Apple partner Texas Instruments is spending $60B on chip production in the US
tht said:blastdoor said:tht said:These mature 300mm fabs can produce chips at scale, with predictable yields, and without the constant churn of process shrink cycles.300 nanometers, right?
Or are they talking about 300 millimeter diameter wafers?
The processes are 28nm to 130nm.
The "$60b" is going into transitioning TI's fabs from 200 to 300 nm wafers?
Last I recall, TI exited the race to get to the next node at something like 28nm. That they have a lot of old node fabs isn't a surprise. $60b though? That seems like 10x too much to actually do the job. -

Apple stocks plummet, as Trump threatens 104% tariff on China
Hahahahah...I'm laughing now because all the democrats and Kamala warned everyone that this would happen. I move my portfolio to 95% cash over a month ago because I knew stupid is what stupid does. I'm waiting for the economy to implode so I can go buy some super cheap stocks. Meanwhile, I want all of the Trump voters to reflect on their vote. -
Indonesia rejects Apple's $100 million bid to lift the iPhone 16 ban
Just tell the minister, no problem, ban it. Your people will then pay 3 times the price to smugglers. Either way, your people will end up owning it. In the meantime, I will run ads in your country telling your people exactly why they have to pay 3 times the normal price to smugglers selling it in the country.
