The following is a list of Intel's manufacturing and assembly/test sites. Processors are manufactured in semiconductor fabrication plants ("fabs") 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.[1]

Past Fab Sites[edit]

Fab name Location Opened Closed Notes
Fab 1 Mountain View, California, USA 1968
Fab 2 Santa Clara, California, USA 1968
Fab 3 North Mines Road, Livermore, California, USA 1972 1991 Plant began making wafers in April 1973. First plant outside of the Santa Clara area, and is where the famous Bunny Suits were first introduced.[7]
Fab 4 Aloha, Oregon, USA 1976 1996 (decommissioned)
2016 (demolished) 		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.[8]
Fab 5 / D1 Aloha, Oregon, USA Previously a development facility, then production facility. Currently inactive.[9]
Fab 6 Chandler, Arizona, USA 1980 2000 First silicon wafer manufacturing facility in Arizona. Key architecture was the 286 microprocessor.
Fab 7 Rio Rancho, New Mexico, USA 1980 2002
2005 (converted to test facility) 		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.[10]
Fab 8 Jerusalem, Israel 1985 2008
2009 (converted to die prep facility) 		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.[11]
Fab 9 Rio Rancho, New Mexico, USA 1987 Facility eventually expanded to merge with Fab 11 in 1999.[12]
D2 Santa Clara, California, USA 1989 2009 (decommissioned) After being decommissioned, was converted into a data center.[13]
Fab 10 / IFO Leixlip, Ireland
Fab 11 Rio Rancho, New Mexico, USA 2014 (see Notes for Fab 9)
Fab 11X Rio Rancho, New Mexico, USA 2014 Facility used older technology and closed (along with Fab 17). Produced chips with 32-nanometer and 45nm circuitry, two and three generations behind the 14nm technology being produced at the Ronler Acres campus in Hillsboro.[14]
Fab 14 Leixlip, Ireland
Fab 15 / D1A Aloha, Oregon, USA 2003 (converted to assembly / test) Previously a development Fab named D1A before construction began on D1B in 1994.[15]
Fab 16 Ft. Worth, Texas, USA (never opened) 2003 (cancelled) Planned to open in Ft. Worth, Texas in 1999, but was eventually cancelled in 2003.[16]
Fab 17 Hudson, Massachusetts, USA 1998 (acquired from DEC) 2014 Facility used older technology and closed (along with Fab 11X) 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.[17]
Fab 20 / D1B Hillsboro, Oregon, USA
Fab 21 Rio Rancho, New Mexico, USA [18]
Fab 22 Chandler, Arizona, USA [19]
Fab 23 Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA 2000 (acquired from Rockwell) 2007 Site 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.[20]
