SMIC to build orders for 65nm chips from China-based IC design house


Tuesday, November 30, 2010

Foundry chipmaker Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) has said it recently grabbed orders for 65nm chips from China-based consumer IC design house Fuzhou Rockchip Electronics. The new orders are expected to help boost further its sales generated from the process.

Fuzhou's design of a high-end digital-analog mixed SoC chip has successfully entered into commercial production at SMIC using the foundry's 65nm LP process. Dubbed RK Cayman, the series is targeted for use in digital media players, e-book readers, and other digital consumer products.

SMIC revealed that 65nm accounted for 7.1% of its total wafer revenues in the third quarter pf 2010, up from 3.7% in the second quarter. Demand for the node has been rising at a fast pace, the company added.

In addition, SMIC said sales generated from its 45nm node are expected to become solid starting from the second half of 2011.
