[openrisc] OR chip? Free .35 CMOS Foundry Run (fwd)

[oystein@homelien.no]

I'm just following opencores from the side lines, trying to learn, but I 
am looking for openrisc 1001 or 1200 implemented in an actual IC. :)  

Would offers like this "free engineering run" (see below) be an 
opportunity to get chips made cheap?  Is this the kind of process that 
could be used?

Alpha Technologies Foundry e-Newsletter May '02

In this issue:
1) Free Engineering Run on 0.35 um CMOS (deadline May 24)
2) New Alpha Wafer Foundry Processes

1) Free Multi-Product Wafer Run on TSMC Compatible 0.35 um CMOS*
Deadline for GDS submission is May 24, 2002
(*quantities limited - first come first served basis)

An Alpha consortium 8 inch wafer fab is offering a FREE 0.35 um TSMC
compatible CMOS wafer run. This is an opportunity to test a new second
source fab at no cost.

Please email sales@alphat.com for details, database requirements and to
apply for space on the multi-product wafer run ("pizza mask")

Process information.

The following TSMC compatible process options can be fabricated on this
run:
- 0.35 µm Double Poly, Triple Metal Mixed Signal  Process (Polycide).
- 0.35 µm Double Poly, Quadruple Metal Mixed Signal  Process (Polycide).
- 0.35 µm Double Poly, Quadruple Metal, High Resistive Poly Process
(Polycide)

We will deliver sample dies or packaged samples in plastic or ceramic
packages

Tape out deadline: gds data must be sent before May 24th

Fab out target date: end of August, 2002

Costs: all listed services are free of charge
