Too many vibrations in NYC to build a fab there

Lots of maintenance, support and cleaning that needs to go on.

RIT in Rochester has a full microelectronics program with functional clean room facilities. Lots of new talent 90 minutes away.

It helps as 90 minutes away is Rochester Institute of Technology which offers degrees in microelectronics engineering (the design and manufacture of computer chips) with a functional clean room manufacturing facility. They can tap into the talent coming out of the school and support internships (a required part of graduation from RIT.

"will"!="does". I see a lot of device types that "will" be supported. What actual physical devices support it now?

Global Foundries is based out of New York and has 2 fabs in state.

They keep saying “Upstate” but I really had to dig to find exactly where they are talking about. Onondaga County, outside Syracuse. Everyone in NYC thinks the rest of NY is Upstate. Syracuse is Central NY to those of us from Western NY, aka Buffalo.

By what metric is it the “largest semiconductor fabrication facility”? Is it the acres? Is it by capacity?

Raleigh, North Carolina in checking in. Drive thru RTP is nothing is sneeze at earlier. I work in the construction world and still many things in the pipeline around here.

Actually it already has quite a few and many more will be available via updates. Google also said Android will support it and Apple will probably have it on IPhone soon enough.

Amen. I just don't understand TSMC and Intel building chip factories out in Arizona, when everyone knows Lake Powell is drying up. It's destined to already fail like by next year.
Hearing about this Micron investment gives me hope America will get back on its feet again. 🙏

Hope they are cleaner pollution wise than the old factories were. IBM, Kodak, etc. did some awful stuff to NY.

Samsung is a juggernaut. They keep expanding in the area. Tesla is not really online yet, but I drive by the facility from time to time. It’s huge and there is a lot of activity there.
Don’t forget Applied Materials, which is huge here. They build the machines that build the semiconductors. Not to mention Apple having thirty buildings or so, IBM, AMD, Oracle, Dell and a ton of other tech giants.
Austin is like San Francisco’s little brother.

That money would give them a 100 year old abandoned warehouse alongside the Hudson in NYC.
