  • Thursday 6:03 PM Chip contract manufacturer UMC, which has long played second fiddle to larger Taiwanese rival TSMC (TSM), has broken ground on an $8B fab expansion plan that will manufacture chips at cutting-edge process nodes. TSMC has a head start on UMC and other rivals in producing chips using a 28nm process, and is having trouble meeting demand. Chip equipment makers are counting on strong orders from contract manufacturers to offset weak demand elsewhere.

  • Wednesday 7:49 PM As part of a larger restructuring effort, Japan's Renesas Electronics (RNECY.PK) enters into a chip production tie-up with Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM), the world's largest contract chip maker. TSM will produce chips for use in automobiles and home appliances for Renesas as it looks for alternatives to lower costs.

While 4G devices make up only a small percentage of global phone sales, they account for a much larger chunk of high-end sales. And shipments are expected to surge in 2H thanks to the Samsung Galaxy S III and next-gen iPhone. (previous)
