Terafab: Tesla and SpaceX plan chip production from 2028

Tesla and SpaceX are collaborating on the Terafab semiconductor fabrication project in Texas, aiming to produce advanced logic and memory chips with mass production targeted for Q3 2028, starting with an in-house SRAM test chip by mid-2027. The project involves integrating wafer fabrication, packaging, and testing, with industry partners like Intel involved, though the timeline remains highly ambitious given the complexity and equipment lead times in chip manufacturing.
