NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ: NXPI) today announced it is
strengthening its European research and development (R&D)
through grants to be provided via the 2nd Important Project of
Common European Interest on Microelectronics and Communication
Technologies (IPCEI ME/CT), with the final investment decision
pending confirmation of the level of public funding. Dedicated NXP
teams across Austria, Germany, the Netherlands and Romania will
innovate in core technologies across automotive, industrial and
cybersecurity. This includes 5nm, advanced driving assistance and
battery management systems in automotive, 6G and Ultra-Wideband as
well as artificial intelligence (AI), RISC-V and post-quantum
cryptography.
“NXP’s planned investments in our Austrian, German, Dutch, and
Romanian operations signal our strong commitment to the EU’s goal
of enabling both digital and green transition,” said Kurt Sievers,
President and CEO of NXP. “Our activities through IPCEI ME/CT
complement NXP’s planned joint venture participation in TSMC’s
first European foundry. It also underscores our commitment to
strengthening innovation and supply chain resilience in Europe. NXP
believes expanding research, development, and manufacturing efforts
in Europe is of vital importance, and each of these three critical
elements must be successfully integrated to achieve greater
European semiconductor ecosystem resilience.”
Extensive research, development, and manufacturing presence
across multiple sites in all four countries enable NXP to develop
cutting-edge technology and products that contribute significantly
to the achievement of EU industrial strategies. In close
collaboration with a strong ecosystem of more than 50 partners from
industry and academia across Europe, NXP will strengthen key
technologies of microelectronics in Europe.
No other microelectronics company participating in IPCEI ME/CT
is currently planning to invest in its operations across so many EU
member states. NXP is also an active participant in three of the
four IPCEI ME/CT workstreams: “Sense”, “Think”, and “Communicate”,
reflecting NXP’s areas of leadership and strategic focus.
NXP’s planned investments in Austria, Germany, the Netherlands,
and Romania follow the announcement that the company is going to
form a new joint venture, ESMC (European Semiconductor
Manufacturing Company), with TSMC, Bosch, and Infineon with plans
to establish TSMC’s first semiconductor manufacturing site in
Europe. The new 300mm fab, planned to be built in Dresden, Germany,
is expected to have a monthly production capacity of 40,000 300mm
(12-inch) wafers on TSMC’s 28/22 nanometer planar CMOS and 16/12
nanometer FinFET process technology, further strengthening Europe’s
semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem with advanced FinFET
transistor technology and creating about 2,000 direct high-tech
professional jobs.
