Chartered Semiconductor, a contract maker of semiconductors which fabrication process is aligned with Advanced Micro Devices and IBM, has started to produce chips for AMD, a news agency reported. The first shipments are scheduled for July, but the initial shipments will not boost AMD’s production capacity significantly.

“The initial loading for AMD is about 1000 12” wafers per month, on 90nm technology. Chartered started production in May, and shipment is scheduled for July,” an industry source familiar with the situation told Reuters news agency, adding that “AMD also has an option to increase the order to about 3000 wafers per month”.
