What companies (probably China / Taiwan based) do the manufacturing for the ASIC companies? Does anyone know?

I understand you need highly specialized facilities to mass produce a given chip design -- so who are these ASIC companies outsourcing to in order to build their product?

Cheers

My understanding is that Avalon ASICs were fabricated by TSMC in Taiwan. I am not sure who did BFL ASICS.
