MPW / Shuttle access
GlobalFoundries 65nm MPW
Plan a 65nm multi-project wafer run at GlobalFoundries through TOMPW Service. We coordinate shared-mask access, EDA sign-off, shuttle scheduling and the downstream packaging or test path for global chip teams.
Why 65nm
65nm is a widely available, low-cost node with mature PDKs and ample IP. TOMPW coordinates 65nm MPW shuttles for prototype and volume production alike.
Typical applications
- ✓MCU and IoT chips
- ✓Mixed-signal and RF
- ✓PMIC and consumer ICs
- ✓Industrial applications
What a 65nm MPW at GlobalFoundries involves
A 65nm MPW (multi-project wafer) shuttle places several customer designs on one shared mask set, so each team pays only for its portion of the wafer. TOMPW Service handles slot selection, DRC/LVS review and logistics so your GDSII reaches GlobalFoundries's line on schedule.

Working with GlobalFoundries 65nm MPW through TOMPW
Can TOMPW arrange a 65nm MPW shuttle at GlobalFoundries?
Yes. TOMPW coordinates 65nm MPW and shuttle access at GlobalFoundries for overseas teams, handling slot selection, EDA checks and logistics so your design reaches the shared mask on schedule.
What does a 65nm MPW run at GlobalFoundries typically include?
A 65nm MPW run bundles your design onto a shared reticle with other projects, covering mask share, wafer fabrication at GlobalFoundries, and standard probe. Packaging, final test and NTO transition are planned separately with TOMPW.
How long does a 65nm MPW cycle take at GlobalFoundries?
Cycle time depends on GlobalFoundries's shuttle cadence for 65nm, usually a few months from mask data to returned wafers. Missing a window means waiting for the next one, so TOMPW recommends booking early.
What comes after a 65nm MPW at GlobalFoundries?
After a successful 65nm MPW, teams typically move to NTO or full-mask production. TOMPW helps plan that transition, including package selection, test development and volume ramp through GlobalFoundries and downstream partners.
