After TSMC (TSMC) announced a new second factory in the United States in Arizona, Apple CEO Tim Cook came out in support late Tuesday saying that the company will make chips in the United States for the first time in nearly a decade.
In his latest remarks, Cook said Apple will expand its cooperation with TSMC when the company's U.S. plant opens in 2024, when the majority of the company's self-developed chips used in its devices will be produced at the Phoenix plant. For now, TSMC is already producing chips for Apple. "Now, thanks to the hard work of so many people, these chips can proudly be labeled 'Made in America.' This is an extremely important moment." He said. Generally, companies such as Apple and Nvidia design their own chips, but outsource manufacturing to companies such as TSMC and Samsung Foundry (Samsung Foundry). TSMC is the world's largest foundry, with more than half of the global market share. The company produces the most advanced processors, including chips used in the latest iPhones, iPads and Mac computers. As many of you know, we partner with TSMC to make the chips that power our products around the world," Cook said. We look forward to expanding this work in the coming years as TSMC establishes new and deeper roots in the United States." "Apple used to have to buy all their advanced chips from overseas, now they're bringing more of the supply chain back home. This could be a game changer." He added. The Arizona plant will be partially subsidized by the U.S. government. Earlier this year, Biden signed the Chip and Science Act, which includes billions of dollars in incentives for companies that build chip manufacturing capacity on U.S. soil. TSMC said Tuesday it will invest $40 billion in two plants in Arizona. The first plant in Phoenix is expected to produce chips in 2024. The second plant will open in 2026, according to the Biden administration.
