TSMC plans new factories in the US and discusses cooperation with Elon Musk

TSMC is exploring a broader US manufacturing expansion beyond Arizona and Texas, with CEO C.C.

Wei confirming ongoing discussions with Elon Musk regarding Terafab technology.

The company maintains that direct operational control and strict cleanroom standards are non-negotiable requirements for future facilities.


Discussions about collaboration with Elon Musk

As part of its expansion plans, TSMC is in negotiations with Elon Musk about using a manufacturing technology called Terafab.

TSMC's terms

CC Wei clarified that, if there is an agreement, TSMC sets an unbreakable condition: the management of the production facility must remain exclusively under the control of the company itself.

At the same time, TSMC emphasizes that the strict cleanliness rules required in chip production areas are non-negotiable, as they are a prerequisite for the operation of its facilities.
