Is this an ASML competitor?

  No, quoting the article: > only really suits prototyping and low-volume runs rather than high-volume production at commercial foundries

    Aww, I really wanted a cottage industry of chip manufacturing
    • wyre 3mo ago
      I'm sorry but isn't cottage industry synonymous with small-scale manufacturing? It seems like fab2 is the definition of cottage industry chip manugacturing.

        > I'm sorry but isn't cottage industry synonymous with small-scale manufacturing? Wouldn't many 1000s of mini-fabs make for a significant combined manufacturing capacity?

          Thats what a cottage industry is? A lot of small producers making up a larger industry.

  This is "we fit on small FPGA but dont want to ship cheap commodity off the shelf hardware for some bizarre reason while cant even afford structured ASIC (you only pay for metal layer masks)" competitor maybe. Unless they offer some amazing analog capabilities.
