GlobalFoundries (GF) announced on 9 October that its Dresden SPRINT expansion had reached its topping-out milestone and outlined plans for the FDX Fusion FD-SOI platform. Golem published its report on 10 October. GF plans to develop and manufacture the platform in Dresden, with production targeted for 2028.
GF describes FDX Fusion as targeting “7nm-class digital performance”; this is not a claim that the process node is literally 7nm. The company positions the platform for Physical AI and energy-efficient integrated chips.
GF says the €1.1 billion SPRINT expansion is expected to lift Dresden capacity above one million 300mm wafers a year by the end of 2028. That is a company target, not completed capacity or current output. The FDX and SPRINT items form one connected Dresden announcement.

GF, FDX Fusion’ı “7 nm sınıfı dijital performans” hedefleyen bir platform olarak tanımlıyor; bu ifade gerçek üretim düğümünün 7 nm olduğu anlamına gelmiyor. Şirket, platformu fiziksel yapay zekâ ve enerji verimli, entegre yongalar için konumlandırıyor.
GF describes FDX Fusion as targeting “7nm-class digital performance”; this is not a claim that the process node is literally 7nm. The company positions the platform for Physical AI and energy-efficient integrated chips.
تصف GF المنصة بأنها تستهدف «أداءً رقمياً من فئة 7 نانومتر»؛ وهذا لا يعني أن عقدة التصنيع هي 7 نانومتر حرفياً. وتضع الشركة المنصة ضمن رقائق الذكاء الاصطناعي الفيزيائي والرقائق المتكاملة الموفرة للطاقة.
GF décrit FDX Fusion comme visant des « performances numériques de classe 7 nm » ; cela ne signifie pas que le procédé est littéralement un nœud de 7 nm. L’entreprise positionne la plateforme pour l’IA physique et des puces intégrées économes en énergie.
GF describe FDX Fusion como una plataforma orientada a un «rendimiento digital de clase 7 nm»; eso no significa que el nodo de proceso sea literalmente de 7 nm. La empresa la destina a IA física y chips integrados de bajo consumo.
GF beschreibt FDX Fusion mit angestrebter „digitaler Leistung der 7-nm-Klasse“. Das bedeutet nicht, dass der Prozessknoten tatsächlich 7 nm misst. Das Unternehmen positioniert die Plattform für Physical AI und energieeffiziente integrierte Chips.

GF, 1,1 milyar avroluk SPRINT genişlemesinin 2028 sonuna kadar Dresden kapasitesini yılda bir milyondan fazla 300 mm levhaya çıkarmasının beklendiğini belirtiyor. Bu bir şirket hedefidir; tamamlanmış kapasite ya da mevcut üretim seviyesi değildir. İki açıklama bağlantılı Dresden duyurusu olarak birlikte ele alınıyor.
GF says the €1.1 billion SPRINT expansion is expected to lift Dresden capacity above one million 300mm wafers a year by the end of 2028. That is a company target, not completed capacity or current output. The FDX and SPRINT items form one connected Dresden announcement.
تقول GF إن توسعة SPRINT البالغة 1.1 مليار يورو يُتوقع أن ترفع طاقة دريسدن إلى أكثر من مليون رقاقة سيليكون بقياس 300 مم سنوياً بحلول نهاية 2028. هذا هدف للشركة وليس طاقة مكتملة أو إنتاجاً حالياً. ويُعرض إعلان FDX ومحطة SPRINT كخبر واحد مترابط عن دريسدن.
GF indique que l’extension SPRINT de 1,1 milliard d’euros devrait porter la capacité de Dresde à plus d’un million de tranches de 300 mm par an d’ici fin 2028. C’est un objectif de l’entreprise, pas une capacité achevée ni la production actuelle. Les annonces FDX et SPRINT forment un seul ensemble lié à Dresde.
GF afirma que la ampliación SPRINT, de 1.100 millones de euros, debería elevar la capacidad de Dresde a más de un millón de obleas de 300 mm al año para finales de 2028. Es un objetivo empresarial, no capacidad terminada ni producción actual. FDX y SPRINT se presentan como un único anuncio vinculado a Dresde.
Laut GF soll die 1,1 Milliarden Euro teure SPRINT-Erweiterung Dresdens Kapazität bis Ende 2028 auf mehr als eine Million 300-mm-Wafer jährlich steigern. Das ist ein Unternehmensziel, keine bereits fertiggestellte Kapazität oder aktuelle Produktion. FDX und SPRINT sind ein zusammenhängender Dresden-Komplex.
A GF diz que a expansão SPRINT, de 1,1 mil milhões de euros, deverá elevar a capacidade de Dresden para mais de um milhão de wafers de 300 mm por ano até ao final de 2028. É uma meta da empresa, não capacidade concluída nem produção atual. As notícias FDX e SPRINT são tratadas como um único anúncio relacionado com Dresden.
