MPW - Prototype Service
The Multi Project Wafer (MPW) service is a low-price, fast prototyping service, which allows customers to share mask as well as wafer costs with other customers.
Our co-operation with organizations like MOSIS, Europractice, Fraunhofer-IIS and TIMA-CMP enables highest flexibility in this service. For the next MPW start slot, out of more than 50 start slots per year. Please refer to our MPW calendar.
Currently the MPW program is offered from 0.8 µm to 0.35 µm processes including the following special technologies:
- CMOS Mixed Signal
- CMOS High Voltage (up to 50 Volts)
- SiGe-BiCMOS
Our standard MPW service includes the delivery of 30 dice for design verification.
Packaged engineering samples are offered within 2 days (ceramic) and 3 weeks (plastics) cycle time, respectively. The total turnaround time from MPW deadline to delivery is app. 6 weeks (CMOS).
