GlobalFoundries<\/b> announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding to drive its next phase of growth in China. Through a joint venture with the government of Chongqing, the company plans to expand its global manufacturing footprint by establishing a 300mm fab in China.<\/p>\n

GlobalFoundries is also investing in expanding design support capabilities to better serve customers across the country, the company said.<\/p>\n

The initial plan of the project includes upgrading an existing semiconductor fab to accommodate the manufacturing of 300mm wafers using GlobalFoundries’ production-proven technologies from its Singapore site. The proposed joint venture will provide immediate access to a state-of-the-art facility, accelerating time-to-market with production planned for 2017.<\/p>\n

The company said it continues to strengthen sales, support, and design services offerings in China. The company’s current presence is anchored by world-class design centers in Beijing and Shanghai, which have extensive expertise in custom designs supporting a robust ASIC platform, coupled with foundry design capabilities for a variety of technology nodes. These capabilities are complemented by key regional partners in its design and IP ecosystem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
