TSMC Starts Mass Production of 4nm Chips in the US, a Major Milestone in US Semiconductor Manufacturing

Phoenix, Arizona – Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), the world's largest contract chipmaker, has commenced mass production of its advanced 4-nanometer chips at its new fabrication plant in Arizona. This significant development marks a pivotal moment in the U.S.'s efforts to bolster its domestic semiconductor industry.

U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo announced the news, highlighting that the production of cutting-edge 4nm chips on American soil is unprecedented. She emphasized that the chips being produced in Arizona meet the same high standards of yield and quality as those manufactured in Taiwan.

"This is a major accomplishment, something that has never been done before and that many people thought was impossible," Raimondo said. "It is a milestone in the Biden administration's efforts to strengthen the semiconductor supply chain."

The Biden administration has been actively incentivizing global chipmakers to establish manufacturing facilities in the United States through substantial government subsidies. Last year, the administration approved a $66 billion incentive package for TSMC's Arizona facility.

TSMC's investment in the United States is part of a broader strategy to diversify its manufacturing footprint and reduce its reliance on a single geographic region. The company has pledged to invest $65 billion in Arizona by 2030, building a total of three fabs capable of producing 2-nanometer chips.

The establishment of TSMC's advanced manufacturing facility in the United States is expected to have far-reaching implications for the global semiconductor industry and U.S. national security. By bringing chip production closer to home, the United States aims to reduce its vulnerability to supply chain disruptions and strengthen its technological leadership.
