wafer.space has just opened our first pooled manufacturing run of GF180MCU with the purchase deadline of 28th Nov 2025.
Think of it like OHS Park for silicon!
You provide a 20mm2 design in the open source GF180MCU technology and you get back 1,000 parts. You can used an existing template or build something completely yourself with either open source or proprietary tooling (no required pad ring or management CPU).
I’ve noticed there are a bunch of tiny chip houses in China, like 5-10 employees, that have their own chip portfolios and even transistors. Typically in niche markets, of course. I’d love to see that kind of foundational innovation in the USA.

That’s great, $8.50 per chip, bonded.
