Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan said Tuesday that the chipmaker will “work closely’ with Elon Musk to support the billionaire entrepreneur's Terafab project.
Intel and Elon Musk are collaborating on Terafab, a massive chip fabrication project for SpaceX and Tesla.
KEY POINTS
- No SEC filings have been made, suggesting the Intel-Terafab partnership is not yet formalized.
- Intel is expected to provide advanced chip packaging initially, avoiding direct competition with TSMC.
- Intel will likely own the intellectual property for Terafab's manufacturing processes, which Musk must license.
- Worker shortages in Texas could delay Terafab's construction despite ongoing work on a large chip design lab.
