  The microelectronics industry of Shanghai is accelerating to gather in three areas of Pudong, Caohejing and Puxi (Songjiang and Qingpu), and at present has had shapes the microelectronics industry base basically characterized by "one belt two zones" across Shanghai from east to west. Shanghai has already become the most surging place of integrated circuit industry development and one of the most appealing investment cities.

  The Shanghai IC industry has witnessed a historical breakthrough in the integrated circuit industry for last two years; an IC industrial chain, covering design, assembly and test etc. upstream and downstream related industries and with reasonable structure and clear work separation, has shown up. With the implementing projects of Huahong NEC, SMIC, GraceSMC, AdvancedSMC, TaiwanSMC, Hanson Co., Xuqing Semicon as marks, the production line of 8 inches integrated circuits will have 11, and 4-6 inches production lines will have six; in addition, there are Huahong Design, VIA Technologies, SJTU-Han Chip, Fudan Micro-electronics etc, a lot of design enterprises; a number of professional assembly and test enterprises such as Intel, Amkor Technology, ASE Kaohsiung, ChipPAC, GAP tech have already registered in Shanghai.

  The Shanghai Pudong microelectronics industry belt, with Zhangjiang Information City as a core and Shengjiang road as an axis, extends to the Jinqiao Export Processing Zone and Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone and radiates toward the surrounding industry parks. The base core area from north to south is constituted with total planned area of 20.5 square km. According to the statistics, the increase of sales income of the integrated circuit in the microelectronics industry belt is over 100%. 5 production lines of 8 inches integrated circuits have been put into operation with annual output of 8" chip of 600,000 pieces and its production value is up to 7 billion Yuan.

  The Caohejing Hi-tech Park has become an ideal base for the IC industry. At present, the Caohejing Hi-tech Park accommodates more than 80 IC business enterprises, with 8,000 employees and is currently one of the biggest domestic bases of IC chips in R&D and manufacturing.

  The Songjiang Industry Zone lays emphasis in its new western region on enterprises, whose business is assembly of the integrated circuit, with planned area 18 square kilometers. Taiwan SMC, the world leader in chip manufacture, has signed an investment agreement with the Songjiang Government and located in the new western region.

  The Taiwan business industry park under construction in the Qingpu District is a core area of its microelectronics industry, with planned area of 9.9 square kilometers. A number of businesses has been digging here such as Hongmao microelectronics with total investment 3.6 billion USD, Hanson technology with 3 billion USD and Xuqing semiconductors 5 billion USD etc. have registered; meanwhile, Datang Mobilecom and ChenSE as micro-electronics business enterprises have already landed here.

  The critical is to enhance R&D, to broaden categories, to speed up upgrade and to raise profit. To promote interaction and development of IC design and whole-set, to promote combination of IT and other manufacture industries, to encourage electronic IT extension towards automobile electronics, digital TV, key elements and media content industries. To construct complete industrial chains with ability to research and develop, design, production, assembly, test and software etc. to make it become a state-level micro electronic industry base with international level.
