The CHIPS and Science Act and the European Chips Act are both often referred to as "Chips act". Should this be clarified in the articled? Maybe a "Not to be confused with" note should be added? Also, should theCHIPS Act redirect be rethought? All opinions welcome! James Tamim 14:30, 13 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Integra Technologies, the largest outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) operation in the United States, wants to build a major OSAT facility in the Wichita, Kansas. This isn't a done deal yet, because they applied for federal funds from the CHIPS and Science Act act, otherwise it won't happen.
Maybe a list article for companies' investments in new facilities?edit

Since many sources probably don't specify whether the investment is being done BECAUSE OF the CHIPS act, or whether this investment would have been done regardless, I suggest that we move many or maybe most or all of the list of investments to its own list article, otherwise is is a HUGE amount of Original Research to lead the reader to believe that ALL of these projects/expansions are the result of the act. ---Avatar317(talk) 00:41, 10 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

The criticisms by the Mercury News sources from 9 months ago are contradicted by recent reports from May of this year (Reuters' report is cited in Impact) that state that the EPIC Center in Silicon Valley will be expanded. I apologize for the unforced error of not sourcing the statement, but keep in mind that I was trying to add context to the statements, not suppress it. These are not the same things. I will add a source from now on. Jarrod Baniqued (he/him) (talk) 15:39, 16 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Jarrod Baniqued: If I remember correctly, you added something to that effect and I reverted your addition because your addition failed to make the distinction between RESEARCH (which the EPIC Center is, if we are talking about the same thing) and MANUFACTURING, which is what the MercNews says will not be built in California. If you add to this section, please be sure to understand and make clear to the reader that these are NOT the same thing. (The CHIPS act attempts to encourage both). ---Avatar317(talk) 20:25, 16 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
To further my point, many electronics products (Apple comes to mind) now say something along the lines of: "Engineered/designed in California, built/assembled/manufactured in China." That is the distinction; no FABS are expected to be built in CA, and that is probably a very widely held belief, not just whoever the MercNews interviewed. ---Avatar317(talk) 20:31, 16 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Avatar317 i hope in time you reconsider the stance you are taking on your percieved differences for manufacturing versus Desigining/Engineering.
Auto companies, chip manufacturers especially, especially hardware and software companys like Google, Apple, etc. It's interesting to read how distinct some cultures try to isolate the two into distinct separate fields when in America - most everything is fabless.
I cant give you a source because that would be unprofessional and probably illegal in countries like the USA..but you dont have to look hard at for the specifications OTHER companies engineered the product to be built with. Licensing and contracts dictate the proper terminology, not you or i. Polypsychosis (talk) 18:40, 14 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
