➀ Amkor and TSMC announce a MoU to expand partnership; ➁ Collaboration focuses on advanced packaging and test capabilities; ➂ Aim to enhance Arizona's semiconductor ecosystem.

➀ TSMC and Amkor have signed a MoU to provide advanced packaging and testing services in Arizona to expand the local semiconductor ecosystem; ➁ TSMC will adopt Amkor's turnkey advanced packaging and testing services at its new facility in Peoria, Arizona, to support its customers, particularly those with advanced wafer fabrication plants in Phoenix; ➂ The partnership aims to shorten the overall product production cycle by closely collaborating between TSMC's front-end wafer manufacturing factory in Arizona and Amkor's nearby back-end packaging and testing factory; ➃ Both companies will decide on the packaging technology to meet the capacity demand of their common customers, such as TSMC's InFO and CoWoS; ➄ The agreement highlights the commitment of both companies to support customers' regional flexibility requirements in front-end and back-end manufacturing, while fostering the local semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem.

➀ Amkor, a Korean OSAT specialist, has received $400 million under the US Chips Act and a loan of up to $200 million to build a $2 billion test and packaging plant in Peoria, Arizona. ➁ The US Department of Commerce highlights the importance of Amkor's 2.5D technology for AI and high-performance computing applications. ➂ The funding aims to enhance supply chain security, create jobs, and position the US as a leader in innovation and competition.

❶ Amkor Technology has secured a preliminary agreement with the U.S. government for $600 million in funding to build an advanced chip packaging facility in Peoria, Arizona. ❷ The $2 billion facility, the largest of its kind in the U.S., will support automotive, high-performance computing, and mobile applications. ❸ The project is expected to create around 2,000 jobs and is part of the broader effort to strengthen the domestic semiconductor supply chain.

1. Infineon and Amkor have committed to promoting decarbonisation and sustainability across their supply chains. 2. The companies will work with common suppliers to develop and implement decarbonisation strategies through workshops, meetings, and sharing best practices. 3. The goal is to support suppliers in setting science-based emissions reduction targets aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative.
