Mosel Vitelic/Siemens joint DRAM fab underway

Taiwan

Mosel Vitelic`s new $1.5 billion, eight-inch semiconductor fab, using manufacturing technology from Siemens, is expected to start production of 64-M dynamic random access memory (DRAM) devices in mid-1997. A joint venture, the fab, which is located in Hsinchu`s Science-Based Industrial Park, will produce the devices using 0.35 &#181m geometries. Initially designed to produce 20,000 wafers per month, the fab`s capacity will be expanded to 40,000 wafers per month, including production of 256-M DRAMs with 0.25 &#181m geometries. — SES
