More details about the impact of Taiwanese earthquake impact on TSMC emerge: up to 20,000 wafers could be affected.
TSMC manufactures more than 90% of the world’s most advanced logic chips, making it the world leader in semiconductor manufacturing. Back in 2020, it announced the creation of TSMC Arizona and an initial $12 billion commitment to building its first U.S.-located advanced fabrication plant in Phoenix.
TSMC's new U.S. plant is unlikely to get the most advanced chip technology before factories in Taiwan due to complex compliance issues, local construction regulations and various permitting requirements,
The powerful 6.4 magnitude earthquake that struck southern Taiwan on January 21 has led to a disruption in production at TSMC. While there were no reported
TSMC is advancing its compact optical engine technology, branded as COUPE, a top priority among its emerging innovations. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, during a recent visit to Taiwan, highlighted collaboration with TSMC on silicon photonics,
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. evacuated factories following a 6.4 magnitude earthquake near the city of Chiayi that injured at least four people and suspended work at factories across the island’s south.
TSMC has been promised $6.6 billion under the Biden-administration’s CHIPS and Science ACT to help build three cutting-edge chip fabrication plants in Arizona.
TAIPEI (Reuters) -Chipmaker TSMC said on Tuesday that all its sites were operating following an overnight 6.4 magnitude earthquake in southern Taiwan that was centred on a mountainous rural area and caused only minor damage and light injuries.
