It’s not a conventional factory but an integrated approach combining design, manufacturing, advanced packaging, and testing under one umbrella. However, it’s important to separate ambition from reality.
Fourteen months later, Intel is at an all-time high, its foundry has anchor customers including Apple and Musk’s Terafab, and it is going to Computex with a product in every category for the first time in a decade. The turnaround is real, but it is also incomplete: the foundry loses 2.4 billion dollars per quarter, external revenue is 174 million dollars against TSMC’s 20 billion, and 90 per cent of the desktop chip Intel is previewing at Computex will be manufactured by the competitor it is try
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said that the EV company is planning to use Intel’s 14A chip manufacturing process at its $20 billion ‘TeraFab’ project in Austin, Texas.
The outreach has already had some impact on markets, with Tokyo Electron (TOELY) shares rising 5.3% in Tokyo and other equipment makers such as Applied Materials and Lam Research seeing gains of more than 2% in pre-market trading.

Intel said on Tuesday it will join Elon Musk's Terafab AI chip complex project with SpaceX and Tesla to make processors powering the tech billionaire's robotics and data center ambitions.
“Our ability to design, fabricate, and package ultra-high-performance chips at scale will help accelerate Terafab’s aim to produce 1 TW/year of compute to power future advances in AI and robotics,” says Tan, adding “Terafab represents a step change in how silicon logic, memory and packaging will get built in the future.” · The deal complements Elon Musk’s foundry deal with Samsung for $16.5 billion worth of output from Samsung’s Taylor fab.
Nvidia head Jensen Huang, to try to convince them to get into business with Intel, the WSJ report said. Last month, Musk said Tesla will use Intel's next-generation 14A manufacturing process to make chips at its Terafab project, an ...
Tesla plans to use advanced semiconductor manufacturing technology from Intel in its ambitious Terafab project, a development that could mark a significant milestone in Intel's efforts to re-establish itself as a leading global chip foundry.
Investing.com-- Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk said on Wednesday that the Terafab joint venture plans to use Intel’s advanced 14A manufacturing process to make semiconductors.
Tesla is not actually going to build its own chip fab. Intel is going to do it for them. That’s the real takeaway from Intel’s announcement today that it is joining the “Terafab” project alongside Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI — the $25 billion Austin chip factory Elon Musk unveiled with great fanfare last month.
Musk challenged doubters by pointing out Tesla and SpaceX defied critics who predicted electric cars and reusable rockets would not be feasible or economical.
Some of the data centers might be in space — at least by 2035, if things go according to plan. xAI will be making its own chips at the Terafab, which will take away some but not all of Nvidia’s pricing power.
