NVIDIA and TSMC celebrate the birth of the first American-made Blackwell wafer, driving a new industrial revolution in AI.

The new industrial revolution led by artificial intelligence is accelerating, with NVIDIA and TSMC celebrating the completion of the first NVIDIA Blackwell wafer production in Phoenix, Arizona, symbolizing the formal entry of high-end AI chips into mass production, marking a historic milestone for American manufacturing. NVIDIA founder and CEO Jen-Hsun Huang attended the event at TSMC's Arizona semiconductor manufacturing plant, joining TSMC's Vice President of Operations Wang Yonglin to participate in the celebration, where they signed the Blackwell wafer to commemorate this historic moment. Both companies emphasized that this not only represents the return of key technologies in the AI manufacturing chain to the United States but also lays the foundation for a more resilient Supply Chain in the country.

Jen-Hsun Huang stated that this is the first time in modern American history that the most important chips are being produced in the United States, manufactured by the most advanced foundry, TSMC. This is part of President Trump's vision of revitalizing American industrialization, bringing manufacturing back to the United States, not only to create jobs but also to promote the development of the world's most critical manufacturing and technology industries. This move will strengthen America's Supply Chain and transfer artificial intelligence technology to the domestic market, ensuring America's leadership in the era of artificial intelligence.

NVIDIA and TSMC establish the infrastructure that powers the global artificial intelligence factory.

NVIDIA founder and CEO Jen-Hsun Huang visited TSMC's semiconductor manufacturing plant in Phoenix to celebrate the birth of the first NVIDIA Blackwell wafer manufactured in the United States, signifying that Blackwell will achieve mass production. During the ceremonial event, Jen-Hsun Huang signed the Blackwell wafer alongside TSMC's Vice President of Operations Wang Yonglin, commemorating this historic moment. TSMC Arizona's CEO Chuang Ruiping stated that establishing operations in Arizona has led to the delivery of the first U.S.-made NVIDIA Blackwell chip within just a few years, showcasing the breakthrough in technology achieved jointly by TSMC and NVIDIA.

High-end wafers officially Made In USA

The wafers (the fundamental material for semiconductors) will undergo complex processes such as layering, patterning, etching, and cutting, ultimately forming ultra-high-performance high-end AI chips provided by the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture. TSMC's Arizona factory will produce advanced technologies including 2nm, 3nm, and 4nm chips as well as the A16 chip, which are crucial for applications in artificial intelligence, telecommunications, and high-performance computing. This milestone not only demonstrates the long-term cooperation between NVIDIA and TSMC in technology and production but also signifies that world-class AI chip manufacturing is officially taking place on American soil. NVIDIA states that the future application scenarios for these chips will include artificial intelligence, robotics, and digital twins. Jen-Hsun Huang expressed that this is not only the birth of chips but also the beginning of a new era.
