Apple<\/a> said it’s expanding its partnership with chipmaker Broadcom<\/a> in a multi-year deal expected to exceed $30 billion, marking the iPhone maker’s largest U.S. manufacturing commitment to date.<\/p>\n The agreement, announced by Apple on Wednesday, will lead to the production of more than 15 billion U.S.-made chips and includes a $1.5 billion expansion of Broadcom’s facility in Fort Collins, Colorado. Apple didn’t provide a timeline for when the new capacity will come online.<\/p>\n Broadcom has long supplied Apple with connectivity components, but the new agreement deepens that relationship around U.S.-made custom silicon. Apple said Broadcom will make wireless components used to help devices connect to cellular, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth networks.<\/p>\n Broadcom disclosed in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission<\/a> on Monday that it had entered into new long-term agreements with Apple to develop and supply “custom ASIC silicon products” for multiple generations of Apple products through 2031. ASICs are application-specific integrated circuits and are increasingly being used for artificial intelligence workloads.<\/p>\n For Tim Cook<\/a>, Apple’s outgoing CEO, the agreement marks his latest push to invest in American manufacturing, a major point of emphasis for the Trump administration. It’s the biggest piece of his company’s $600 billion, four-year U.S. investment plan<\/a>, announced in 2025, and marks the largest commitment to date under its American Manufacturing Program, or AMP, launched to expand domestic production across its supply chain.<\/p>\n “Apple has been working with the Administration and businesses across the U.S. to help create an end-to-end silicon supply chain in America, and today’s announcement advances those efforts,” Apple said in the release.<\/p>\n Cook said the components built in Fort Collins are “essential” to the performance and connectivity Apple customers expect, and he thanked President Donald Trump<\/a> and his administration for supporting the project.<\/p>\n Broadcom CEO Hock Tan said Apple’s commitment will help the chipmaker expand its manufacturing footprint in Fort Collins.<\/p>\n WATCH: Apple faces AI memory crunch with upcoming iPhone lineup<\/a><\/p>\n
