Electronics Manufacturing Returning – Further Developments

The government is taking steps to support home-grown industry with incentives, according to this report:

“the Semiconductor Industry Association, the U.S. trade group, says government incentives will accelerate construction. The SIA calculates that a $20-billion incentive program over 10 years would yield 14 new fabs and attract $174 billion in investment versus 9 fabs and $69 billion without the federal incentives. A $50-billion program would yield 19 fabs and attract $279 billion.”

 

Exciting times in the PCBA industry!
