WhassupYouth - Re: "Intel needs to get into this technology (either buying it or developing it themselves) in a big way if they want to compete in future "

Intel IS INVOLVED in SiGe - with a 20% ownership of a pure SiGe foundry fab being built in Germany.

Maybe AMD should get involved - or get left behind.

Communicant Semiconductor Technologies, Frankfurt (Oder), Germany, Tuesday said it will break ground this month for its new pure-play silicon-germanium wafer foundry at its German site. M+W Zander, fab consultant and construction contractor, has been selected for building the new plant. The foundry will have more than 86,000 square feet of clean room space.

Communicant officials said initial production is expected in Q1 '03. Intel Corp. has a minority 20% stake in Communicant.

Previously the German firm was reported to be solicited financing in Dubai, Arab Emirates. It wasn't known if the firm succeeded in gaining any Arab funding.
