Presentation of FAMES Pilot Line

The FAMES Pilot Line is a pioneering project, aimed at advancing semiconductor technologies in Europe. FD-SOI advanced nodes (10 and 7 nm), eNVM, 3D integration, RF components, small inductors for Power Management IC (PMIC) are addressed. This ​initiative, led by CEA-Leti and gathering 11 RTOs in Europe, aligns with the ambition of the EU Chips Act, which seeks to bolster EU semiconductor capabilities and ensure technological sovereignty. The FAMES Pilot Line includes a significant CAPEX investment plan for advanced semiconductor pieces of equipment. The FAMES Pilot Line will be opened to user projects through open calls and custom projects, thereby creating a vibrant semiconductor ecosystem in Europe.
