Semefab starts building CMOS3 wafer fab

Abstract:
Semefab (Scotland) Limited, based in Glenrothes, Scotland, has begun building its CMOS3 wafer fab aimed at supporting front-end processing of MEMS structures. Semefab's CMOS3 is slated to become operational in June 2010.

The company, with financial support from the Technology Strategy Board of the government of the United Kingdom as well as from Scottish Enterprise, will spend about $11 million to create a 0.5-micron-capable CMOS facility to support its MEMS making capability.
