The EUROPRACTICE IC service offers low cost and easy access to ASIC prototype and small volume fabrication.
The service is offered by IMEC (B) and FhG/IIS (D).
Low cost prototyping is achieved by offering fabrication through regularly scheduled MPW (Multi Project Wafer) runs whereby many designs from different customers are merged onto the same fabrication run. These runs are fabricated in industrial CMOS, BiCMOS and SiGe processes from 0.8µ to 90nm at well-known foundries (AMI Semiconductor, austriamicrosystems, IHP, TSMC and UMC). A total integrated design and manufacturing flow is offered including cell library and design kit access and support, deep submicron netlist-to-layout, ASIC prototyping on MPW or dedicated single project prototype runs, volume fabrication, qualification, assembly and test. Volume fabrication starts with wafer batches as low as 12 wafers but can go up to more than 2000 wafers per year per ASIC.
