UMC Launches 22nm Display Driver Tech for Smartphones
United Microelectronics Corporation (NYSE:UMC, TWSE: 2303))))) ("UMC"), a leading global semiconductor foundry, today announced the availability of its 22nm embedded high voltage (eHV) technology platform, the most advanced display driver IC foundry solution in the market to power premium displays for smartphones and other mobile devices. With unmatched power efficiency and reduced die size, the new platform, 22eHV, enables mobile device manufacturers to enhance battery life of their products while offering superior visual experiences.
全球領先的半導體代工公司愛文思控股(UMC)今日宣佈，推出了市面上最先進的22納米嵌入式高壓技術(eHV)平台，以驅動智能手機和其他移動設備的優質顯示器件。新平台22eHV在功率效率和芯片面積等方面都無可匹敵，能夠大幅提高手機使用時間，同時提供更優質的視覺體驗。
To accommodate for the rising penetration of AMOLED displays in smartphones, UMC is the first in the industry to launch a 22nm eHV platform, which reduces core device power consumption by up to 30% compared to 28m eHV processes. The new display driver IC (DDIC) solution also boasts the industry's smallest SRAM bit cells, reducing die area by 10%, as well as improved image processing speed for high-resolution images and fast response time.
爲了適應AMOLED顯示器在智能手機中的增加滲透率，愛文思控股是行業內首家推出22納米eHV平台的公司，與28納米eHV工藝相比，可將核心設備功耗降低多達30%。這種新型顯示器芯片(DDIC)還擁有業內最小的SRAM bit單元，可將芯片面積減小10%，並具有更快的高分辨率圖像處理和響應時間。
"We are proud to be the first in the industry to introduce a 22nm eHV solution, empowering our customers to develop compact, power-efficient display drivers for next-generation smartphones," said Steven Hsu, UMC's Vice President of Technology Development. "UMC has been the undisputed foundry leader in the AMOLED DDIC market since we started 28nm eHV production in 2020. With the launch of 22eHV, we once again demonstrate our world-class eHV capabilities and commitment to enabling our customers' product roadmaps. Beyond 22nm, our development teams are working on expanding our eHV portfolio to FinFET in anticipation of future display trends."
"我們很自豪成爲行業內率先推出22納米eHV解決方案的公司，這將賦能我們的客戶開發下一代智能手機的緊湊、省電顯示芯片。"愛文思控股技術開發副總裁Steven Hsu說道:"自2020年28納米eHV生產以來，UMC一直是AMOLED DDIC市場不容置疑的代工領導者。推出22eHV後，我們再次展示了我們世界一流的eHV能力，並承諾支持實現客戶的產品路線圖。我們的開發團隊正在努力將我們的eHV產品系列擴展到FinFET，以應對未來的顯示器發展趨勢。"
With decades of experience in DDIC technology development and wafer manufacturing, UMC was the first pure-play foundry to begin mass production of 28nm small-panel DDICs. Since then, UMC has dominated the 28nm small-panel DDIC market with more than 90% share*. Small-panel DDICs are used to power AMOLED and OLED displays in smartphones, tablets, IoT devices, and virtual reality/augmented reality applications.
憑藉幾十年DDIC技術開發和晶圓製造的經驗，愛文思控股是第一家開始批量生產28納米小面板DDIC的純代工公司。從那時起，愛文思控股在28納米小面板DDIC市場佔有超過90%的份額*. 小型面板DDIC用於爲智能手機、平板電腦、物聯網設備以及虛擬現實/增強現實應用程序中的AMOLED和OLED顯示器提供動力。
