A research center has been set up in this far-east country to develop advanced micro-chip production technology. The center, which will start out with about US$14million, will help the country develop its chip industry without always depending on imported technology.
The center will make use of its research skills and facilities to develop new technology for domestic chip plants. The advent of the center will possibly free the country from the situation that it is always buying almost-outdated technologies from other countries, said the country’s flagship chipmaker. Currently, chip plants in this country are in a passive situation because many foreign governments don’t allow them to import the most advanced technologies, fearing they will be used for military purposes. Moreover, the high licensing fees they have to pay to technology provider are also an important reason for their decision of self-reliance.
As mainstream chip production technology shifts from one generation to the next every three to five years, plants with new technology can make more powerful chips at lower costs, while plants with out-dated equipment, which often cost billions of dollars to build, will be marginalized by the maker.
More than 10 chip plants are being built, each costing millions of U.S. dollars. The majority of that money goes to overseas equipment vendors and technology owners- mainly from Japan and Singapore.
Should the new center play a major role in improving the situation in industry, the country admits the US$14million in vestment is still rather small. This country is developing comprehensive technologies. Most of the investment will be spent on setting alliances with technology and intellectual property owners.
為了開發(fā)先進的微芯片生產(chǎn)技術(shù)，這個遠東國家建立了一個研究中心，該中心啟動資金為一千四百萬美元，可以幫助該國開發(fā)自己的芯片工業(yè)，不必總是依賴于進口技術(shù)。
該中心將會應(yīng)用自己的研究技術(shù)和設(shè)施，為本國芯片廠家開發(fā)新技術(shù)。這個國家名列首位的芯片制造公司說，芯片中心的成立可能使這個國家擺脫從他國購買即將淘汰的技術(shù)的困境。由于許多外國政府擔心先進技術(shù)會被用于軍事目的，不允許這個國家的芯片生產(chǎn)廠家進口前沿技術(shù)，所以這些生產(chǎn)廠家處于一種被動局面。另外，由于這些芯片生產(chǎn)廠家必須向技術(shù)提供者支付高額的許可費，這也構(gòu)成了他們決定要自力更生的一個重要原因。
由于主流芯片生產(chǎn)技術(shù)每隔3～5年都要進行更新?lián)Q代，所以掌握了新技術(shù)的廠家就可以以較低的成本制造出較好的芯片，而那些耗費數(shù)10億美元建立起的廠家，如果設(shè)備落后，也將會被生產(chǎn)商所淘汰。
十幾個芯片廠正在建立之中，每個廠的造價都在幾百萬美元，其中大部分資金都流向了海外設(shè)備商和技術(shù)所有者——一主要是日本和新加坡。
如果新建的芯片中心能在改變該國芯片行業(yè)的被動形勢中起到重要作用，該國承認，一千四百萬美元的投資仍是微不足道的。該國正在開發(fā)綜合技術(shù)，大部分投資將用于與技術(shù)和知識產(chǎn)權(quán)所有者建立聯(lián)盟。
