Taiwan Semiconductor Company Limited (TSC or Taiwan Semi; Chinese: 台灣半導體股份有限公司; pinyin: Táiwān Bàn Dǎo Tǐ Gǔ-fèn Yǒu-xiàn Gōng Sī) is a Taiwanese semiconductor and electronic components manufacturer for various industries including automotive, communications, power electronics, and consumer goods. Taiwan Semiconductor is headquartered in the Xindian District of New Taipei City, Taiwan. Additionally, the company maintains service centers in China, the United States, Germany, and Japan. The company's subsidiary, TSC Auto ID Technology Co., Ltd., specializes in the manufacturing of barcode printers and wireless RFID barcode printers.
Taiwan Semiconductor operates two wafer fabrication facilities and two packaging facilities, located in Yilan and Lije (Wujie Township), Taiwan, as well as Tianjin and Shandong, China. The Lije facility primarily focuses on the production of TVS components and 6-inch wafers.[2] Meanwhile, while the Tianjin facility specializes in 4-inch wafers and surface-mount adhesive products. The Shandong plant is dedicated to the production of bridge rectifiers and holds certifications such as IATF 16949 for automotive industry quality, ISO 9001, and ISO 14001 for environmental compliance.[3]
Taiwan Semiconductor transitioned from an early focus on the manufacturer of rectifiers and label printers to specializing in electronic components used across diverse industries including automotive,[4] industrial instruments, 5G – 6G communications, power electronics, LED lighting and consumer goods. The company offers a range of products, including trench Schottky rectifiers, MOSFETs, TVS devices, transistors, analog ICs, and ESD protection devices.[2] Taiwan Semiconductor has also collaborated with United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC)[5] on MOSFET technologies, and with Bosch on the development of automotive protection devices,[2] with a specific focus on bolstering capabilities in the automotive sector.[6]
