TAIPEI – Taiwanese chip firm TSMC has raised $3.5 billon in bonds for its new plant in the U.S. state of Arizona, according to a term sheet.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd, a major Apple Inc supplier and the world’s largest contract chip-maker, started construction last year at the Arizona site where it plans to spend $12 billion to build a computer chip factory.
