TAIPEI (Reuters) - Taiwan's ASE Technology Holding Co Ltd, one of the world's largest semiconductor testing and packaging firms, said on Wednesday that it would build a more advanced smart factory, as the industry continues to grapple with a labour shortage.
The new factory in Kaohsiung, powered by U.S. chip designer Qualcomm Inc's Snapdragon system, will be the first in the world to deploy a "5G mmWave new radio-dual connectivity standalone" network to improve speed, stability and equipment efficiency, the company said, marking the latest advance in ASE's automation push.
