Foundry/COT

Advance CMOS Fabs are Cornerstone of Toshiba ASIC, Foundry and COT Business

Toshiba aggressively brings leading-edge CMOS processes for advanced ICs in 300mm manufacturing for its customers. By leading the industry in producing high-performance system-level ICs in 90nm since 2003, plus production of 65nm-with libraries now available for 40nm and 32/28nm process technologies underway-Toshiba is able to stay ahead of the yield curve. We're continually solving DFM complexities to enhance performance, streamline time-to-revenue and reduce IC cost.

To stay ahead of the industry roadmaps and better serve cost-sensitive applications, Toshiba:

  • Continues to invest and plans a multi-billion dollar investment in Capex and R&D over the next several years.

  • Has achieved many firsts and has been granted 1603 utility patents in 2008 (U.S. Patent Office - 2008).

  • Maintains its leadership position and ranks 3rd in worldwide semiconductor revenue (Gartner, 2009 Ranking, January, 2010), only after Intel and Samsung, following a recent acquisition of the Sony semiconductor business.


Your design benefits many ways, because we reliably deliver:

  • Ample capacity with multiple 300mm state-of-the-art facilities in Oita and Nagasaki. The Nagasaki Fab was acquired in early 2008 from Sony.
  • Reduced tooling cost through a select IP offering, allowing turnkey test and logistics
  • Defect density at least one year ahead of industry; ideal for processor or FPGA
  • Unparalleled Resolution Enhancement Technique (RET) for greater first time yield
  • Ability to integrate low-power embedded DRAM
  • Access to key IP, such as MIPS or ARM, SERDES-based IPs and a lot more
  • World-class yield management and DFM methodology
  • Fully characterized spice models and extraction data across all corners: drc/lrc/erc
  • Complete product testing and logistics management
  • Flexible business model with seamless interface of 3rd party assembly, substrate or test
