Korean Sites: Rewriting the Story of Innovation

It all starts here. Our South Korea fab network forms a triad (Giheung, Hwaseong, and Pyeongtaek) of knowledge sharing and fast transport where we manufacture chips for the world-changing devices. Three world-class facilities within about an 18-mile radius collaborate to supercharge development and streamline customer services, while teams of world-class scientists, engineers, and subject matter experts are on hand to tackle even the most complex manufacturing challenges.

Our Innovation Triad

Strategically positioned just south of Seoul, the Giheung fab was founded in 1983. It specialized in mainstream nodes ranging from 350nm to 8nm solutions. We took innovation further with our Hwaseong fab in 2000 and employed the latest R&D and production capabilities including breakthrough EUV. Hwaseong now produces the 10nm to 3nm processes that power leading edge products. Completing the trio, our state-of-the-art Pyongtaek fab now mass produces further advanced nodes as we seek new frontiers and push the boundaries of Moore’s law.

U.S. Sites: Everything is Bigger in Texas

Expanding Samsung Foundry’s footprint across the U.S., the Austin and Taylor fabs—located in Texas within about 30 miles of each other—are designed to increase capacity and flexibility for a growing network of manufacturing customers. Equivalent in complexity to Korea’s fabs, the two sites draw on thousands of talented experts and technologists across the continent to support an endless variety of products, making each foundry facility more than the sum of its parts

The largest single fab in the U.S. is in Austin. In operation since 1996, the Austin fab provides stable manufacturing of 65nm to 14nm processes. Expanding those boundaries in service and production scale is the new 5 million m2 fab in Taylor, scheduled to start mass production in 2024. Support from the nearby Austin site and collaboration with Korea’s manufacturing network ensure the Taylor fab rapidly scales up Samsung Foundry’s global manufacturing from its launch.
