The world's largest contract foundry, TSMC, is set to construct three semiconductor factories in Arizona, with initial production of 4nm chips in early 2024 and plans to produce 2nm chips by the end of the decade. The US government has provided $6.6 billion in funding for these facilities. TSMC aims to continue advancements in semiconductor technology, possibly reaching 1nm nodes by 2030.
TSMC is expected to build three fabs in Arizona and the world's largest contract foundry has received $6.6 billion in funding from the U.S. to help set up these factories. The first facility will produce 4nm chips starting early next year. By the time the last of TSMC 's three U.S. fabs go on line at the end of this decade, it will be building 2nm chips according to the U.S. Commerce Department. As great as that sounds, by 2030 TSMC could be building 1nm semiconductors in Taiwan.
Consider that the A13 Bionic powering the iPhone 11 line was built using TSMC's 7nm node and featured 8.5 billion transistors. Compare that with the A17 Pro which powers theTSMC is supposed to start mass production of 2nm chips in Taiwan next year and the 2026 iPhone 18 series will be the first iPhone models to be equipped with 2nm silicon.
