TSMC to open four new chip factories at its Arizona facilities
Chip manufacturing giant TSMC’s facilities in Arizona, USA, will soon receive an iInvestment of 100,000 million dollars to expand its production capacity.
Specifically, according to Techpowerup and in the absence of official confirmation, this amount of money will be used to add four more factories to the set of facilities that TSMC has in the American city. To do this, they would have already acquired more than 3,600 square meters of land for the expansion.
TSMC will thus expand chip manufacturing capacity on US soil
The investment will come from TSMC itself and also from collaborating companies in its own supply chain. At the moment the deadlines in which the company moves to carry out this significant expansion are unknown, but taking into account the investment and the size of the expansion, we will possibly be talking about a few years.
In this way, TSMC will expand its chip production capacity outside its borders. Even so, let us remember that, despite having all this production capacity on US soil, some chips cannot be finalized in these facilities and must travel to TSMC’s home country to be completed, as is the case with NVIDIA’s Blackwell GPUs.
