Currently, TSMC operates two six-inch wafer fabs (Fab 1 and 2) and three eight-inch wafer fabs (Fab 3, 4, and 5), all located in Hsin-Chu, Taiwan. In mid-1998, TSMC announced that production wafers were being delivered from its first U.S foundry WaferTech, a joint venture with Altera, Analog Devices and Integrated Silicon Solution Inc. The company has broken ground in the new Tainan Park which will house Fabs 6 and 7. >>
