28nm chip second wave of business opportunities to drive

28nm chip second wave of business opportunities to drive The second wave of 28nm business opportunities arrived. With the maturing of 28nm process technology and the continuous production capacity of UMC and GLOBALFOUNDRIES, the trend of 28nm wafer design has begun to spread by mobile processors and field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). New application areas such as STBs and SmartTV chips have led to the emergence of a second wave of 28nm drop demand.

Huang Keqin, head of UMC’s marketing department, said that currently, the overall 28-nanometer capacity is still in short supply, and in addition to the considerable amount of new-model IC processors entering the first-tier IC design industry, Chinese mainland chip makers have followed up the development of 28-nanometer processors. Afterwards, the demand for this advanced manufacturing process was greatly boosted. Therefore, TSMC, UMC, and GF were all able to increase production capacity to increase their 28-nm orders.

Huang Keqin emphasized that UMC has grown rapidly in the wafer foundry market in mainland China. Its 28nm process has been favored by several local chip makers due to its excellent price/performance ratio and is closely cooperating. Focusing on the lack of technical energy for complete IC, circuit layout and driver design in China's mainland IC design industry, UMC has also collaborated with Collaboration Model's joint R&D strategy to provide various IP, EDA tool support, and Variety of process options such as high performance (HP) or low power (LP).

UMC also announced recently that it will cooperate with SuVolta to integrate SuVolta's DDC (Deeply Depleted Channel) transistor technology in its 28-nanometer high-kitch metal gate (HKMG) process solution to reduce leakage current and increase the wafer's low voltage. State performance to draw more customers.

It is worth noting that, following the mobile devices, smart TVs or set-top box manufacturers are increasingly demanding built-in processors to improve computing, networking performance, and reduce costs, thus driving related wafer vendors to accelerate the introduction of 28nm processes. Among them, TV chip leader Morningstar and MediaTek will acquire more design resources and will be expected to release 28nm TV chips in the first half of this year. Other players can also follow suit and pay attention to another wave of 28nm crystals. Round shipment kinetic energy.

In addition, TV brands in Japan, South Korea, and China have planned to launch a number of ultra-high definition (UHD) televisions, affecting peripheral set-top box devices that support 4K×2K resolution, H.265 video encoding and decoding standards, and Gbit/s High-speed transmission interface and other new specifications, Broadcom is actively investing in the development of a new generation of 28-nanometer STB system-on-chip (SoC) to integrate the above-mentioned functions at one time.

Huang Keqin disclosed that UMC has received the demand of many TV or set-top box manufacturers to import 28-nanometer solutions, which indicates that the second wave of 28nm business opportunities is beginning to show. In addition to the mobile device application processor, the 28nm TV and the aircraft will be used in the future. Box wafer foundry will also pay a lot of revenue for the company. To continue to attract new customers, UMC is expanding the HDMI and high-speed image encoding and decoding IP lineups required for the deployment of related products, and promoting its 28nm process service to be more complete and meticulous.

The Led Display Screen used in special environment needs to be customized according to environmental factors, including severe cold, high temperature, damp heat, vibration, impact, exposure, rain, sand dust, lightning and other severe weather.    For example, in the case of severe cold up to - 50c, the visual display will change the conventional configuration and materials according to the site environment, and replace them with high cold resistant materials.
