The current facility was built in 1987. The site was originally established by National Semiconductor as a 150mm fab.

Prior to Texas Instruments’ acquisition of National Semiconductor in 2011, the fab began its conversion to 200mm

production. The 23-acre Greenock campus includes four buildings consisting of approximately 318,782 sq. ft.

Capacity In 2008, the Greenock fab initiated a

plan to convert its 150mm production

to 200mm.

As of December 2015, approximately

70% of existing volume qualified for

200mm production.

Tools & Infrastructure

The Greenock facility features 269 well-maintained front-end tools currently running 150mm and 200mm production from 7.0 μm

down to 0.7 μm. With the exception of the dry etch tools, the tool set is capable of producing down to 0.35 μm.

Greenock fab operations are fully supported by a robust infrastructure, including power, steam humidification, DI / incoming water,

controls / detection points, chemicals (CDUs), exhaust systems, gas plant (lease from AP), bulk gases, clean dry air (CDA), chillers,

boilers, house vacuum, process cooling (free cool), and make-up air.

Tool Highlights• A 200mm line currently running down to 0.7 μm node

• Most tools capable down to 0.35 μm with exception of

dry etch tools

• Highly capable line currently running processes at an

average of 14 to 18 mask layers with aluminium back-end

Regional Advantages

Scotland has a long-standing history of technological innovation in such fields as manufacturing, advanced materials, software, electronics, sensors, and photonics serving the oil and gas, renewable energy, aerospace, defense, and marine markets. Some 10,000 technology companies employ 161,000 people locally, including Rolls Royce, BAE Systems, Lockheed Martin, Oracle, Alexander Dennis, Selex ES, Thales, and Cirrus Logic.

Scotland offers key strengths in semiconductor design, sub-assembly systems and software, particularly in mixed-signal, analog design, and digital signal processing. With a particular focus on sensors, MEMS, and nanotechnology, key market areas include communications, medical devices, and sensing applications.

The fabless design sector is a real mix of international and homegrown Scottish companies, the key attractor being high-quality skills at moderate costs for Europe and low employee churn. Scotland offers a strong focus on addressing new opportunities in digital health and care, sensor systems, big data, and subsea engineering via new Innovation Centers connecting world-class academic research to industry. Digital technologies account for a significant proportion of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the UK, with ICT-related investment (IT equipment, communications equipment, and software) making up around 25% of all FDI projects.

Top European Technology Ecosystem Scotland is home to technology companies of all sizes, including Semefab, Raytheon Systems Limited, Compound Semiconductor Technologies, The Scottish Microelectronics Centre (SMC), Kelvin Nanotechnology Ltd. (KNT), Pyreos, 4i2i, Alba Ultrasound, Ampsys, Cascade Technologies, Freescale, Xilinx, Analog Devices, Broadcom, Dialog Semiconductor, Aydeekay, Pressure Profile Systems, and ESS Technology. Vendors are typically focused on mature technology nodes, but have also built specialist capabilities in areas such as MEMS and compound semiconductors.

Workforce & RecruitmentScotland’s workforce is one of the best trained, most reliable, and cost-competitive labor forces in the world. Scottish salary costs, including indirect social wage costs such as employer national healthcare insurance, are among the most competitive in Europe. Labor market regulations in the UK are the most flexible in Europe. With a world-renowned educational system and its ratio of university graduates per capita, Scotland’s talent base surpasses most countries of comparable size in Europe. From 2010 to 2013, the number of businesses operating in the Scottish ICT and digital technologies sector increased by 3.6% to 6,500, employing more than 73,000 professionals. With 16 universities, including Glasgow and Edinburgh, Scotland is known internationally for its outstanding academic expertise and world-leading research departments such as The Scottish Informatics and Computer Science Alliance (SICSA) and the Edinburgh Parallel Computing Centre (EPCC).

Accessible European LocationCentrally located in Greenock on the west coast of Scotland, the TI fab lies 20 miles from Glasgow airport, 30 miles from the city, and 75 miles from Edinburgh. From six main airports, 35 airlines provide flights to 30 destinations in the UK, Europe, North America, and global destinations. Scotland benefits from a great railway infrastructure ensuring frequent connections from all parts of the country and fast local commuter times.

Quality of Life Scotland is world-famous for its spectacular scenery, heritage, and vibrant culture. Western Scotland is a highly desirable location for people to live and work. The cost of living in Glasgow is 36% lower than in London. Scotland offers more than 550 golf courses. In addition to its amazing views, Inverclyde offers unique waterfront sporting and leisure opportunities, all easily accessible from Glasgow and beyond.

Economic IncentivesThe UK offers a corporate tax rate of 20% which, according to HM Treasury, means that the country has the lowest main corporation tax rate in the G8. Alongside this attractive rate for investors, there are other financial incentives of relevance that potential buyers may be able to take advantage of, including Regional Selective Assistance (RSA), Scottish Investment Bank (SIB), R&D Grants, Training Grant(s), Patent Box, Tax Obligation Accrual, and R&D Tax Credit (more information at www.hmrc.gov.uk/ct/forms-rates/claims/randd.html).
