At the beginning of new module research, IC design engineers and R&D engineers would closely cooperate with customers.

Once the new module technologies are developed, we could accomplish the goal of massive production and have customers’ new product launch in a short time. At TSMC, you will have the opportunity to work with the most advanced module technologies, provide solutions to partners in the global IC design ecosystem, and ensure competitiveness in power, performance, and area.
