It is reported CEO of TSMC ,Morris Chang said TSMC will increase capital spending this year due to increased semiconductor demand for tablet PCs and smart phones.TSMC said the demand of 28 nanotechnology far exceeded our expectations . 28 nm is the company's most advanced production technology, but Chang said the timetable to use 20-nanometer process will be in advance.As more and more people start using mobile phones and tablet PCs to the Internet, play games and watch videos,increasing demand for mobile chips. According to the stastics of the U.S. market research firm comScore, smartphone users in the United States has exceeded 100 million last month .The spokesman of TSMC, Sun said that the company's 28-nanometer process chip is in short currently supply in the state.The fourth project of 12-inch wafer plant from TSMC has been put into operation, annual output value is about $ 6 billion. Chang said that the fifth and sixth works will be put into operation in 2014, and the new output value is $ 6,000,000,000, to spend about NT $ 350 billion yuan (about $ 12 billion) and create 4500 jobs.

The smaller Nanoscaleb, more advanced technology, the size of the semiconductor can be the smaller with more powerful performance.Chang said that part of the additional expenditure will be used for the production of the camera's image sensor and other specialized products.
