銳相科技 (IC Media Corporation) 今日 (11日) 宣佈該公司三百萬像素 CMOS 影像感應器產品線技術的新里程碑：以業界最小像素尺寸 2.8 x 2.8 微米，使用聯華電子 0.18 微米混合信號製程生產。銳相科技所研發的三百萬像素感應器，將可縮小相機模組於應用產品中，如照相手機內的體積。該公司將持續致力於發展更小的微米像素尺寸以擴充三百萬像素產品線。

銳相科技總裁吳炳松先生表示：“此感應器的生產為業界的一大創舉，我們相信這是第一個像素尺寸縮至 0.28 微米的 CMOS 影像感應器，因此我們期待推出以 0.28 或更小微米像素設計之一系列產品，將可廣泛應用於具嵌入式高解析度相機的消費性電子產品。與晶圓專工夥伴聯華電子的密切合作，與採用其 0.18 微米 CMOS 混合信號製程為成功完成此設計製造的主因。未來我們將持續與聯華電子長期合作，建立雙贏。”

聯華電子美洲事業群總經理劉富臺先生表示：“聯華電子十分榮幸能提供可推動銳相科技創新產品解決方案的製程技術。我們相信以銳相科技於業界的卓越表現，且產品設計兼具成本效益與輕巧體積的特性，其產品創新將會十分成功。其產品正可滿足快速成長中，具高性能影像感應器技術之手提式消費性電子市場。我們期待銳相科技推出全系列 CMOS 感應器產品並且提供最佳支援。”
