Prices for all TSMC technologies can be calculated through the online Price Request Form.
When 4 or more independent sub-designs are registered in one MPW submission to optimise the minimum charged area, an additional verification charge of 1,000 USD is applicable. This is regardless of the request and charges for sub die sawing (5 USD per additional die obtained from the base MPW submission).

Subdicing is not supported on mini@sic.
Design registration must be done at least 3 months in advance, preferably at the moment of reservation.
* The areas in the table for 28nm and 40nm are on-silicon dimensions. This means the designed area can be (area/0.81).

* UMC 0.18 and 0.13μ mini@sic rules

When the standard block of 5mm x 5mm is divided into 9 regular square sub-blocks, customers participating in the mini@sic program can submit one sub-block or multiple sub-blocks, depending on the size of their design:

single sub-block: design may not be larger than 1525μm x 1525μm
2 sub-blocks: design may not be larger than 3240μm x 1525μm
3 sub-blocks: design may not be larger than 4960μm x 1525μm
4 sub-blocks: design may not be larger than 3240μm x 3240μm
6 sub-blocks: design may not be larger than 4960μm x 3240μm

Final price = number of sub-blocks needed to fit in the design * sub-block price.

** UMC 65nm mini@sic rules

For the mini@sic program, customers can submit one sub-block or multiple sub-blocks, depending on the size of their design:

single sub-block: design may not be larger than 1875μm x 1875μm
2 sub-blocks: design may not be larger than 3950μm x 1875μm
