I think the USA never left that space. Texas Instruments has six fabs in the USA, oldest built in 1966 and newest in 2022. That said, they've also got one in China and last time I bought from them (directly) the parcel came from Shanghai. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_semiconductor_fabrication_plants > But you want to do that in a place where there is surplus hardware, > readily available supplies, and local expertise. Attempts to start at the > top invariably end in failure too. Intel appear to have a lot of fabs in the USA already "at the top" in terms of nm. But then we keep hearing that they're about to go broke, so maybe that's part of their problem (or it's what Trump's about to change?). -- __ __ #_ < |\| |< _#
