OPEN-ACCESS
FAMES Pilot Line
The FAMES Pilot Line offers European semiconductor stakeholders from industry, research, and academia access to a unique slate of advanced semiconductor technologies. Users can access unique chip design and modeling PDKs, PDKs giving access to silicon, demonstrator results and best-in-class manufacturing & testing capabilities, all under a single banner.
This initiative aligns with the EU Chips Act to bolster the EU’s semiconductor industry and support European technological sovereignty. Collaboration with other pilot lines in Europe will help build a tightly interconnected European chip ecosystem.
