Along with its Wednesday announcement, Apple (AAPL) said, “Packaging is the final critical step in manufacturing silicon chips. Apple is investing in Amkor’s (AMKR) new advanced chip packaging and test facility in Arizona, and will be its first and largest customer. This will accelerate the development of packaging capabilities in America, meaningfully strengthening the semiconductor supply chain in the U.S. This facility will package and test Apple silicon manufactured at the nearby TSMC fab, and create chips used in iPhone devices shipped around the world.”
