etchmeister, Your post prompted me to see what-ever happend to AMD's previous JV's. The UMC JV was not the first AMD JV that did not pan out. It was preceded by a disappointing JV with motorola. This link was written about exit from motorola JV, and entry into UMC JV. my-esm.com ---------- AMD/Motorola R&D deal will be phased out (02/01/2002 12:49 PM EST) "Motorola and AMD jointly came to the conclusion that the 65-nm effort needs to be very closely tied to the manufacturing effort," explained Ruiz, during a teleconference with analysts and the press on Thursday. "This technology is going to be challenging from many points of view. The intricacy and the linking that must exist in development and manufacturing is more crucial than ever." ----------- "Our joint venture with UMC will enable AMD to make the transition to 300-mm manufacturing at precisely the right time," Ruiz told analysts and the press. "We will gain immediate access to an existing 300-mm wafer fab for research and development activities [at UMC] and in the next few years we expect require substantial additional production capacity. "We believe the optimal time for us to make the transition to high-volume production on 300-mm wafers is in the mid-2005 timeframe when we expect to begin starting production on the 65-nm node," he added. ---------------------------------- "In order to get the cost benefits of going to 300-mm wafers you need to utilize the factory," said W.J. (Jerry) Sanders, chairman and CEO of AMD. ------------------
