SAN FRANCISCO — Globalfoundries has asked European regulators to investigate rival chip foundry TSMC, accusing its larger competitor of unfair competition, according to a report by the Reuters news service.
Globalfoundries (Milpitas, Calif.) has claimed to the EU's legislative and regulatory arm, the European Commission, that TSMC unfairly uses loyalty rebates, exclusivity clauses and bundled rebates as well as penalties to discourage customers from switching to rivals, according to the report, which cites an anonymous semiconductor industry source.
