GlobalWafers Awarded Up to $400M in CHIPS Funding for Silicon Wafer Plants in North Texas and Missouri
by David Seeley | Jul 17, 2024
Under new federal funding announced Wednesday by the Commerce Department, Taiwan-based GlobalWafers will build and expand facilities in Sherman and St. Peters, Missouri. In Sherman, the investment would establish "the first 300mm silicon wafer manufacturing facility for advanced chips" in the U.S.—along with the production of 150mm and 200mm silicon cabide epitaxy wafers.
