《日本經濟新聞》今刊出台積電(2330)董事長劉德音在台灣國際半導體展(SEMICON
TAIWAN)場邊受訪內容,透露「不排除收購1家記憶體晶片公司」。這顯示這家全球最大
晶片代工廠正在趨緩的智慧手機市場以外,尋找業務多元化的機會。
台積電透露可能發動收購實屬罕見,因該公司向來厭惡風險,極少做大型交易。隨著手機
驅動的獲利放緩,這家蘋果供應商正面臨業務多元化的壓力。
惟劉德音未具體說明潛在的收購目標。
許多市場觀察家認為,若能取得內部記憶體元件產能,對台積電將有好處,因為未來晶片
設計可能結合更多功能,以提升性能與電源效率。
台積電至今未有受關注的收購行動。該公司在先進晶片製造領域的2大敵手英特爾(intel
)和三星(SAMSUNG)較積極透過收購來進行擴張。
1位資深產業人士認為,全球第4大DRAM製造商南亞科技(2408)是台積電潛在投資目標或
合作夥伴。對此南亞科稱不清楚有任何收購談判,並拒絕進一步置評。
市場觀察家也表示,與全球第3大DRAM製造商、美國記憶體晶片製造商美光(Micron)共
組合資事業也是選項之一,而與全球前2大DRAM廠三星或SK海力士結盟的可能性較低。
DRAM(動態隨機存取記憶體)是從個人電腦、智慧手機和伺服器等電子裝置,到聯網車的
關鍵零組件。
台積電行動相關晶片今年恐出現史上首次全年營收衰退。行動相關晶片佔其營收的一半以
上,然而成長動能已經移轉,對AI(人工智慧)、高性能運算和汽車晶片的需求正在攀升
。
台積電生產各種邏輯和類比晶片,包括行動處理器、繪圖處理器、網路處理器、影像感測
器和電源管理晶片,但沒有記憶體晶片。之前確實考慮過參與競購全球第2大NAND快閃記
憶體製造商東芝記憶體(Toshiba Memory),但後來認為綜效空間不大,決定不參與競購
。
至於進行購併以外的支出,劉德音表示台積電的資本支出未來幾年將「持續成長」,不認
為美中貿易戰爭會影響台積電的投資計劃。
台積電企業訊息處處長孫又文今天則強烈否認這項傳言,劉德音的說法是對於任何購併計
劃「並不排除」,但台積電目前絕對沒有任何關於購併記憶體公司計劃或有任何購併的標
的,當然也就沒有要購併南亞科或他廠記憶體公司計劃,未來則不排除針對任何可能去做
評估。
微驅科技總經理吳金榮分析,台積電假如會對記憶體公司有興趣,最主要還是在於未來的
半導體元件將愈來愈整合在一起,台積電在邏輯晶片發展領先群雄,但未來如果要整合記
憶體上,可能就不如擁有記憶體事業的三星,加上記憶體和台積電目前客戶不衝突,不會
和客戶競爭,是未來長遠可以合作或投資的對象。
吳金榮進一步說,因此從這裡分析就知道台積電不太可能找的對象是南亞科,因為南亞科
在技術上並不如三星、海力士和美光,而NAND Flash則是以三星和東芝為領先,這也是去
年台積電曾評估過投資東芝的原因之一。(于倩若、蕭文康/綜合外電報導)
