According to reports in the Taiwanese press, the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has raised prices for its mature and advanced semiconductor manufacturing technologies. Rumors of the price increase started to make rounds in the media early morning in Taiwan, and later in the day, publications including DigiTimes and the United Daily News (UDN) quoted integrated circuit (IC) design makers to state that the price increases have indeed taken place. Insiders believe that the increases are due to constrained supply capacity in the semiconductor sector, which has been the focus of debate in the media for the past several months.
