Chinese HCU plant expanding
Renesas has completed a new building to increase microcontroller production capacity at the back-end process plant of Renesas Semiconductor in Beijing, China.
The company plans to expand production of MCUs, its core business. In particular, the company aims to supply products to the Chinese MCU market.
When operating next year, the production area will be expanded by about 60%, from the current 18,000 to 29,000 m2.
Production, consisting of MCUs, mixed-signal devices, etc, is expected to increase substantially, growing from the current output (January 2010) of about 65 million units per month to some 100 million units per month.
Using the newly expanded RSB, which will be one of the world’s largest MCU back-end facilities, as a base, Renesas Technology will continue to strengthen its MCU business and its China business in general.
