This is not the chipmaker’s only nuance: Plans to create advanced 3nm chips may also change.
While TSMC first faced delays and security issues in its first factory, now the second factory, which is expected to raise the bar in modern technology, has been postponed again. The company is considering moving to larger processes at a second facility, which could leave it far behind its Taiwanese peers in the latest chip race.
In hinting at a possible change, TSMC points to the US government’s decision and the delay in CHIPS Act funding. This double whammy could raise questions about the future of the Arizona plant and its ability to compete with its Taiwanese counterparts.
