Middle East to seize the semiconductor foundry industry tycoon
In Electronic Infomation Category: R | on April 27, 2011
Future global semiconductor foundry industry, and DS21Q43AT datasheet and perhaps there will be such a situation: four Asians and DS21Q43AT price and one round of fighting Middle Eastern oil barons. You must know the top four global semiconductor foundry that TSMC, UMC, SMIC, Chartered, which are derived from Asia. The Middle East oil barons, the national capital Abu Dhabi in the Middle East controls the global foundry upstart GlobalFoundries. The name may be unfamiliar. However, if you know it is born out of the processor giant AMDs manufacturing sector, then you may find it responded with surprise. P>
The newcomers do not seem to fear competition from the existing situation. It is an aggressive momentum, tried to break up the "big four" companies created in the order: winkle TSMC, UMC, Chartered acquisition. P>
"If the Middle East, people are not playing one vote, I think, the future pattern of the semiconductor foundry industry will change." Kang semiconductor industry a great expert on the CBN, told reporters. P>
Grab the Middle East tycoon OEM P>
GlobalFoundries from AMD. The latter due to a 5.4 billion merger, resulting in debt, under the influence of the global financial crisis, last year, the company spun off its semiconductor manufacturing helpless, the introduction of a Middle Eastern countrys capital. P>
Taken over by the UAE state-owned venture of two companies, "Advanced Technology", "Mubadala." They named the new company GlobalFoundries, the Chinese, literally translated as "global foundry business," a broad meaning, the really little tolerance around the world. P>
The Middle East because of its wealth. In fact, as early as 2007, Mubadala already acquired 622 million out of roughly 8.1% stake in AMD. This time, they promised the new company will initially invest 2.1 billion, of which $ 700,000,000 paid directly to AMD, the next 5 years, will continue to invest 3.6 to 6 billion U.S. dollars, in particular the completion of the technological transformation of the German factory, and DS21Q43AT suppliers and as soon as possible Construction of the New York plant. Currently, AMD is waiting for New York State capital subsidy. P>
Intention to reverse the Middle East were previous orders AMD manufacturing model, that is no longer only serve the AMD itself, but rather to a new foundry model. P>
"The birth of oil dollars based businesses can be said that the global semiconductor industry, a landmark event." Kang said great, it shows that on behalf of the industry has replaced the earlier domination of the IDM model (vertically integrated production), a leading force in the . P>
This event to rival Intel I am truly "interdependent." Because, AMD from external forces and it will continue with PC processors, "two-person show" the. Thus, almost the first time, Intel tried to prevent the birth of this new enterprise, which immediately issued a warning against AMD, claiming that if it will come from Intels technology licensing go GlobalFoundies hands, will see its color. P>Intel does not take effect
obstruction. This year in March, GlobalFoundies officially settled in Silicon Valley, California. It is still the chairman of rival Intel executives - physically strong, cold face of the former AMD chairman Hector Ruiz. P>
Aggressive talent Assault P>
Really aggressive in the Middle East oil barons. Set up a few days, it on the current market leader TSMC uncomfortable, some personnel directly launched surprise attacks. P>
Last month, the company first TSMC Design Center Director SubramaniKengeri U.S. SanJoses move to, then luring the TSMC foundry technology is responsible for major clients Altera vice president of operations CurtisMojyChian.
Kengeri TSMC and Intel recently, but the platform of collaborative online go-between who now seek refuge with the Middle East rivals, TSMC and Intel collaboration will probably have some impact. The Chian is famous, he is among TSMC and Altera big customer service person in charge of the latest technology. P>
