, ‘Taiwan media outlets like the Economic Daily News and United Daily News reported today, citing sources, that TSMC, the world’s largest semiconductor foundry, is planning to build a cutting-edge 3 plant with a process of 2 nanometers or above in Arizona, USA.’,
,
, ‘ According to sources, TSMC is expected to start cutting-edge semiconductor production at the Arizona plant by the end of 2029.’,
,
, ” TSMC has already invested $40 billion to build two semiconductor production plants, called ‘fabs,’ in Phoenix, Arizona. The first fab is about to complete construction for mass production of 4-nanometer products in the first half of next year, and the second fab is scheduled to produce wafers using 2-nanometer process technology starting from 2028.”,
,
, ” Taiwanese media outlets also reported, citing sources, that TSMC’s ‘A16’ 1.6-nanometer process product, set to enter production in the latter half of 2026, has been reserved for applications such as specialized semiconductor development for OpenAI, a GPT developer, in addition to Apple.”,
