NEC Electronics America has hired 60 new employees for its recently expanded fab in Roseville, California. Roseville is a 150mm wafer facility using 355-250nm processes but has recently added a 200mm line that will be capable of 150nm production.
"Our company has been impressed by the caliber of talent available in the greater Roseville area," said Gabe Kim, vice president of manufacturing operations and plant manager, NEC Electronics America. "With such fine employees and leading-edge manufacturing capabilities, we have built a reputation for providing a secure supply chain while meeting rigorous quality standards."
The company expects to see increased demand for 0.15-micron-based products from customers in the automotive industry, as well as from designers using general purpose semiconductors in consumer devices such as digital cameras, memory sticks, and mobile and handheld products.
