SAN JOSE, Calif. — Chinese foundry vendor Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp. (SMIC) confirmed reports that it is developing 90-nm process technology. In 2005, SMIC (Shanghai) also plans to make 90-nm chip for its customers, including Texas Instruments Inc., according to a report from the Associated Press on Friday (Oct. 8). SMIC confirmed it is developing 90-nm technology, but refused to comment on making chips for TI, the report said. SMIC and TI already have a foundry alliance at the 130-nm node. Last month, SMIC said it has an as-yet undisclosed partner that is helping the company develop a 90-nm manufacturing process for logic circuits (see Sept. 8 story).
