Främjar innovation inom halvledare med Pilot Lines
Som en del av Chips for Europe-initiativet stödjer Swedish Chips Competence Centre (SCCC) utvecklingen av en avancerad halvledarinfrastruktur. Målet är att banbrytande teknologier ska nå högre mognadsgrad och snabbt kunna tas i bruk av industrin.
Dessa toppmoderna pilotlinjer kommer att ge svenska och europeiska företag tillgång till världsledande anläggningar för testning, experimentering och validering av nya halvledardesigner. Detta inkluderar integrering av banbrytande teknologier såsom AI, kvantdatorer, neuromorfa kretsar och energieffektiva lösningar.
Genom att möjliggöra omedelbar återkoppling till konstruktörer bidrar pilotlinjerna till att förfina och optimera halvledarmodeller innan de når fullskalig produktion. Detta påskyndar innovationen och minskar utvecklingstiden.
SCCC säkerställer att dessa pilotlinjer är tillgängliga för startups, små och medelstora företag samt industriaktörer på öppna och icke-diskriminerande villkor. Detta stärker Sveriges roll i det europeiska halvledarekosystemet. Insatserna kommer inte bara att driva lokal innovation utan också positionera Europa som en global nyckelpartner inom halvledarteknik och främja internationellt samarbete.

With early-stage process design kits (PDKs) and system prototyping, NanoIC helps stakeholders de-risk new features before mass production, supporting innovation in semiconductor materials and process modules.
PIXEurope: Advancing Photonic Integrated Circuits
PIXEurope is a European pilot line dedicated to developing and industrializing advanced photonic integrated circuits (PICs). Led by ICFO in Barcelona, this initiative unites 20 partners from 11 countries, to enhance Europe’s leadership in photonics.
Focusing on cutting-edge technologies, PIXEurope accelerates the adoption of integrated photonics across industries such as telecommunications, AI, healthcare, and automotive. By bridging research and industry, the pilot line strengthens Europe’s position in the global photonics market.
WBG pilot line
The WBG Pilot Line emphasizes the development of new semiconductor materials and technologies, including those with high performance and durability. The distributed pilot line is led by CNR-IMM in Italy with Swedish participation from four universities: Chalmers, KTH, Linköping University and Lund University. The Swedish focused materials will be in the first phase gallium nitride, silicon carbide, followed by gallium oxide, aluminum nitride.
The first results coming from the WBG Pilot Line will be the improvement of the efficiency of the high–end portion of the advanced power discrete device portfolio in Europe, and the development of the related value chain based in Europe. The second effect will be the creation of new and very innovative product families based on modern semiconductor materials and power devices having features and performance not covered by the current market.
