  1. I think that this is mainly for LCD driver chips, but CIS is more attractive for stock market.

    1. Just remind you that OVT's first sensors have been made by Powerchip before they moved to TSMC. They have still some products on 12-inch line at Hsinchu. But from my point of view, they provide simply a process plateform that knowledgable design houses can make their own recipes.
