Texas Instruments (TI), one of the world’s leading semiconductor manufacturers, has unveiled plans for a massive $60 billion investment aimed at significantly expanding its production capacity across the United States. The move marks a historic commitment to boosting domestic chip manufacturing amid rising global competition.
As part of the plan, TI will build and expand seven semiconductor fabrication facilities across Texas and Utah, with the goal of creating up to 60,000 new jobs. The company describes the initiative as “the largest investment in foundational semiconductor manufacturing in U.S. history.”
Back in August 2024, TI had hinted at allocating up to $40 billion for its operations in Texas and around $21 billion for Utah and other facilities. This latest announcement confirms the company’s commitment to scaling its infrastructure across multiple regions.
Boosting Domestic Production Amid Global Pressure
This bold investment also reflects Texas Instruments’ strategy to strengthen local production in response to growing competition from Chinese analog chip manufacturers. While the company has yet to provide a detailed timeline for the full deployment, the plan includes both new facility construction and expansion of existing plants.
Of the $60 billion total, $46 billion will be invested in Texas, while roughly $15 billion is earmarked for Utah-based projects. The funding also includes capital already allocated to under-construction or capacity-enhancing projects.
TI Chips Power Daily Life and Innovation
Texas Instruments is a global player known for its innovations in analog chips, embedded processors, and devices like graphing calculators. Its semiconductors are essential to a wide range of industries—from smartphones and electric vehicles to medical equipment and aerospace systems.
The company serves a roster of major clients including Apple, SpaceX, and Ford, making this investment a significant move not only for TI, but also for the broader U.S. technology and manufacturing ecosystem.
