DRESDEN RAMP ON SCHEDULE, SAYS AMD

[9-inch]

The 90-nm production at Fab36 "began at very mature yields," according to Deppe. He reiterated that Fab 36 will ramp up to 13,000 300-mm wafers per month by the end of this year. AMD's goal is to increase production to "20,000 wafers per month in the second half of 2007," he said. "Nobody can install all the necessary tools any faster than we are doing now."

The conversion from 90- to 65-nm processes at Fab 36 is proceeding in "a well-integrated manner," said Deppe. AMD is using a methodology called "Shared Transfer Transistors." At Fab 36, where the first commercial 90-nm products rolled in March, Deppe said AMD began testing 65-nm transistors using 90-nm process technology last June.

The first 65-nm product, the dual-core desktop Athlon 6, will be ready in the second half of 2006, he said.
