TSMC has, for the very first time, made public an internal operations video from its Fab 21 plant located in Arizona, the United States. This video offers a detailed glimpse into the production process that leverages N4/N5 advanced process technologies.

Within the video, one can observe hundreds of pieces of high - tech equipment functioning in a well - organized manner. Among them, ASML's Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines stand out prominently. These machines play a crucial role in the production of advanced AI chips, like NVIDIA's Blackwell B300.

In the context of the manufacturing environment with high production volumes, the factory utilizes an automated material handling system. This system is essential for providing reliable logistical support, ensuring the smooth flow of materials throughout the production process.

The first phase of the Fab 21 facility is already up and running. It is primarily engaged in manufacturing chips for well - known U.S. companies, including Apple, AMD, and NVIDIA. Moreover, TSMC has ambitious plans to expedite the construction of the second phase. Once completed, this phase will have the capability to produce chips in the N3 and N2 series, further enhancing TSMC's technological prowess and production capacity.
