On February 15, EST, Texas Instruments announced that it would build a second 300mm wafer factory in Lehi, Utah, USA.
Texas Instruments plans to build a second 300 mm semiconductor wafer manufacturing plant in the Caspian Sea, Utah, which is part of the company's $11 billion investment in Utah. It is reported that Texas Instruments will invest about US $3 billion to US $4 billion in the Caspian FAB plant.
According to the report, the new factory will be located next to the existing 300 mm semiconductor wafer factory LFAB of Texas Instruments. After the completion of the second factory, it will merge with the existing factory and eventually operate as a factory. The new wafer factory will create about 800 additional jobs and thousands of indirect jobs for Texas Instruments.
The new plant is expected to start construction in the second half of 2023, and will be put into operation as early as 2026. The cost of the new factory is included in TI's previously announced capital expenditure plan to expand manufacturing capacity, and will form a complementary wafer factory with TI's existing 300 mm wafer factory.
It is reported that Texas Instruments acquired LFAB, a 12-inch wafer factory located in the Caspian Sea in 2021, and put it into production at the end of 2022. It can support 65nm and 45nm production technology to manufacture analog and embedded processing chips, and the products can be applied to renewable energy, electric vehicles, space telescopes and other fields.
