Just as much as before. It’s the actual wafers that are produced in AZ, then they get shipped to wherever assembly and test are done.
It has been very common in semiconductor that chips (the packaged chip that is) travel around the world before they get into consumers hands, I don’t see that changing any time soon.
I always hear this as the main argument for everything being in Shenzhen for example because all the industry is right there.
Maybe I’m vastly misunderstanding how this works. I’m really just asking what happens to the chips after they’re made in AZ.
You said wherever assembly happens but that is presumably China so it sounds like they are exporting at least the chips and then re-importing them as finished product.
If that’s a correct understanding I’m not sure how much that really helps until assembly moves too.
