标题: Nvidia 与 Global Foundries 签订合作协议
Nvidia signs up with Global Foundries

TSMC not the only one anymore

by Charlie Demerjian

September 21, 2010

NVIDIA HAS BEEN very clear that it is sticking with TSMC as it's only foundry partner, Jen-Hsun himself was adamant that it wasn't in the cards. Unfortunately, that statement was as real as the cards he held up a year ago.

Nvidia execs like to brag about their 'most favored nation' status at TSMC, and that is because of their loyalty to the foundry. The benefits are more along the lines of perks, but honesty has never gotten in the way of Nvidia messaging. Semiaccurate has seen evidence that Nvidia was negotiating with Global Foundries even as they were swearing undying loyalty to TSMC.

After a year or so of negotiations, it looks like Nvidia has finally signed with Global Foundries. The deal is still somewhat shaded in mystery, but it is unlikely to be for GPUs, sources say it is almost assuredly for Tegra and other ARM based chips.

Global Foundries is very tight with ARM, has SOI capabilities, and looks to be ahead of the competition for the next process generation or two. GloFo may be tight on spare 28nm capacity, so Tegra is a perfect fit, low volume and long lead times for any volume shipments.

If word of this infidelity leaks, it could mean some very awkward questions for the boys in green. Cheating on your fab partner is not taken lightly, but I still don't see Morris Chang brandishing a shotgun full of rock salt swearing up a storm. I do however see Nvidia losing a lot of their perks at the foundry. It probably would have been better had the company been honest about their intentions last year, but why break a long standing company trend?S|A

具体合作的是什么？

终于忍不了台积电了，呵呵

好像是soc芯片，Tegra，这就比较容易理解了.
GF代工ARM已经比较成熟

我记得黄老板还专门避过谣，说GF与amd关系过于密切，不会吧代工交给gf。
现在gf与amd关系不密切了？

如果没看错的话，Tegra先试试水。
GPU还是会很慎重的。

作者: iamspy 时间: 2010-9-21 16:55
哈哈，要我也签GF，随便流点Tegra，测试下GF的工艺流程。顺便还能拿个筹码压压台鸡店代工价格。

作者: WG_Baby 时间: 2010-9-21 17:00
Tegra、ARM給GF還是可以的吧，似乎GF的28HP、HPP比TSMC可靠得多，要命的HighPerformance-GPU還是給TSMC舒服些

Charlie 这次说的，不是半准了？

Global直接打个包把NV的GPU资料发给AMD了。

哈哈，要我也签GF，随便流点Tegra，测试下GF的产能。顺便还能挤一下amd cpu产能。

28nm HPP工艺，果然是给ARM架构用的

等NV收了Intel之后，相信也就10年左右的时间

回复 17# killpmp
咋不说个100年以后。10年后都没人记得挖这座坟了吧

by Charlie Demerjian？？？

这位就是那位说fermi推倒重来，gtx480全球只有8000片，还有一些别的经典的那位？

囧啊

GF 22/20nm用超紫外光刻了

作者: kmark 时间: 2010-9-21 23:14
前段时间N 饭不是拼命在踩GF么？现在**都转向了吧，所以说世事无不可能，说话别说得这么死，说不准那天N A建立战略合作伙伴关系

是人都不可能在一棵树上吊死，更何况还是台积电这种歪脖树
