MPW Cost Sharing Calculator
Allocate an agreed shared MPW cost by booked block area and block count. This is a planning convention, not a foundry pricing rule. Actual quotes may include minimum charges, process options and separately priced services.
Example inputs only, not current shuttle prices. Enter booked block dimensions, including any area allowance agreed with the provider, not bare die dimensions.
| Participant | Area mm2 | Share | Cost USD |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design A | 100.00 | 57.80% | $6,936.42 |
| Design B | 25.00 | 14.45% | $1,734.10 |
| Design C | 48.00 | 27.75% | $3,329.48 |
| Total | 173.00 | 100% | $12,000.00 |
Area = booked width x height x block count. Share = participant area / total booked area. Cost = agreed shared cost x share. Display rounding may differ by a cent. Minimum fees, options, packaging and testing follow the actual quote. This tool does not validate reticle fit or predict delivered dies, yield or cost per die.

How the split works
- Enter the booked block width, height and count for each participant. Dimensions must include any agreed area allowances.
- A participant's share = their booked area / total booked area. Their allocated cost = agreed shared cost x share.
- No die counts are inferred from standalone full-wafer estimates. Delivered samples, reticle fit, yield and per-die economics require the actual run allocation and quote.

These are industry reference ranges, not a quotation and not an offer.
- Every band on this page is deliberately wide. It is published so you can sanity-check whether a programme is realistic before you write to anyone — not so you can budget against it.
- Actual pricing moves with the season and with capacity. Foundry and OSAT utilisation changes month to month, and a window that is cheap in a soft quarter can be materially more expensive in a tight one.
- Mask, substrate, leadframe, gold, copper and tester-time costs all move independently of the node you chose.
