When in the second half of the last decade, AMD has got rid of the production facilities in Germany, Globalfoundries company became the owner . In Globalfoundries assets added Singapore enterprises and advanced factory Fab 8 in New York State, USA. German production facilities underwent modernization and expansion.
Taiwanese industry sources said that now the interest in the assets Globalfoundries show the Chinese government funds. Considering that the Arab ATIC plans to get rid of Globalfoundries shares , the appearance of a potential buyer would be helpful. Chinese interest is simple: they need access to advanced lithography technology, as the flagship of the home CPU building in the face of SMIC they have now only mastered 28-nanometer technology, and up to 14-nm process technology means access by 2020 using Qualcomm and Huawei. Deal with Globalfoundries would allow Chinese access to the 14-nm technology using FinFET much earlier. Related Products :
