Intel announces plans for first 12-inch fab in China

Intel today announced plans to build a 12-inch wafer fabrication facility (Fab 68) in China in the northeast coastal city of Dalian. The US$2.5 billion investment for Fab 68 will become Intel's first wafer fab in Asia and adds significant investment to Intel's existing operations in China.

Construction on Fab 68 is scheduled to begin later in 2007 with production projected to begin in the first half of 2010. Initial production will be dedicated to chipsets to support Intel’s core microprocessor business. When completed, Fab 68 will become part of Intel's manufacturing network that includes eight 12-inch factories in 2010 with other fabs located in the United States, Ireland and Israel.
