It also offers specialty manufacturing processes, advanced packaging, mask services, and other technologies used to produce logic, mixed-signal, radio-frequency, embedded-memory, and other types of semiconductor products.
Founded in 1987 by Morris Chang, TSMC helped establish the pure-play foundry business model. The company serves customers globally and operates major manufacturing and research facilities in Taiwan, while also developing an international manufacturing presence that includes facilities in the United States and Japan. Dr. C.C. Wei serves as TSMC’s chairman and chief executive officer.
