Samsung Foundry: New $17B Fab in the USA by Late 2023
Sheesh. I can't believe all the comments here that say, more or less "It's an expansion of an existing fab".<p>It's most emphatically NOT that!<p>Directly from the article:<p><i>The plans for the new fab are called Project Silicon Silver (PSS), and it will be located adjacent to S2. It will not use any of the existing buildings of S2, but will be a completely new fab constructed from the ground up. It will have its own operations support, central utility building, industrial waste treatment, air separation plans, storage for inert gases, and other constructions.</i><p><i>The only currently-contemplated interconnections between the new facility and the surrounding existing property may be a pedestrian and/or material bridge or walkway constructed between the existing improvements on the site and the new construction</i><p>That couldn't be more clear as far as I'm concerned!!!
