AMD has announced that it has completed the construction of its new Bump and Test facility, adjacent to Fab 30 in Dresden, Germany. Tool installation is now taking place in the 20,000m² building.
"At our Dresden site, we have gained extensive experience in precision planning and rapid implementation of large-scale projects," explained Dr. Hans Deppe, corporate vice president and general manager of AMD in Dresden. "However, I am amazed at the speed at which construction of the new clean room premises and supporting infrastructure has progressed."
The added capacity is designed to make more space available in both its front-end fabs at the same location as well as to handle the capacity ramps at Fab 36 and Fab 38, after completion of its conversion from a 200mm fab to a 300mm facility.
