Redefining the Foundry Model: Abu Dhabi versus Taiwan
April 12, 2010
It was a pleasure to see the GlobalFoundries (GFI) corporate pitch at the Mentor Graphics U2U Conference last week. Wally Rhines is a tough act to follow but Mojy Chian, Senior Vice President of Design Enablement at GlobalFoundries, presented a compelling argument for a refined foundry business model. The GFI people were also nice enough to send the presentation, offer a private briefing, and honor my request for a picture of an actual 28nm test chip wafer.
