        Google announced on the 4th that GlobalFoundries has officially joined its open source chip project, and the two companies have jointly released a process design kit ( PDK ) for the GlobalFoundries 180MCU technology platform based on the Apache 2.0 license.
        Google noted that according to Microchip, global capacity for applications using 180nm is more than 16 million wafers and will grow to more than 22 million wafers by 2026. 180nm will continue to be used in motor controllers, RFID, general-purpose MCUs and PMICs, as well as IoT sensors, dual-band RFID and motor drives. 
        Google said the Lattice 180nm technology platform provides open source chip designers with new capabilities for high volume production, affordability and more voltage options. The partnership will help drive innovation for applications and chip engineers in these high-growth areas and is a clear affirmation of the viability of open source models for the foundry ecosystem.
