Manufacturing Competences, Supply Chain Management and Logistic Support

Toshiba handles its own process development, and has its own, fully controlled wafer fabs, packaging and test facilities.

Toshiba continues to invest in technology and fab capacity to ensure reliable support of its customers’ requirements. ASIC and System LSI devices are manufactured in the company’s Iwate plant (mature technologies down to 0.35um CMOS) and Oita plant (0.25um … 40nm CMOS).

Toshiba has also developed close working links with a number of major 3rd party technology and assembly and test suppliers. This provides a high degree of flexibility (e.g. process option, schedule, urgent mass production introduction, recovery) to accommodate customer needs.

Toshiba is able to commercialize leading-edge CMOS processes for advanced ICs one to two years ahead of the industry, to the direct benefit of our 300mm manufacturing customers.  By leading the industry in producing high-performance system-level ICs in 90nm since 2003, plus early production of 65nm in 2006—with co-development of 40 and 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.
