In recent years, the semiconductor manufacturing business is increasingly becoming a heavy burden of major companies, excluding giant Intel, Samsung, for example, AMD will have to split the manufacturing business, Hitachi also can not escape the" magic curse ", constantly manufacturing outsourcing, and efforts to control manufacturing costs, improve production efficiency.Hitachi equipment R & D center was established in 1975 for the development of IT products, semiconductor integrated circuit. In 2004, as part of the reform of the Hitachi Group restructuring, the center and nuanced equipment sector, the Hitachi Group and external customers design, development, manufacture and marketing of semiconductor integrated circuits involving IT equipment and measurement, medical, industrial equipment and other fields.
