Apple to spend $30 billion in Broadcom chips deal that will see Colorado factory expand

Apple has announced a $30 billion investment in a long-term chip supply agreement with Broadcom, set to last until 2031. The deal involves the development and production of radiofrequency chips known as FBAR filters, crucial for wireless communication in Apple devices. As part of the agreement, Broadcom will invest $1.5 billion to expand its factory in Fort Collins, Colorado, aiming to produce at least 15 billion chips. This partnership aligns with Apple’s efforts to source more components domestically, under the U.S. administration led by President Donald Trump. Apple emphasized the importance of U.S.-based manufacturing for maintaining high performance and connectivity standards.
