Recently, at the "Intel Cup" first Tsinghua University Innovation and Entrepreneurship Practice Summer Camp and the "Intel Global Technology Entrepreneurship Challenge" China selection competition, Intel Global Vice President and China President Yang Xu said that Intel Dalian Chip Factory (Fab 68) will open at the end of the year It is completed and will be officially put into production in the second half of next year.
As Intel’s eighth 300mm fab in the world and Asia’s first. The total investment in Intel's Dalian chip factory is as high as US$2.5 billion. Intel's Dalian chip factory has a total usable area of 163,000 square meters, including a 15,000 square meter clean room. It will use Intel's advanced nano-process technology and cooperate with the world's mainstream 300mm wafer technology to improve Intel's global footprint. Chip production network.
As Intel's first wafer fab in Asia, the Dalian chip plant has attracted attention from all parties since its construction began. Previously, due to the impact of the financial crisis, Intel announced the closure of its Shanghai packaging plant. As a result, the industry was worried that the Dalian chip plant under construction would also be affected to a certain extent.
However, the global economic crisis has not shaken Intel's confidence in Dalian and China. Yang Xu said that the impact of the economic crisis has gradually subsided. As Intel's most important market in the world outside the US market, Intel has formed an industrial chain in the Chinese market of R&D (Dalian chip factory), packaging and testing (Chengdu factory) and sales. .
Moreover, the use of Intel chips has extended from computers and personal PCs to mobile terminals, such as netbooks and mobile phones, which will help expand the market demand for Intel products.
Intel Dalian Chip Factory will not only introduce advanced chip manufacturing technology to China, but also continue Intel's commitment and goals in environmental health and safety (EHS), become an EHS benchmark in the community and industry, and bring a "green" to China. "Chip factory.
