By
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), the world’s largest contract chip maker, is gearing up to make microprocessors for an undisclosed customer that appears to be Advanced Micro Devices (AMD).
TSMC will manufacture processors for the unnamed customer in 2008, Rick Tsai, TSMC’s chief executive officer, told analysts during a meeting that was transmitted live over the Internet. “We expect to see something start to happen during the second half of next year,” he said, adding the deal is expected to make a “meaningful contribution” to TSMC’s revenue.
