News: Insonics e AMD
Inviato: 29 nov 2002, 15:47
<br>Come già da tempo si vociferava del rapporto tra il produttore di silicio Insonics e AMD, ecco che arrivano nuove <a href="http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=6460">informazioni</a> a riguardo.<br>
AMD avrebbe scelto tale partner sia per la sua alta capacità di produzione di silicio (120'000 wafers all'anno), sia per l'alta conduttività termica del Silcio 28, prodotto dalla Insonics.
<p><i><blockquote>
Last week the CEO, James E. Alexander, addressed the firm's annual shareholders meetings and brought us up to date on its activities.<br><br>
He complained that the share price of Isonics (ticker ISON) was undervalued, particularly mentioning its SOI wafer business.<br><br>
Last month it opened its own SOI wafer fabrication plant and he estimated that in 2003 that market will grow by 72%, quoting Dataquest figures. The capacity for SOI wafers is 120,000 a year, and he said it had targeted 10 customers, seven of which had asked their names be kept confidential.
<br>
But, he said, applications include microprocessors, and its pure silicon, silicon 28, has properties including better gate oxide integrity.
