Lattice Semiconductor Corporation LSCC today announced a long term technology partnership with United Microelectronics Corporation UMC (TWSE: 2303), a leading global semiconductor foundry. As part of this partnership, Lattice and UMC will continue work, already underway, on non-volatile products based on advanced technology nodes and then quickly expand their efforts to include other Lattice product lines.
"As Lattice has pursued increasingly price- and power-sensitive markets, from communications infrastructure to consumer mobile devices, we have recognized that having a scalable non-volatile technology is a key success factor," said Darin G. Billerbeck, Lattice Semiconductor President and CEO. "Our acquisition of SiliconBlue in December 2011 provided that technology, and today's announcement with UMC gives us a foundry partner that is committed to deliver innovative products quickly using that technology. Lattice is already actively engaged with UMC, and we plan to release 40nm non-volatile products manufactured by UMC by the end of 2012; we are also targeting future generations of our key product lines at the 28nm node."
