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,

Apple is expanding its US-made chip roster, but according to TSMC’s CEO, the most modern chips will continue being manufactured elsewhere.

TSMC's Arizona Fab 21 began 4nm chip mass production in Q4 2024. Costs are higher than in Taiwan; 2nm production starts in 2025, with 3nm expansion ongoing.

TSMC is drastically increasing its expenditures to get its cutting-edge 1.6nm chips into 'volume production' by 2026, with big revenue increases expected.

The CEO of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company said production of chips started in Arizona in late 2024, ahead of the early 2025 projected start.

The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. is officially producing advanced manufacturing chips in Phoenix, the company confirmed on an overnight earnings call. Why it matters: According to U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo,

Phase 1 of TSMC’s Arizona fab appears to be producing about 10,000 wafers a month, according to a recent report. The Taiwan foundry is understandably secretive about the chips it produces for customers,

TSMC on Thursday officially confirmed that its Fab 21 near Phoenix, Arizona, had begun high volume production of chips after months of rumors and a confirmation from the U.S. Commerce Secretary earlier in January.

Business is booming for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. with the global computer chip maker reporting a surge in Q4 revenue and big plans in 2025 as full production gets underway at its new factory in Phoenix.

You've got to spend money – like $36 billion+ – to make, er, AI chips TSMC is bumping capital expenditure in 2025 to between $38 billion and $42 billion in anticipation of scooping up more chip manufacturing contracts in the field of AI processors.
