Capacity[5] for Foundry Segment
Capacity during the second quarter was 1,597K 8-inch equivalent wafers. The incremental increase in 34K 8-inch equivalent wafers during 2Q14 was primarily due to capacity expansion at Fab 12A, Fab 12i and Fab 8N. UMC's estimated capacity in 3Q14 will be 1,586K 8-inch equivalent wafers, due to the change in capacity profile at Fab 8D and capacity upgrades at Fab 12i.
