The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company's (TSMC) plans to build a chip fabrication facility in China is at the receiving end of opposition from critics. They allege that the company should stop building the facility due to its compliance with the U.S. government. The company is building a chip manufacturing facility in China's Nanjing province, with the plant set to churn out semiconductors built on the mature 28nm process node. This is expected to aid TSMC in gaining market share for mature processes, which chipmakers across the globe currently underserve.
