GlobalFoundries and TSMC agree on U.S. silicon interposer supply deal
GlobalFoundries (Nasdaq: GFS) announced a manufacturing agreement with TSMC to produce silicon interposers at its Malta, New York facility, supporting TSMC's CoWoS advanced packaging ecosystem for high-performance computing and AI systems.
Under the five-year agreement, GlobalFoundries will provide manufacturing services to TSMC and expand fabrication capacity at its Malta site. The company said it expects to establish what it described as the first U.S.-based source of silicon interposers supporting advanced packaging technologies, including embedded deep trench capacitor components.
