For the manufacturing of the Apple Silicon chips used in all of its devices, TSMC is Apple’s partner. This applies to both the M-series CPUs used in the Mac and the A-series chips used in devices like the iPhone, iPad and Apple TV. In an earlier report, it was disclosed that TSMC will produce Apple chips at its new Arizona facility. Cook commended President Biden for enacting the CHIPS Act and hailed him for his “leadership” in his prepared comments. The CHIPS Act provides businesses with incentives worth billions of dollars for domestic semiconductor development. Cook continued by saying that Apple intends to cooperate with TSMC going forward as it establishes “new and deeper roots in America.” He praised Apple Silicon’s development during the last several years, claiming that “Apple Silicon is the only area where innovation is making a greater impact.” The Apple CEO then said that TSMC would help the business produce Apple Silicon chips at this new Arizona facility. In 2024, the brand-new TSMC facility in Arizona is anticipated to open. The factory was once expected to concentrate on producing 5nm chips, however, it has subsequently been claimed that it would instead employ a 4nm technology. The corporation will probably continue to employ 4nm and 5nm circuits in some of its devices for several more years, even though this technology lags behind Apple’s rumored ambitions to convert to 3nm in 2023. When you stop and think about it, it’s extraordinary what chip technology can achieve. Now, thanks to the hard work of so many people, these chips can be proudly stamped ‘Made in America.”
