  1. China is on track to to make 18 wafer fabs this year alone Granted most are going to be producing legacy chips but these chips make up 70 to 80% of the market 11.6 billion… I guess the USA has to try to compete

  4. Then why be dum and put a factory in the USA and hand them you IP That will really make the USA want to protect Taiwan

  5. Yeah real smart idea to put a factory in the USA and hand over your IP That will really make the USA want to sail around the world to Taiwan to protect them As the USA knows they will probably lose an military engagement with China over there

  6. Nice fake narrative I clearly stated most of these plants would be for these Legacy Chips I clearly stated legacy chips make up 70% to 80% of the market Everyone knows legacy chips is the “bread & butter” Where the money is made Why post up fake narratives?

  7. How Close Is China to World Dominance in Legacy Semiconductors? 27-02-2024 | By Paul Whytock * Bread and Butter Technology Obviously, China would like to be a major player when it comes to high-end sophisticated semiconductor devices, but that doesn’t mean they are not interested in the bread-and-butter end of the market, particularly when it comes to legacy products. In fact, they are very interested in the legacy market, and there are some very good reasons why. Legacy devices make up a huge amount of global chip sales. Most chips manufactured today are not advanced chips but legacy chips, and around 71% of devices * China's Aggressive Expansion in the Semiconductor Industry In September 2023, Reuters reported that China was set to launch a new state-backed fund aimed at raising about €43bn to support its chip industry, and according to research analysts, the Rhodium Group, in less than ten years, China is expected to domestically add nearly as much 50–180nm wafer manufacturing capacity as the rest of the World. The views of industry analysts and observers vary, but generally speaking, it’s thought that 22 wafer fabs are being built in the country, and there is an overall plan to create a total of 30 new wafer fabrication plants. Many of these will concentrate on the production of legacy devices. As for market share, industry intelligence gatherers Trendforce believe China’s legacy chip manufacturing base could provide as much as 30% of the global demand for older devices. ElectroPages
