TSMC‘s massive factory in Arizona is reportedly hitting the gas pedal. According to a tech news outlet, the factory is in a “sprint” mode and aiming to kick off trial production for its first production line by mid-April this year. If everything runs smoothly, mass production for Apple chips could even be brought forward to the end of 2024, a significant improvement from the original target of first half 2025.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), hailing from Taiwan, is a giant in the world of technology. Nicknamed the “world’s largest chipmaker,” TSMC isn’t designing the devices you use every day, but rather the brains behind them. They’re a foundry, which means they manufacture the semiconductors, or chips, that power countless electronic devices, from smartphones and laptops to gaming consoles and even cars.
