I-TSMC yase-Taiwan noma i-Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd. imemezele ngoLwesibili ukuthi izophinda iphindwe kathathu ukutshala kwayo embonini yase-Arizona e-US ifinyelele ku-$40 billion. UMongameli wase-US u-Joe Biden, ovakashele isikhungo se-TSMC e-Arizona, ushayele ihlombe lo msebenzi njengoba uvela njengomunye wotshalomali olukhulukazi lwangaphandle emlandweni wase-US.
I-TSMC izobe iphinda kathathu ukutshalwa kwezimali kwayo okuhlelile embonini yase-Arizona e-US ifinyelele inani elingamaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingama-40. Bazophinde bavule iyunithi yesibili yokwenziwa ngo-2026. Ikhredithi Yesithombe: AFP
“Ukukhiqiza kwaseMelika kubuyile, bakwethu,” kusho uBiden enkulumweni yakhe engemuva kwefekthri entsha ehlotshiswe ngefulegi laseMelika kanye nesibhengezo esikhulu esifundeka ngokuthi “A Future Made in America Phoenix, AZ.”
Ukutshalwa kwezimali okwandisiwe kuwukuwina okukhulu kwe-Biden ngemuva kokuthi izinkinga ze-supply chain ziphazamise umnotho wase-US ekuqaleni kukamongameli wakhe. I-TSMC ihlela nokuvula isikhungo sesibili, esinye isikhungo sokukhiqiza esizokhiqiza ama-nanometer angu-3 ekupheleni kuka-2026.
UMark Liu, usihlalo we-TSMC ulinganisela ukuba nemali engenayo yonyaka engama-dollar ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyi-10 lapho kuvulwa izimboni ezimbili zokwenziwa kwama-chip, wengeza ngokuthi amakhasimende azoba nokuthengiswa konyaka kwezigidigidi ezingama-40 zamaRandi emikhiqizweni esebenzisa ama-chips enziwe lapho.
Amakhasimende amathathu amakhulu e-TSMC, i-Apple Inc, i-NVIDIA Corp ne-AMD Inc, athe alindele ukuthola iningi lama-chips awo azayo ezitshalweni zaseMelika ze-TSMC.
Khonamanjalo, u-Apple uthe ukuya phambili, bazosebenzisa kuphela ama-chips enziwe esitshalweni saseMelika se-TSMC. Ekhuluma kulo mcimbi, i-CEO yakwa-Apple u-Tim Cook uthe, “Sisebenzisana ne-TSMC ukwenza ama-chips asiza ukuthuthukisa imikhiqizo yethu emhlabeni wonke. Futhi sibheke ngabomvu ekwandiseni lo msebenzi eminyakeni ezayo njengoba i-TSMC yakha izimpande ezintsha nezijulile eMelika. ”
I-Biden ifune ukukhulisa ukukhiqizwa kwe-semiconductor ngemuva kokuthi ubhubhane ludale izinkinga zokuhlinzekwa kwempahla okuholele ekushodeleni kwama-chips ezimoto nezinye izinto eziningi. .
Isikhundla esiphezulu sase-Taiwan njengomenzi wama-chips asetshenziswa kwezobuchwepheshe kusukela komakhalekhukhwini nezimoto kuya ezinhlotsheni zezindiza zempi kubangele ukukhathazeka ngokuthembela ngokweqile kulesi siqhingi, ikakhulukazi njengoba i-China inyusa ingcindezi yezempi ukuze ifune ubukhosi bayo.
