GLOBALFOUNDRIES Fab 8 Construction Tour
 

GLOBALFOUNDRIES was spun off by AMD a few years ago. GLOBALFOUNDRIES as a company has a whole lot more customers than just AMD though. Its client list reads like a Who' Who of the silicon universe. It largest fabs are currently in Dresden, Germany (which I am sure most HardOCP readers are familiar with), and in Singapore (which is a lesser known lower profile facility still doing 200mm wafer CMOS and such). The other 5 fabs that GLOBALFOUNDRIES owns and operates are MEMS fabs, and these facilities are doing very well for the company currently. GLOBALFOUNDRIES newest fab is Fab 8, and currently under construction in Malta, New York, right here in the good old USA.
