This investment will expand the capacity of this fab and provide more job opportunities for the company’s engineers working there.
Big investment
The company’s investment will provide employees at this fab with an additional 25,000 square feet of cleanroom space where they can develop next-generation manufacturing processes. In addition, this fab will be responsible for the start of mass production of the Intel 4 manufacturing process, which will occur in the second half of this year. While Intel 3 will be launched in the second half of next year, the 20A process will take place in the first half of 2024 and A18 in the second half of 2024.
This investment is also a way to reinforce the importance of this plant in the strategy of the American company. It is the most advanced plant in the world and that is why they want to maintain this position.
Intel is therefore committed to staying at the forefront of the market with investments that contribute to the development of new technologies and innovations of various kinds. So an investment of this kind is significant, especially in this Oregon plant.
