Winbond electric factories want to go to Singapore

All countries around the world under the condition of the development of semiconductor industry, our country Taiwan area play an important role in the global semiconductor industry supply chain, naturally become other governments and enterprises are the goal of poaching.According to the exclusive news newspaper, the Singapore government has recently started to an olive branch to the Taiwan semiconductor company, hope that the Taiwan semiconductor companies to invest in Singapore.

According to reliable sources, are sprinting to the development of 3 x and 2 x nano process DRAM, and of the Flash memory is encoded (NOR Flash) winbond electricity supply companies, has been targeted by the government of Singapore, is an active communication with high-level contacts, hope winbond electricity to Singapore a new plant.And, the Singapore government also promised to sovereign funds or fund investment 30% preferential terms, temasek smooth winbond electricity can be set up in Singapore.

It is understood that for winbond electricity is now actively expanding production capacity, and put forward by the Singapore government incentives can actually let winbond electric top move, high-level now intends to consider the new 12 "factory capacity and r&d center established in Singapore.Currently winbond only zhongke electric factory is a production base, the current state of production capacity has reached saturation.

At present, according to customer requirements, CST factory has been building new factories and clean room equipment, production of season 1 has started to cast in 2017, 2017 season 2 new capacity is expected to generate revenue, at the appointed timeMemory chipsThe quantity about further increased to 45000 pieces.

 

But even if zhongke plant capacity expansion, but considering the main products include now winbond NOR Flash and niche DRAM because of market demand, is badly in need of new capacity injection, to overseas factories, improve production capacity is also a worthwhile option solution.

Singapore's semiconductor industry has more than 300 companies in the most vigorous period, respectively, from Europe, North America, Japan, and many other areas.Including 14 silicon wafer factory, 40 IC design company, 20 sealing test, eight special fabs, as well as some manufacturing equipment, is responsible for the materials, light industry enterprises such as mask.

But in recent years, due to the semiconductor industry competition and falling profits, Singapore began to vigorously promote strategic emerging service industry proportion, such as finance and IT, for the semiconductor industry recognition and support.Once again, therefore, recently saw the semiconductor industry booming, also makes the Singapore government hopes to attract foreign forward again ignited investment ideas.
