|
|
|
Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC), China's largest chip foundry, said on Friday that full-year revenue is on track to hit an all-time high of more than US$9 billion, as tight foundry capacity and supply-chain localisation keep its fabs running at full tilt.
“The iterative effects across the supply chain are continuing, which leads to a stronger-than-usual off-season. Our production remains in a state of supply falling short of demand,” co-CEO Zhao Haijun said on an......
