A Taiwanese company that tests computer chips and supplies Nvidia is planning a major financial commitment to the United States, announcing Friday it intends to invest as much as $1.4 billion to build a new American facility.<\/p>

King Yuan Electronics, known as KYEC, said the planned investment is designed to support the company’s growth and reinforce its role in the worldwide supply chain for semiconductors.<\/p>

The announcement comes as Taiwanese semiconductor and electronics manufacturers have increasingly been setting up operations in the United States, a trend that accelerated following TSMC’s multibillion-dollar expansion into Arizona. Foxconn and Wistron are among the Taiwanese companies currently building artificial intelligence server manufacturing capacity in Texas for Nvidia.<\/p>

King Yuan Electronics did not reveal which clients the new American facility would serve, nor did the company disclose where the plant would be located or when construction might begin.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
