Abstract :
MtM is an old field, but it has a new life now. Green requirement, cloud computing, and natural world interfaces demand for much more sophisticated MtM solutions. This trend presents both challenges and opportunities for IDM´s, fabless companies, and foundries. To meet these new expectations for MtM, we need high tech solutions which include advanced process modules, comprehensive design kits, precise manufacturing control, and timely customization service. To compete effectively in the future MtM field, large scale manufacturing, smaller device foot print, and feature rich integration become more important. Foundries capable of delivering competitive solutions will offer a level playing field to both IDM´s and fabless companies. TSMC is committed to provide competitive MtM solutions to IDM´s and fabless companies, for diversified applications, and for the long term.
