Ronler Acres campus, on 229th just north of Cornell Rd, in Hillsboro OR. (Big buildings, multiple fabs... You can't miss it.)
  • Take a fab window tour
  • Walk the ?fab mile? ? all 4 fabs at Ronler Acres and get a ?special memento?
  • Make a Wafer cookie
  • Try on cleanroom ?bunny suit?
  • Play the latest computer games
  • Education partners like OGI and other
  • Enjoy BeeSafe!, Intel History, EHS, and many more booths
The fab window tour is the coolest part. You get to see inside both the 200mm and 300mm wafer cleanrooms. (No, you can't go inside the fab. And no, I won't smuggle you in. ;) )



Anyway, it's a lot of fun... And if you have kids, be sure to bring them along. Lots of stuff to do for the little ones. :)

No need to smuggle me in. Just point me to the nearest dumpster. :D

I've heard that some crazy sh!t gets thrown away.....

All the "crazy sh!t" gets destroyed... You'd never recognize what it was.

I'll be there again this year. Last year, my son was the first one to try on the bunny suit (free photos too!) And they had free pop and cookies! woohoo!

Oh, and you forgot to say the time: 10:30am-3:00pm. I recommend getting there early because the crowds get thick later.

I worked on installing many of the tools @ Fab 17 in Hudson, MA...

How many of you geeks can say that?:)

I went last year and had a good time, though my buddy and I were extremely hung over. Saw some pretty cool stuff, think I still have a set of cleanroom gloves laying around.

I'm taking a course in the fall where we work in a fab room. Obviously not on the level of a real one like Intel's :) That would be interesting to see.
