AMD Chief Executive Officer Lisa Su said the company will increase the size of its previously announced Taiwan supply-chain investment plan, according to a report by Taiwan’s Economic Daily News cited by BlockBeats on Oct. 6. Su said the original $10 billion plan, equivalent to about NT$317.6 billion, remains on schedule, but AMD has decided to lift the amount as market demand continues to surge.
The report said Su spent the day meeting major manufacturing and brand partners in Taiwan, including Hon Hai, Quanta, Asus and Acer, before traveling to Hsinchu for a meeting with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC). She said close coordination with key suppliers and partners remains critical for AMD.
On chip supply, Su said this is an exciting period across the computing sector. AMD has already expanded production significantly this year in response to broad market demand, she said, but demand is still running ahead of supply. The company is now working with TSMC, backend packaging and testing providers, and substrate suppliers to accelerate capacity increases.
