핵심 특성
주요 업적
대만 산업기술연구원을 이끌던 1987년 어떤 기업이든 이용할 수 있는 독립 반도체 파운드리인 TSMC를 설립했다. 컴퓨터역사박물관은 이 공로로 그를 2007년 펠로로 선정했다.
자체 칩을 설계하지 않고 고객과 경쟁하지 않는 제조 전문 '퓨어 플레이' 파운드리 모델을 고안했다. IEEE 스펙트럼은 이 모델 덕분에 신생 기업이 막대한 비용의 반도체 공장 없이도 칩을 설계할 수 있게 되었다고 설명한다.
1958년부터 1983년까지 텍사스 인스트루먼트에서 일하며 세계 반도체 사업 부문을 총괄하는 그룹 부사장까지 올랐고, 이후 제너럴 인스트루먼트를 거쳐 대만으로 옮겼다.
삶의 장면들
IEEE 스펙트럼에 따르면, 1985년 산업기술연구원에서 그는 하위 2퍼센트 성과자를 수습 상태에 두는 평가 제도를 도입했고, 직원들은 입법위원들에게 항의 편지를 보냈다.
이는 직원들의 반발에도 인기 없는 변화를 밀어붙이는 태도와 일치한다. 갈등 감내
타이베이 타임스에 따르면, 2009년 5월 TV 연설에서 그는 TSMC 직원들에게 해고된 직원들을 다시 받아들이겠다고 밝히고, 해고의 근거가 된 인사평가를 잘못 처리한 점에 대해 사과했다.
이는 비판을 받은 결정을 공개적으로 되돌리는 태도와 일치한다. 입장 수정 성향
전환점
1983년 텍사스 인스트루먼트를, 1년 뒤 제너럴 인스트루먼트를 떠난 뒤, 그는 주변 거의 모두의 만류에도 1985년 대만 정부의 산업기술연구원 원장직 제안을 받아들였고, 이것이 TSMC 설립으로 이어졌다.
이는 좌절 이후 새로운 환경에서 불확실하고 부담이 큰 결정을 받아들이는 태도와 일치한다. 위험 감수

- Morris Chang (Q4745214) -- verified live via the Wikidata API (2026-10-24): English label 'Morris Chang', description 'Taiwanese businessman and electrical engineer (born 1931)', born 10 July 1931, no date of death, Korean label present, P18 image 'Morris Chang 2021APEC.jpg'. Orientation only; not used as support for any row.
- Computer History Museum, 'Morris Chang' 2007 Fellow profile (computerhistory.org), read in full: Fellow citation 'for dramatically accelerating the production of semiconductor-based devices and systems by developing an independent semiconductor manufacturing foundry'; born in Ningbo in 1931; MIT mechanical engineering degrees and a Stanford PhD in electrical engineering (1964); 1958 to 1983 at Texas Instruments, rising to group vice president for its worldwide semiconductor business; 1983 president and chief operating officer of General Instrument; recruited in 1984 by the Taiwanese government to lead the Industrial Technology Research Institute, where he founded TSMC in 1987 as a dedicated silicon foundry open to anyone; member of the US National Academy of Engineering. CANONICAL SIGNIFICANCE SOURCE. Institutional and admiring.
- Tekla S. Perry, 'Morris Chang: Foundry Father' (IEEE Spectrum, 19 April 2011), read in full: a 13-minute magazine profile written by a technology journalist on his 2011 IEEE Medal of Honor, built on a visit to TSMC and an interview: his early yield-improvement work at Sylvania and Texas Instruments (the transistor line whose yield rose from near zero to more than 20 percent after months of process experiments); his pricing-ahead-of-the-cost-curve strategy at TI; the 1978 move to run TI's consumer business, which he says was a mistake, and his departure in 1983; one year at General Instrument; the 1985 ITRI presidency, where he introduced a review that put the lowest 2 percent of performers on probation, drew hate mail to legislators and was feared by staff; the 'pure play' foundry idea and TSMC's 1987 opening with $220 million of capital; tributes from Stanford's engineering dean, an Nvidia chief executive, a Marvell executive and a former TSMC chief technology officer (who says he 'does not tolerate fools'). Family and wealth details were NOT used. Independent journalism with named third-party voices, though much of the biography is Chang's own recollection.
- Kevin Chen, 'ANALYSIS: TSMC leadership change fuels questions about future' (Taipei Times, 15 June 2009), read in full: news analysis of Chang's surprise move to replace CEO Rick Tsai while remaining chairman; analysts from Daiwa and Credit Suisse question the layoff-and-rehire episode and the succession plan; reports that on 20 May 2009 Chang told employees in a televised speech that laid-off workers would be welcomed back and apologised for the company's mishandled annual appraisals. COUNTER-VOICE / critical independent business press with named analysts; speculation about motives was not used.
- Mark LaPedus, 'TSMC CEO change: What other analysts are saying' (EE Times, 22 June 2009), read through a page-summarising tool rather than the raw page: Chang returned as chief executive effective 12 June 2009 while remaining chairman, replacing Rick Tsai; analysts Joanne Itow (Semico) and Dean Freeman (Gartner) say his return restores customer confidence and note TSMC's 40nm yield trouble, rising R&D needs and the competing IBM alliance. Independent trade press; read second-hand through a summariser, so only its broad claims are used.
- TechInsights Chip History Center, 'Morris Chang - HoF' (chiphistory.org), read in full: short Hall of Fame summary stating that he is the father of the semiconductor foundry industry, that TSMC was architected to be trusted and would never compete with its customers, that before TSMC foundry services were a side business of competitors, and that he saw how electronic design automation's separation of design and process made it possible to split the industry into fabless and foundry. Brief institutional digest; admiring.
- Colley Hwang, 'Morris Chang: A banquet that marks the conclusion of an era' (DIGITIMES, 20 June 2018), read in full through a page-summarising tool plus the opening text: a commentary on a farewell banquet by the president of DIGITIMES, who discloses that Chang was a major investor in and early board member of his company; reports TSMC's chief financial officer saying Chang repeated that executives should be modest when listening and confident when deciding. DISCLOSED CONFLICT AND ADMIRING; cited for context only and not used to support any row; his remarks on China were NOT used (politics).
