TSMC - 45nm now ready for production

While Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) is introducing 45nm to practical production, TSMC said it will move forward to the development of next-generation process nodes, which include 32nm and 22nm, with pilot runs of the former expected to begin in 2009. Its key customer, Altera, in the meantime, values its solid relationship with TSMC, and stresses that ongoing development to more cutting-edge technologies is underway and its single-foundry business model will not be changed.

Yuh-Jier Mii, senior director, R&D division, TSMC indicated that the company recently brought its 45nm low-power process node to production. When the 45nm node is in production, TSMC will move on to the introduction of the low-power half-node 40nm process, and later, the generic 45nm node, he detailed. Industry players expect the first 45nm-made IC to hit the market during late 2007.
