SOITEC SIGNS MULTI-YEAR AGREEMENT WITH AMD FOR THE SUPPLY OF UNIBOND&#8482; SOI WAFERS

More than $50 million total order projected for 2005 alone


BERNIN, France &#8212; January 17, 2005 &#8212; The Soitec Group (Euronext, Paris: SOI) today announced the signing of an agreement with AMD (NYSE: AMD) for a long-term supply of UNIBOND&#8482; silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers. Under the terms of the multi-year agreement, projected to total more than $50 million for 2005 alone, Soitec will supply AMD with both 200- and 300-mm SOI wafers, manufactured using Soitec&#8217;s proprietary Smart Cut&#8482; process.

Soitec, the world&#8217;s leading supplier of SOI and other engineered substrates, has been supplying AMD with volume quantities of thin-film UNIBOND SOI substrate solutions for the production of their most advanced microprocessors.

&#8220;We are extremely pleased with this follow-on order from our long-time customer, AMD,&#8221; said André Auberton-Hervé, president and CEO of the Soitec Group. &#8220;It reaffirms a mutual commitment to our relationship, as well as AMD&#8217;s continuing recognition and confidence in Soitec&#8217;s high-quality SOI material for volume production in both 200- and 300-mm wafer sizes. This order also further validates our decision to invest in 300-mm manufacturing during the last industry downturn, as it has strategically positioned Soitec to deliver the on-demand capacity needed to support our growing customer needs.&#8221;

Also nichts wirklich Weltbewegendes, bedeutet nur, daß AMD sein Chipgeschäft nicht nächste Woche aufgibt ;)
 
Aber irritiert mich echt, warum AMD keine Siltronic-Wafer nimmt. Die haben doch ihr Werk "nebenan" in Freiberg.
