GlobalFoundries加碼160億應對AI晶片熱潮




GlobalFoundries加碼投資至160億美元 聚焦人工智能芯片技術研發

美國芯片製造商GlobalFoundries(納斯達克代碼:GFS)周三宣布,計劃將投資額提升至160億美元,當中額外增加10億美元資本支出,及30億美元用於多項新興芯片技術的研發。

這家總部位於紐約馬爾他市的公司表示,正與特朗普政府合作,將芯片製造技術及相關供應鏈環節帶回美國本土,以強化國內半導體產業鏈。

GlobalFoundries將此擴張歸因於人工智能硬件需求激增,這股趨勢同樣惠及台積電等其他晶片製造商。

GlobalFoundries行政總裁Tim Breen表示:「人工智能革命正推動對GlobalFoundries技術的強勁且持久需求,這些技術是未來數據中心的關鍵。」

此次新增的10億美元資本支出預計將用於紐約及佛蒙特兩地的工廠擴建,這是在公司2024年宣布未來10多年內計劃投資120億美元的基礎上追加的。

不過,GlobalFoundries未透露此次額外資金的具體使用時間表。

公司計劃將30億美元研發費用分配於三大領域:芯片封裝技術、可用於量子計算處理器的矽光子技術,以及應用於電動車及其他電力相關領域的氮化鎵技術。

今年4月,英特爾和台積電曾展示最新的芯片製造及封裝技術,包括將多顆芯片拼接成如同晚餐盤大小的裝置。

評論與啟示:

GlobalFoundries此次大幅提升投資額,明顯反映出半導體產業正迎來新一輪技術革新與市場需求爆發,尤其是人工智能硬件的強勁推動力。該公司不僅著眼於傳統製造擴產,更積極投資於前沿技術如矽光子與氮化鎵,這些技術將成為未來量子計算及電動車產業的關鍵組件。

值得注意的是,GlobalFoundries和美國政府的合作,顯示出美國在全球半導體競爭中,正試圖重建本土供應鏈,減少對外依賴,這對全球科技產業格局或帶來深遠影響。隨著地緣政治因素日益複雜,半導體產業的本土化趨勢或將成為常態。

此外,投資者應密切關注這些新興技術的發展進度及商業化潛力,因為未來的芯片競爭將不再僅限於製程節點,更在於整合創新材料與系統級解決方案。GlobalFoundries的策略布局或許為業界提供一個重要參考,尤其是在全球晶片短缺與技術升級的雙重壓力下,如何平衡產能擴張與技術突破將是決勝關鍵。

The camera is very close, capturing his face sharply - textures of skin, smoke from his lips, and subtle reflections of firelight in his eyes. Behind him, slightly out of focus, a commercial airplane is burning intensely, with huge flames, roaring firestorms, and thick black smoke rising high. The fiery glow casts dramatic orange highlights on his shirt and face, creating deep shadows and a gritty, cinematic mood. Wet runway reflects the blaze, enhancing the dramatic atmosphere.",
