Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) | Fab
TSMC’s original mainland China manufacturing site — Fab 10, a greenfield 200mm fab in the Songjiang Industrial Zone that began trial production on 1 August 2004 (build cost ~$1.3B per the Wikipedia fab-list; ~74,000 wafers/month planning figure), serving legacy-node analog/sensor/mixed-signal demand and still listed on TSMC’s official fab-capacity disclosure in 2025 as one of two overseas 8-inch fabs. Node/wafer specifics are now confirmed against the Wikipedia dump cross-check; current capacity figures are not verified.
Chinese name: 台积电（上海）有限公司 (Táijīdiàn (Shànghǎi) Yǒuxiàn Gōngsī)
What does this facility make?
0.25µm–0.11µm-class 200mm foundry wafers — analog, sensor and mixed-signal legacy work, multiple generations behind TSMC’s frontier nodes.
Why does it matter?
Alongside Nanjing, establishes that TSMC’s mainland footprint is deliberately confined to mature/legacy process technology. Not affected by TSMC’s Aug 2025 6-inch-exit/8-inch-consolidation plan (which targets Taiwan fabs Fab 5/2, with no verified closure of Fab 10 as of late 2026); it operates under the same annual US tool-export license granted to Nanjing in January 2026.
