Nvidia Supplier TSMC Faces Regulatory Hurdles In Manufacturing 2-Nanometer Chips Abroad, Minister Says 'Core Technology Will Stay In Taiwan'
Nvidia Supplier TSMC Faces Regulatory Hurdles In Manufacturing 2-Nanometer Chips Abroad, Minister Says 'Core Technology Will Stay In Taiwan'
"Although TSMC plans to make 2-nanometer chips [abroad] in the future, its core technology will stay in Taiwan," Kuo said. Taiwan Semiconductor Mfg. Co. Ltd. (NYSE:TSM) is unable to manufacture 2-nanometer chips overseas due to Taiwan's technology protection regulations, as stated by the Minister of Economic Affairs, JW Kuo.
台湾半导体制造厂Co.经济事务部长郭建华表示，由于台湾的技术保护法规，有限公司（纽约证券交易所代码：TSM）无法在海外生产2纳米芯片。
What Happened: A report on Thursday raised concerns that TSMC may be forced to accelerate the production of advanced 2-nanometer chips at its Arizona factories following Donald Trump's re-election as U.S. president, according to the Taipei Times.
发生了什么：据《台北时报》报道，周四的一份报告引发了人们的担忧，即唐纳德·特朗普再次当选美国总统后，台积电可能被迫加快其亚利桑那州工厂生产先进的2纳米芯片。
Kuo clarified that Taiwan's laws, designed to protect its technologies, currently prohibit TSMC from manufacturing 2-nanometer chips abroad.
郭澄清说，旨在保护其技术的台湾法律目前禁止台积电在国外制造2纳米芯片。
"Although TSMC plans to make 2-nanometer chips [abroad] in the future, its core technology will stay in Taiwan," Kuo said.
郭说：“尽管台积电计划将来（国外）生产2纳米芯片，但其核心技术将留在台湾。”
Taiwanese law prevents local chipmakers from producing chips abroad that are more advanced than those produced domestically.
台湾法律禁止当地芯片制造商在国外生产比国内生产的更先进的芯片。
Why It Matters: Despite the regulatory restrictions, TSMC's U.S. expansion plans remain unaffected by Trump's re-election, as confirmed by the company earlier this week.
为何重要：尽管有监管限制，但台积电的美国扩张计划仍未受到特朗普连任的影响，该公司本周早些时候证实。
The chipmaker, a major supplier to tech giants like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA), is proceeding with its $65 billion investment in advanced semiconductor production facilities in Arizona.
这家芯片制造商是苹果公司（纳斯达克股票代码：AAPL）和英伟达公司（纳斯达克股票代码：NVDA）等科技巨头的主要供应商，正在继续对亚利桑那州的先进半导体生产设施进行650亿美元的投资。
However, the U.S. has recently asked TSMC to halt shipments of chips used in AI applications to customers from China, following the discovery of one of its chips in a Huawei AI processor. This move comes amid Trump's proposed 60% tariffs, which could significantly impact China's economy.
但是，在华为人工智能处理器中发现台积电的一款芯片后，美国最近要求台积电停止向中国客户运送用于人工智能应用的芯片。此举是在特朗普提议征收60％的关税之际采取的，这可能会对中国经济产生重大影响。
Despite these challenges, TSMC's shares have continued to climb, with the company's October sales showing the slowest growth since February.
尽管面临这些挑战，台积电的股价仍在继续攀升，该公司10月份的销售额出现了自2月份以来最慢的增长。
