To produce systems-on-a-chip for the ever expanding range of multimedia and mobile communication applications, it is absolutely necessary to develop technologies for finer patterning and other new process-related technologies, so as to make the systems more efficient, less power consuming, and smaller. Hitachi developed these technologies prior to the 0.13-µm technology node and succeeded in producing prototype high-performance transistors. Hitachi will embody this technology in a platform then use it to develop high-frequency LSI chips, analog signal processing LSI chips, memory-embedded LSI chips, and many other products, in response to the enormous demand for digital information equipment.
