will encourage manufacturers to adopt similar features to compete with each other to be the rapid expansion of mobile phone MEMS.”
Taiwan’s Topology Research said, TSMC has already started ADI MEMS chip OEM, and the part of the business will account for 10% of all revenues this year, the next 2-3 years, this proportion will increase to 20%.
TSMC’s rival, United Microelectronics (UMC) is also reportedly began to prepare end of this year or next year, a similar chip supply, although the company declined to comment on the matter.
ISuppli’s Dixon said, MEMS suppliers of traditional main source of revenue for the automotive industry, has now reached the capacity limit, many suppliers choose to upgrade manufacturing technology, wishful and Freescale, while some companies began to produce Outsourcing.
