GoKawiilGlobalFoundries to launch 7nm-class FDX Fusion FD-SOI node in 2028
GlobalFoundries announced FDX Fusion, a new 7nm-class fabrication process based on planar fully-depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD-SOI) transistors rather than FinFETs. The company says it will offer more than double the transistor density of its earlier 22FDX node and will target automotive, edge AI, industrial and sensor applications. Production is planned to start at GlobalFoundries' Dresden facility in 2028, developed with input from CEA-Leti's FD-SOI research.
