BAW filters/power amps/GaAs pHEMT/GaN-on-SiC fab; site was formerly a DRAM fab (TwinStar). Process nodes removed 21 August 2026. The only source on this row is Wikipedia's fab list, which has no process-node column, so the values it carried had no publisher. Sources were chased for all 18 such rows, and a node value goes back in once it can carry its own source. Two lines, one row, flagged 21 August 2026: the 200mm figure is the silicon BAW filter line. The compound line at this site is 150mm, and was 100mm before about 2015. A node figure for this fab belongs to the compound line and not to the wafer size recorded here.
