As it announced a new $100 billion commitment to manufacturing in America Monday—for a planned total of $600 billion over the next four years—Apple said a lot of that money will be spent in Sherman, 60 miles north of Dallas. Its partners there include Texas Instruments, GlobalWafers America, and Coherent, which makes the lasers that enable FaceID on iPhones and iPads.
Dallas-based TI said it's working with the Trump administration to expand its U.S. foundational semiconductor manufacturing capacity at its "fab" plants in Richardson and Sherman in North Texas, as well as in Lehi, Utah. Combined, TI’s new manufacturing mega-sites will support more than 60,000 U.S. jobs, the company said.
NVIDIA's Taiwan-based manufacturing partners, including Wistron in North Texas and Foxconn in Houston, will build plants to produce the first NVIDIA AI supercomputers ever to be built entirely in the U.S. The goal: powering a new generation of AI data centers while "hardening supply chain resilience."
Texas Instruments' 300-mm semiconductor wafer fabrication plants to be built in Sherman mark the largest private sector economic development project in Texas history. The potential investment of $30 billion could create up to 3,000 jobs over time, the company says.
