Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE:TXN) announced today the opening of its manufacturing facility in Richardson, Texas. The company expects to begin moving equipment into the facility in October.
Known as RFAB,("R" for Richardson,"FAB" for fabrication), the fab will be the world's only production facility to use 300-millimeter (12-inch) silicon wafers to manufacture analog chips, which are essential components in virtually all electronics. The facility will give TI a strategic advantage in high-volume production because thousands of analog chips can be etched onto each of these wafers, more than double the number on the more commonly used and smaller 200-millimeter wafers.
