Tesla CEO Elon Musk said Micron Technology recently supplied Tesla with a “large” amount of memory chips, helping meet the automaker’s demand for a component that has become increasingly scarce. Musk said the deal came on “very reasonable” terms at a time when memory chips are hard to secure and prices remain elevated. He also said that, over the longer term, he is working to bring semiconductor production in-house through a plan called “Terafab,” which is aimed at manufacturing computing and memory chips at unprecedented scale. For now, however, Tesla still relies on Micron for supply. Data cited in the report also showed that neither Tesla nor SpaceX ranks among Micron’s top 10 customers.

Tesla still depends on Micron for now
Over the longer term, Musk is pushing to produce semiconductors internally. He has launched a plan called “Terafab,” aimed at manufacturing computing chips and memory chips at unprecedented scale. For now, though, Tesla still relies on Micron.
Data cited in the report showed that neither Tesla nor SpaceX is among Micron’s top 10 customers.
