Intel opens Fab 24-2 in Leixlip, Ireland
Intel Corp. inaugurated a factory Thursday that manufactures the semiconductor company's newest chips, using an industry-leading technology that allows computers to work faster using less energy. Bring on the 65nm processors!
Chief Executive Paul Otellini officially opened the Fab 24-2 plant in Leixlip, west of Dublin, Intel's major manufacturing base in Europe since 1989. The plant, which began production three months ago, joins similar facilities in two U.S. states in making Intel's most efficient microprocessor, the chips that run computers and other electronic devices. Intel's first plant that uses circuit widths of 65 nanometers (a human hair is about roughly 80,000 nanometers in diameter) began production last year in Portland, Ore. The second started up earlier this year in Chandler, Ariz.
