S3 Graphics and Fujitsu Ltd have announced that Fujitsu will be producing the new range of S3 Graphics' graphics processors, using Fujitsu's 90nm process technology to enable the realization of graphics processors.
Fujitsu is expected to manufacture the "Chrome" graphics processor family, said to be S3 Graphics' newest and most advanced 3D graphics processors using its 90nm process technology, which yields silicon that runs both 25% faster and with power savings of at least 25% compared to chips made with conventional 90nm processes. In benchmark tests, the new silicon produced by Fujitsu showed up to 75% performance improvement over earlier S3 Graphics generations, enabling the new range of graphics processors to offer richer high-definition video features and more vibrant 3D graphics.
The launch of a 300mm wafer facility at Fujitsu's Mie plant in Mie prefecture, Japan, in April 2005 has expanded and enhanced its capability to product CMOS semiconductor products for its customers. Fujitsu will manufacture the S3 Graphics chips at its Mie facility using its 90nm process technology. In addition, S3 Graphics is planning to continue its foundry relationship with Fujitsu for products beyond the 90nm generation.
