MPW / Shuttle access
XMC 45nm MPW
Plan a 45nm multi-project wafer run at XMC 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 45nm
45nm is a mature, low-cost node suited to analog-rich and mixed-signal programs. TOMPW coordinates 45nm MPW shuttles with embedded-memory and BCD options.
Typical applications
- ✓Mixed-signal ASICs
- ✓PMIC and analog
- ✓Industrial and automotive ICs
What a 45nm MPW at XMC involves
A 45nm 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 XMC's line on schedule.

Working with XMC 45nm MPW through TOMPW
Can TOMPW arrange a 45nm MPW shuttle at XMC?
Yes. TOMPW coordinates 45nm MPW and shuttle access at XMC for overseas teams, handling slot selection, EDA checks and logistics so your design reaches the shared mask on schedule.
What does a 45nm MPW run at XMC typically include?
A 45nm MPW run bundles your design onto a shared reticle with other projects, covering mask share, wafer fabrication at XMC, and standard probe. Packaging, final test and NTO transition are planned separately with TOMPW.
How long does a 45nm MPW cycle take at XMC?
Cycle time depends on XMC's shuttle cadence for 45nm, 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 45nm MPW at XMC?
After a successful 45nm MPW, teams typically move to NTO or full-mask production. TOMPW helps plan that transition, including package selection, test development and volume ramp through XMC and downstream partners.
