〔編譯魏國金/台北報導〕韓國BusinessKorea報導,根據德州當地媒體與業界消息來源披露,台積電正嚴肅考慮將德州葛雷森郡(Grayson County)謝爾曼市作為新的半導體生產中心,此舉將更接近三星電子在美國的現有基地。如果台積電確實在三星德州奧斯汀與泰勒廠附近的謝爾曼市設新廠,兩家公司在爭取客戶、技術勞工,以及水電等基礎建設的競爭將趨於激烈。
報導說,德州政府公佈的經濟發展文件顯示,一家不具名的企業擬在謝爾曼市投資450億美元,興建兩座晶圓廠,僱用5000名員工,並於2029年投產。儘管相關文件沒有透露該公司名稱,然而台積電董事長魏哲家上月證實,已派出盡職調查團隊,對德州新設廠址進行考察。他說,美國主要客戶尋求額外產能,而台積電也評估亞利桑納州以外的擴廠機會。
台積電看中謝爾曼市的原因之一是台灣在該區域的半導體生態系。台灣最大矽晶圓製造商環球晶已在謝爾曼市有一座大型生產設施,而半導體測試大廠京元電子則正在週邊的沃思堡(Fort Worth)設立其第一家美國廠,以測試輝達晶片。台積電可能受惠於涵蓋晶圓生產與半導體測試的台灣相關供應鏈,以利提升物流與生產效率。
該區域也具備相當規模的半導體產業。德州儀器正在謝爾曼建造4座300mm(12吋)晶圓廠,投資規模高達400億美元。如果台積電在該處設廠,除了亞利桑那州鳳凰城廠外,其在美國將擁有多個生產基地,可更靈活因應美國科技大廠的本土晶片需求。
報導指出,謝爾曼市距三星電子正在建造晶圓廠的泰勒市僅300公里,或3個小時車程。隨著台積電與三星電子在德州擴大產能,兩家科技巨頭對有經驗的工程師與建築工人的延攬預料競爭加劇,他們也將在用電、用水的取得相互競爭,這些資源向來是該州的基礎建設挑戰。雙方在爭取州稅優惠、補貼與其他投資獎勵上也將加劇競爭。
