We recall that the original plans outlined a 1.2 million square foot building that would produce 32 nm processors and cost about $3.2 billion. Since 2006, those estimates have changed a bit – the building, which will begin construction this summer, will have more than 1.3 million square feet and cost about $4.5 billion, including land acquisition and production equipment. The fab will be larger than Intel’s largest fab, located in Kiryat Gat, Israel, and will have more floor space than the Chrysler building in New York City (1.2 million square feet). Globalfoundries said that it will take about 5 million man hours to build the first module of the fab. The fab itself will have about 883,000 square feet, while the clean room will measure about 300,000 square feet. AMD said that, at full production, the facility will be able to crank out about 35,000 wafers per month, which is more than the Dresden fabs, which have a capacity of 25,000 wafer starts each. Intel’s fabs are rumored to have a capacity of about 30,000 to 35,000 wafer starts per month each.
