The DSP registration is the 12th, following six existing overseas companies and five domestic companies. Accordingly, CoAsia SEMI, as a foundry partner, can receive Samsung's support or utilize intellectual property rights during product design and verification. CoAsia established its Hong Kong subsidiary CoAsia SEMI last year and has been accelerating its system semiconductor business by investing in design specialist companies SemiHow and Nexel. The industry expects that this foundry partner registration will speed up the foundry business.
