450mm - Who? When? Why?Mannerisms - David MannersJan. 27, 2014 |
The drive towards 450mm is not as unified as it was because the motivations of the three main protagonists have altered.
Back in the summer of 2012, Intel, Samsung and TSMC invested in ASML to fund the development of 450mm
Samsung bought a 3% stake in ASML for €503 million with a commitment to put up €276m for ASML’s R&D programmes.
Intel paid $3 billion for a 15% stake in ASML and said it would put another $1 billion into the R&D projects.
