FAMES

The FAMES Pilot Line, funded by the European Chips Act, advances 10nm and 7nm FD-SOI technology for innovative semiconductor applications, uniting European partners to foster an open-access manufacturing ecosystem.

The main goals of the project are:

  • Develop advanced FD-SOI technology at 10nm and 7nm levels to support innovations in non-volatile memories, RF components, and power management.
  • Enhance Europe's semiconductor industry by providing state-of-the-art manufacturing tools and infrastructure to increase production capacity.
  • Enable open-access semiconductor services through a distributed fabrication model, fostering collaboration and innovation across Europe.

The FAMES project, led by CEA Leti, is a European pilot line initiative involving 10 partners across Europe. It is set to run for four years with a total funding of 830 million euros, of which 20 million are dedicated to SAL.
