Executive summary
Analysis of European fabshas shown that:
- There are 281 production fabsin Europe for ICs, MEMS, power devices,
compound semiconductors and packaging. 34 have 2 or more activities (ICs and
MEMS, ICs and power devices ...)
- For ICs:
- Europe accounts for 12% of worldwide 8'' eq. wspw
- STM and Infineon are among the TOP 10 worldwide SC companies sales
- Germany, France and UK have more than 50% of the total number ofIC
fabsin Europe
- For power devices:
- Europe accounts for less than 30% of the world production
- The fabsare evenly distributed through Europe. UK has the highest number
of fabs(6 out of 31 fabsin total)
- STM ranks as the 5th worldwide player in power device sales
- For MEMS:
- Europe accounts for 16% of worldwide sales
- Germany has the highest number of MEMS fabs(25 out of 67 fabsin total)
- STM and Bosch are respectively 3rd and 4th MEMS players in revenue
- For packaging:
- There are 50 fabsin Europe
- There is no large OSAT player in Europe (most of them are in Asia)
- For compound semiconductors:
- For compound semiconductors, the activity is mainly localized inWestern
Europe and Israel (29 fabsin total).
- There are two large players involved in LEDs: Osramand
Philips/Lumileds(but no facility in Europe for the latter)
- For R&D:
- There are 27 large R&D public institutes
- Europe has three world-class semiconductor R&D centresof semiconductor
excellence: IMEC, Letiand Fraunhofer
- In 2005, R&D spending by European IC companies stands at:
- STM: $6.4B (17% of sales)
- Infineon: $6.3B (19% of sales)
- There are seven 12”wafer fabsin Europe and 11 sub-90 nm
fabs(including one 45 nm Intel fabin Leixlip, Ireland)
- For ICs, most of the production is done on 8”wafers:
- MPUs, DRAMsand Flash are processed on 8”and 12”wafers
ÀÛÆÜ60% of MPUs, DRAMsand Flash are processed on 8”
- For MEMS and Power Devices, most of the production is done on
4”and 6”wafers (no 8”wafer line in production today for
MEMS in Europe)
- ICs represent 74% of total wspm(231 Fabsrepresent a total of 2.04 million
of wspm).
- European fabsrepresent a total area of 682,442 m2(corrected data, taking
into account combined activities).
- IC represent almost 75% of the total clean room surface
- Europe employs about 65,000 people related to fabmanufacturing activity.
- IC manufacturing is the major employer with about 51% of total European
fabemployment.
- CMOS, biCMOSand bipolar are the most used technologies.
