The #US and #Taiwan have reached a #tradeagreement where Taiwanese companies will invest $250 billion in U.S. #chipmaking. In return, the U.S. will limit #tariffs on Taiwan. This agreement aims to incentivise Taiwanese companies like #TSMC to expand their U.S. operations and reduce reliance on Taiwanese production. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/01/15/us-taiwan-chips-deal-china.html?eicker.news #tech #media #news

The Great #American #Microchip Mobilization
Under Donald Trump and Joe Biden alike, the #US has been determined to “reshore” #chipmaking. Now money and colossal infrastructure are flowing to a vast Intel site in Ohio—just as the company may be falling apart.

The recent #TechnologyQuarterly in #TheEconomist on the effect of the demands of #AI on #ChipMaking was particularly good, even by its own standards (https://www.economist.com/technology-quarterly/2024/09/16/ai-has-returned-chipmaking-to-the-heart-of-computer-technology). 👌🏽

They are able to somehow explain complex topics without trivializing things.

#Hardware #CPU #GPU

#Microchips are getting so small that the wavelength of photons is impacting the #lithography. To fix this #Intel is using ultraviolet light which has a very small wavelength. But here's the crazy part; to get that UV light; they have to drop a tiny glob of molten tin into a chamber and then hit it with powerful lasers which makes it explode in a ball of plasma which generates the UV light

I know Intel is going through a rough spot, but I can't help but simp for this

> In April, the #Biden administration announced #TSMC would receive $6.6 billion in grants through the federal #ChipsAndScienceAct, as well as up to $5 billion in loans to support its first major #US #chipmaking hub. TSMC’s two chipmaking factories in Arizona are expected to begin production in 2025 and 2028

A U.S. official was headed to Japan after meeting with the Dutch government to press allies to further crack down on China's ability to produce cutting-edge semiconductors, a person familiar with the matter said. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/06/19/world/politics/us-netherlands-japan-chipmaking-china/ #worldnews #politics #us #netherlands #china #semiconductors #asml #smic #nvidia #huawei #chipmaking #chips

> The first Russian photolithography tool, capable of producing chips with a 350 nm process technology or thicker, has been built in Russia and is undergoing testing in Zelenograd. This mature technology is currently used for some automotive and power chips, though it could be used for military equipment too. We estimate that the new piece of equipment is about 30 years behind the industry.

#China's #chipmaking tool imports climb to $40 billion as the country chases #semiconductor manufacturing self-sufficiency. Up 14% from last year despite a slowing economy. #US has imposed sanctions in an attempt to stop China from importing particularly cutting-edge tools, but Chinese #foundries have found ways to buy equipment that they normally wouldn't be allowed to.
