GlobalFoundries Inc. is the world's third largest independent semiconductor foundry, with its headquarters located in Milpitas, California. GlobalFoundries was created by the divestiture of the manufacturing side of AMD on March 2, 2009, and was expanded through its merger with Chartered Semiconductor on January 13, 2010. Advanced Technology Investment Company (ATIC) is the largest investor in the company. On March 4, 2012, AMD has announced that they have divested their final 14% stake in the company, which concludes AMD's multi-year plan to divest its manufacturing arm.
GlobalFoundries manufactures integrated circuits in high volume mostly for semiconductor companies such as AMD, Broadcom, Qualcomm, and STMicroelectronics.
The company has five 200 mm fabrication plants in Singapore, and two 300 mm fabrication plants each in Germany and Singapore, as well as a new 300mm fabrication plant under construction in Saratoga County, New York in the United States.
