Huawei plans to build chip manufacturing plants

Huawei is planning to build a chip manufacturing plant in Shanghai that does not use American technology. Those who know the project know that Huawei has no experience in manufacturing chips and that the plant will be operated by its partner, the Shanghai IC R&D Center.

According to people familiar with the matter, the plant is expected to start from the low-end 45nm. Huawei plans to manufacture 28-nanometer chips for Internet of Things equipment by the end of 2021, and 20-nanometer chips for 5G telecommunications equipment by the end of 2022.
