news 28 Posted May 18, 2009 Global Foundries, the spun-off manufacturing arm of AMD, is aggressively pursuing new customers with promises of industry leading performance and efficiency as a startup in the foundry industry. We take a look at the technology and aims of this new giant, and see if they can in fact compete with the well respected and powerful TSMC.

One of the great questions that everyone has been asking is if NVIDIA would trust Global Foundries with their chip making, even though they are a subsidiary of AMD. I believe the answer to that is that if Global Foundries delivers on its promises of what their 32 nm process (and later 28 nm) can do, then customers will flock to Global Foundries."
