96 Microcontroller Product Lines for over 25 years now, and the IntelR 186 Processor Families, the Intel386T Processor Families and the Intel486T Processor Families for over 15 years now. Additionally, we have been manufacturing the i960R 32 Bit RISC Processor Families for over 15 years. However, at this time, the forecasted volumes for these product lines are now too low to continue production of these products beyond the year 2007.Therefore, Intel will cease manufacturing silicon wafers for our 6" based processes in 2007.
