Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co<\/a> Ltd, a major supplier to Apple Inc, announced on Friday it will build a $12 billion chip factory<\/a> in Arizona, in what the company called a \"strong partnership\" with the U.S. government.

The move by the world's biggest contract manufacturer of computer chips coincides with an effort by the administration of President Donald Trump to bring more foreign manufacturing to the United States.

The plant will create as many as 1,600 jobs and produce the most sophisticated 5 nanometer chips,
TSMC<\/a> said in a statement. The Taiwan company also has an older chip facility in Washington state.

TSMC said in a statement that construction on the facility would begin in 2021 and that it would be able to process up to 20,000 silicon wafers per month. Each wafer can contain thousands of individual chips.

\"This project is of critical, strategic importance to a vibrant and competitive U.S.
semiconductor<\/a> ecosystem<\/a> that enables leading U.S. companies to fabricate their cutting-edge semiconductor products within the United States...,\" TSMC said, calling it a \"strong partnership with the U.S. administration\".

Shares of TSMC, the world's most valuable semiconductor company with a market capitalisation of $255 billion that exceeds Intel Corp's, rose more than 1.5% on Friday morning, outperforming a 0.8% gain in the main Taiwan stock market.

The Wall Street Journal first reported the latest details of TSMC's plans.

The move comes after the Commerce Department drafted a rule that, if implemented, could severely restrict sales of chips by TSMC to blacklisted Chinese telecoms equipment maker Huawei, a key customer. One of the two sources, a Commerce Department official, said the decision to locate the plant in the United States generates \"good will\" at the department.

TSMC makes the chips that power Apple's iPhones, and the iPhone maker works closely with the chip manufacturer to become the first to take advantage of new advances in its chip-making processes.

Semiconductors<\/a> play a key role in both consumer electronics and defense equipment. The vast majority of the most advanced chips are made in Asia, which has caused concern among U.S. officials as a strategic rivalry with China deepens over the origins of the deadly coronavirus<\/a>.

While Intel has major manufacturing operations in the United States, it supplies only its own chips rather than making them for outside customers.

The Trump administration has been in talks with both Intel and TSMC to build a plant in the United States. One of the people said Intel would have been a problematic choice, because its customers would see Intel as both a supplier and a rival.

Last week, TSMC said it had been considering the United States as a location for a new factory but there was \"no concrete plan yet.\"

One of the sources said Commerce had spearheaded talks with TSMC over the potential plant over around two years.

Last week, Intel said it was in discussions with the Department of Defense about improving domestic sources for microelectronics and related technology.

The Department had been working with companies to bolster the supply chain for microprocessors, a person familiar with the matter said. The TSMC announcement is not expected to derail the Pentagon's efforts, despite the Commerce Department's working on the TSMC deal independently, the person said.

Apple and Intel declined to comment.

台湾半导体制造公司有限公司,苹果(aapl . o:行情)的一个主要供应商,上周五宣布,将建立一个120亿美元芯片工厂在亚利桑那州,在所谓的公司与美国政府的“强有力的伙伴关系”。

这家世界最大的电脑芯片恰逢政府主席唐纳德·特朗普为美国带来更多的外国制造。

工厂将创造多达1600个就业岗位和生产最先进的5纳米芯片,台积电在一份声明中说。台湾公司也有一个年长的芯片设备在华盛顿州。

台积电在一份声明中表示,设施建设将在2021年开始,这个过程能够达到每月20000硅片。每个晶片可以包含成千上万的单个芯片。

“这个项目是重要的,一个充满活力和竞争力的美国战略重要性半导体 生态系统领先,使美国公司制造尖端半导体产品在美国…”,称其为“台积电表示,与美国政府强有力的伙伴关系”。

台积电,世界上最有价值的半导体公司市值为2550亿美元,超过了英特尔(intc . o:行情),周五早上上涨逾1.5%,表现优于主台湾股市上涨0.8%。

《华尔街日报》首次报道最新的台积电的计划的细节。

此前商务部起草了一个规则,如果实现,可能严重限制由台积电列入黑名单的芯片销售中国电信设备制造商华为,一个关键客户。两个来源之一,商务部官员说,找到工厂的决定在美国产生“善意”部门。

台积电使芯片的苹果的iPhone, iPhone制造商紧密合作和芯片制造商成为第一个利用其芯片制造流程方面的新进展。

半导体扮演一个关键的角色在消费电子和防御设备。绝大多数的最先进的芯片是在亚洲生产,已引起了美国官员的忧虑与中国作为一个战略竞争加剧了致命的起源冠状病毒

虽然英特尔主要制造业务在美国,它只供应自己的芯片,而不是使他们为外部客户。

特朗普政府一直在与英特尔和台积电在美国建立一个工厂。一位知情人士表示,英特尔将是一个问题的选择,因为它的客户会看到英特尔作为供应商和竞争对手。

上周,台积电表示,它已考虑美国作为一家新工厂的位置,但还没有具体的计划。”

一名消息人士表示,商务部牵头与台积电在潜在的植物在大约两年。

英特尔上周表示,在与美国国防部讨论改善国内微电子及相关技术。

部门已经与公司合作,支持供应链的微处理器,一个知情人士说。台积电的声明预计不会破坏五角大楼的努力,尽管美国商务部在台积电工作的独立协议,这位人士说。

苹果公司和英特尔拒绝置评。
