[Reporter Wu Baixuan/Taipei Report] The "Sacred Mountain of Protecting the Country" gathered together industry, government, academia and research. The National Science Council held the 2023 Taiwan Semiconductor Industry-University Forum today (22nd). Chairman Wu Zhengzhong said that the world has paid attention to Taiwan in the past three years, but we To be safe, all industries will infiltrate IC design in the future, and we must seize the opportunity to let Taiwan go further, such as laying out sub-nanometer-scale semiconductors in advance, focusing on higher-frequency, high-voltage-resistant compound components, etc.

Wu Zhengzhong said that Taiwan has attracted global attention due to semiconductor technology. In the past three years, the world suddenly discovered the existence of Taiwan, and even reversed to Thailand and was mistaken for Taiwan. However, it is estimated that this prospect will be at most 3 to 5 years. Taiwan We should seize the opportunity to go further, and be prepared for danger at a high level.

Wu Zhengzhong said that he is actively working with relevant ministries and committees to closely integrate software research and development, IC design, chip manufacturing, etc., to plan the layout of semiconductor technology and industry in 2035, aiming to surpass the global silicon manufacturing process by 2030, and said that semiconductors will penetrate into all industries in the future, such as IC design From the original mobile phone, computer to car, it will gradually enter precision health, biotechnology medical treatment, agriculture and other food, clothing, housing, transportation and entertainment, Taiwan should master it.

Future talent is also an important training. Wu Zhengzhong said that he is also planning to build an international IC design training base in Taiwan in the future, hoping to get more budget. He also mentioned that German Federal Minister of Education and Research Stark-Wattsinger visited Taiwan yesterday and witnessed Taiwan. Germany has signed a bilateral scientific and technological cooperation agreement, and hopes that European countries will also come in the future to join the one-stop training model for Taiwan's IC design talents. If this attracts international partners to join, it will also attract international capital cooperation.

Qiu Qiuhui, director of the Technology Division of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, said that Taiwan's semiconductor output value will reach 4.7 trillion yuan in 2022, ranking second in the world. Early deployment, such as the launch of "AI on Chip" 3 years ago to achieve more energy-efficient AI chips, and also provide related technologies such as miniaturization and heterogeneous integration for Taiwan's advanced manufacturing process, making chips more efficient, higher value, and new materials Applied to promote compound semiconductor projects.

The National Science Council pointed out that for the forward-looking technology of semiconductors, the Å generation semiconductor project at the sub-nanometer scale has been laid out in advance. meters); and focus on higher-frequency, high-voltage-resistant compound semiconductor components, and develop key emerging chips, layout AI chip computing and communication chip design, etc.
