On last year's list of "Taiwan's Top 100 Patent Holders" TSMC was the new winner with a total of 441 patents. Because there is a high degree of commonality of design elements in different IC products TSMC uses "technology modularization" to make it convenient for customers to rapidly put together different designs for different demands.
去年，「台灣專利 100 強」名單中，台積電以 441 件專利成為新贏家，又由於 IC 產品設計的共享性非常高，台積電還以「技術模組化」方式，方便客戶依照各自不同的需求，迅速組合出不同的設計。
