List of Intel manufacturing sites


The following is a list of Intel's manufacturing and assembly/test sites. Processors are manufactured in semiconductor fabrication plants which are then sent to assembly and testing sites before delivery to customers. Approximately 75% of Intel's semiconductor fabrication is performed in the USA.

Fab 1Mountain View, California, USA1968
Fab 2Santa Clara, California, USA1968
Fab 3North Mines Road, Livermore, California, USA19721991Plant began making wafers in April 1973. First plant outside of the Santa Clara area, and is where the famous Bunny Suits were first introduced.
Fab 4Aloha, Oregon, USA19761996
2016
First wafer manufacturing plant outside of Silicon Valley and first facility in what is now known as Oregon's Silicon Forest. Production began for 3-inch wafers.
Fab 5 / D1Aloha, Oregon, USAPreviously a development facility, then production facility. Currently inactive.
Fab 6Chandler, Arizona, USA19802000First silicon wafer manufacturing facility in Arizona. Key architecture was the 286 microprocessor.
Fab 7Rio Rancho, New Mexico, USA19802002
2005
Production focused on flash memory chips. By the time production stopped, plant was producing 0.35 micron-6 inch wafers. In 2005, $105 million was invested to temporarily turn Fab 7 into a testing facility.
Fab 8Jerusalem, Israel19852008
2009
First Fab outside of the United States. Ended production with, what was at the time, the last 6-inch wafer fab. Building was converted into die prep facility to support nearby Fab 28.
Fab 9Rio Rancho, New Mexico, USA1987Facility eventually expanded to merge with Fab 11 in 1999.
D2Santa Clara, California, USA19892009 After being decommissioned, was converted into a data center.
Fab 10 / IFOLeixlip, Ireland
Fab 11Rio Rancho, New Mexico, USA
Fab 14Leixlip, Ireland
Fab 15 / D1AAloha, Oregon, USA2003 Previously a development Fab named D1A before construction began on D1B in 1994.
Fab 16Ft. Worth, Texas, USA2003 Planned to open in Ft. Worth, Texas in 1999, but was eventually cancelled in 2003.
Fab 17Hudson, Massachusetts, USA1998 2014Facility used older technology and closed because site was not large enough to accommodate a leading-edge fab. Made specialty products on the trailing edge of chip technology, and was last to make chips on 200-millimeter silicon wafers.
Fab 20 / D1BHillsboro, Oregon, USA
Fab 23Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA2000 2007Site originally purchased from Rockwell, but due to lack of demand and for financial reasons, Intel put it up for sale in 2007. It eventually sold in 2011 to the El Paso County government, who repurposed the offices.
