TSMC announces plans to build specialty technology fabs in Japan and Taiwan's Kaohsiung Construction of Japan fab will start in 2022, production expected to begin by end of 2024 By George Liao, Taiwan News, Staff Writer 2021/11/10 17:09 https://tnimage.s3.hicloud.net.tw/ph...b8c1677dbd.jpg (Taiwan News) — Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) and Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corp. (SSS) on Tuesday (Nov. 9) jointly announced that TSMC will set up a subsidiary — Japan Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing, Inc. (JASM) — in Kumamoto to provide foundry services for 22/28-nanometer processes to address strong global demand for specialty technologies. Construction of the fab will start in 2022, and production is expected to begin by the end of 2024, TSMC said. About 1,500 high-tech jobs will be created with the establishment of the facility, which will have a monthly production capacity of 45,000 12-inch wafers, the Taiwanese company added. With strong support from the Japanese government, the initial capital expenditure is estimated to be approximately US$7 billion, TSMC said. According to the company, SSS plans to invest approximately US$0.5 billion, which represents a less than 20% equity stake in the fab. “We are pleased to have the support of a leading player and our long-time customer, Sony, to supply the market with an all-new fab in Japan, and also are excited at the opportunity to bring more Japanese talent into TSMC’s global family,” said CEO C.C. Wei. JASM adds to TSMC’s contribution to Japan’s semiconductor ecosystem since the establishment of its TSMC Japan subsidiary in 1997. In 2019, the Taiwanese semiconductor giant set up the Japan Design Center to serve its global customers. Domestically, TSMC’s board on Tuesday approved renting a plot of land in Kaohsiung to build a fab, Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Chi-mai (陳其邁) said. TSMC has decided to establish a fab for 7nm and 28nm processes in the southern city in 2022, with mass production expected to begin in 2024, according to CNA.

How TSMC may change Kaohsiung, Taiwan’s ‘Rust Belt City’? https://cdn-cw-english.cwg.tw/articl...978e6566f9.jpg Source:Chien-Tong Wang By Elaine Huang, Hannah Chang From CommonWealth Magazine (vol. 731) 2021-09-09 Excerpt The Kaohsiung oil refinery owned by state-run CPC Corp. Taiwan has had a notorious history, even after being shut down in 2015. It was long the target of environmental protests and has left behind Taiwan’s largest-scale soil contamination site. But it could soon be reborn as a science park with six 12-inch semiconductor wafer foundries by 2026. That is the plan put forth by Kaohsiung’s Economic Development Bureau, according to briefing materials for a high-level Executive Yuan meeting on Aug. 25 obtained exclusively by CommonWealth Magazine. If the plan becomes a reality, the site, the nearby Kaohsiung Nanzih Technology Industrial Park and high-speed rail station in Zuoying, combined with the Ciaotou and Luzhu science parks to the north, will form a 20-kilometer high-tech corridor in northern Kaohsiung. It would be Taiwan’s newest semiconductor cluster and potentially generate more NT$1 trillion in output a year. https://cdn-cw-english.cwg.tw/ckedit...d7a7334a8a.jpg (Source: CommpnWealth Magazine) If the refinery site can be successfully transformed into a science park and accommodate TSMC, it will become a model for “brownfield development,” a term referring to rehabilitating contaminated industrial or commercial property, and could set a standard for Taiwan’s future.
