What is a foundry? Fabless Design Center IDM A Foundry manufactures products for others: The foundry does not have its own products. It provides manufacturing services to the products companies Foundry Fab Assembly & Test Processed Wafer Design Center 3 Internal Fabless – companies who rely on the foundries for production IDMs ( Independent Device manufacturers ) who produce both internally and by foundries Semiconductor Chip
