History[1]
1983–91: History and incorporation
- On the 23 May 1983, MOS Electronics Corp. was incorporated in California, USA, which, over the next two years (1984-1985) transferred 16K/64K technology to UMC.
- In 1986, the joint development of 64K/256K CMOS SRAM technology with Japan 's FUJI and SHARP was carried out as well as the licensing of 64K/256K CMOS SRAM technology & products to Hyundai.
- In 1987 Mosel Taiwan Incorporated was founded by a merger of Mosel Electronics Taiwan Inc. and Vitelic Corporation.
- In 1988, Mosel Taiwan Inc. developed 1M CMOS SRAM technology.
- From 1989 - 1990, the R&D building was constructed; design of the first high-speed CMOS SRAM was carried out in Taiwan; joint development of 0.8~0.9 micron CMOS SRAM with TSMC; development of LATCH RAM, MUX RAM & ASM products; and a merger with Mosel-USA.
The founding and incorporation of Mosel Vitelic was in 1991.
1991–95: Public listing and capacity building
- In 1992, Mosel Vitelic developed IVR 1M Hi-speed DRAM and MASK ROM.
- In 1993, Mosel Vitelic undertook the construction of a 6" wafer fabrication plant while the SEC granted MVI listing as a public disclosure company. In the same year it received a VRAM grant from the National Science Council N. S. C. (now known as the Ministry of Science and Technology).
- In 1994, the Submicron wafer fabrication plant and pilot were carried out.
- In 1995, Mosel Vitelic Inc. had a ground breaking ceremony for its 8" wafer fabrication plant.
1996–present: New technologies
- In 1996, Mosel Vitelic Incorporated and Siemens agreed to form ProMOS Technologies, Inc.
- In 1997, Japanese Samurai bonds were issued.
- In 1998, a joint venture was announced between Mosel Vitelic Inc. and Siliconware to establish ChipMOS Technologies, Inc.
- In 1999, Mosel Vitelic Inc. acquired ownership of United Memories, Inc. and received RWTUV QS 9000 certification.
- In 2000, Mosel Vitelic Inc. and Sharp Corp. agreed to form DenMOS Technologies. Also, Infineon and Mosel Vitelic entered into a License Agreement. Mosel Vitelic Inc. also received RWTUV ISO-14001 Certification.
- In 2003, Mosel Vitelic Inc. received ISO/TS16949 Certification. It also withdrew from the DRAM market.
- In 2005, Mosel Vitelic Inc. expanded its capacity to 45,000 wafers per month.
- In 2006, Mosel Vitelic Inc. entered into an RFID technology transfer agreement with ITRI; logged a monthly output target of 60,000 wafers; announced new business activities in Solar Cell and RFID devices; and ceased the trading of Commodity DRAMs. Jean-Yves Duthel promoted plans for Mosel Vitelic Inc. to establish a plant in Quebec, however this was ultimately unsuccessful.[2]
- In 2007, Mosel Vitelic Inc. completed its solar cell production line and entered into volume production with an average efficiency of 15.4% and above.
