TSMC: Semiconductor production in the US is useless:

-The remarks of the founder of TSMC are ripples-

Taiwan Stacked Circuit Manufacturing (TSMC):

Morris Chang has given a negative view of semiconductor production in the United States.

Negative views are spreading the ripples in the industry.

TSMC:

At the strong request of the US government, TSMC is currently building a new factory in Arizona.

Production in the United States:

Production in the United States is “a waste of time and useless,” he said.

Where is the true meaning of the statement?

TSMC : La production de semi-conducteurs aux États-Unis ne sert à rien :

-Les propos du fondateur de TSMC font des vagues-

Fabrication de circuits empilés à Taiwan (TSMC) :

Morris Chang a donné une vision négative de la production de semi-conducteurs aux États-Unis.

Les opinions négatives propagent les ondulations dans l’industrie.

TSMC :

A la forte demande du gouvernement américain, TSMC construit actuellement une nouvelle usine en Arizona.

Fabrication aux États-Unis :

La production aux États-Unis est “une perte de temps et inutile”, a-t-il déclaré.

Où est le vrai sens de l’énoncé ?

TSMC founder Morris Chang believes US based chip production will be an ‘exercise in futility’

Recent comments from Morris Chang, the founder and former CEO of TSMC,

put a spotlight on many of the issues that the US faces in rebuilding its domestic chip manufacturing industry.

Chang was a guest of the Brookings Institution think tank (via The Register).

Speaking on Tuesday, Chang said

that the US simply doesn’t have the fabrication talent pool needed to expand and succeed.

He said

the US has the best design talent, but its education system can’t deliver the thousands of skilled manufacturing workers that are needed.

There’s also the issue of labour costs.

Labour is cheaper in Asia,
and this was highlighted by Chang when he talked about setting up TSMC’s Oregon-based facility.

He said: “We really expected the costs to be comparable to Taiwan. And that was extremely naive… We still have about a thousand workers in that factory, and that factory, they cost us about 50 percent more than Taiwan costs.”

Chang went on to say,

“Right now you’re talking about spending only tens of billions of dollars of money of subsidy.
Well, it’s not going to be enough. I think it will be a very expensive exercise in futility”.

Geopolitical issues are always bubbling away and a supply side shock

if TSMC were to suddenly cease production would be catastrophic for the global economy.

Chang touched upon the possibility of war between China and Taiwan, saying,

“Frankly, if there is a war in Taiwan Strait, then I think the United States will have more than chips to worry about.”
