VIS Offers foundry services that are primarily based on
TSMC licensed processed technologies as well as a variety
of other licensed process technologies.
Wafer Foundry Services
Vanguard offers a full line-up of technologies including generic
logic, high voltage, mixed signal, analog, RF CMOS, embedded
OTP, mask ROM, ultra low power CMOS, low Rds-on LDMOS, Biplor-CMOS-DMOS
(BCD) and CMOS image sensor. Vanguard's production-proven
processes provide customers with industry-leading performance,
yield and reliability. Based on the comprehensive suite of
TSMC's transferred technologies with flexibility and discipline
to provide a wide array of value-added, Specialty
processes, Vanguard provides modular and versatile process
which mixes many different types of building blocks on one
chip to enhance the cost/performance and extend the range
of application. Vanguard's customers have qualified four generations
of processing technologies ranging from 0.18um to 0.5um with
excellent quality. Vanguard has a capacity of more than 60,000
eight-inch wafer starts per month today and Vanguard's generic
and highly specialized processes comply with the requirements
for the automotive, industrial, communication and PC industries.

please do contact Vanguard or your VIS account manager.
MPW Services
VIS started multiple project wafer (MPW) since July of 2003.
At a fixed, predictable price, this groundbreaking program
spreads the cost of one mask set and wafer processing among
as many as 16 customers or Design Service Alliance Partners.
VIS developed MPW in response to current SoC design methodology,
which often requires independent development, prototyping,
and validation of a variety of cores before successful integration
into a single device.
MPW prototypes virtually all VIS technologies and offers
the industry's only capability to run both generic logic and
mixed-signal prototypes on the same wafer. MPW provides a
range of options and performance available in the semiconductor
industry.
Please contact your VIS account manager for more detail.
Mask Services
For your convenience and to expedite the cycle time from tape-out
to wafer-start, VIS provides the tape out service and subcontract
mask tooling facility. The mask making service of VIS assures
fast and timely mask delivery and eliminates mask damage or
contamination during transportation.
