songjiang plant at full capacity the state has been presented. Investment in new equipment can ease the situation. "It is difficult to fundamentally change the passive situation of TSMC." The person said that the Taiwan authorities have no intention to open 0.18-micron process and investment in the mainland landing limit of 40% of net open, TSMC developed very limited.
