This is the best summary I could come up with:

Bloomberg reports that the company is still “examining impact” to its operations, but it “expects to resume production overnight.”

The quake’s epicenter was on Taiwain’s east coast and has prompted tsunami warnings in Japan, China, and the Philippines, according to The New York Times.

Bloomberg reports that the quake also paused manufacturing at United Microelectronics Corp., which makes some chips for AMD, Qualcomm, MediaTek, Realtek, Rockchip, and other companies with a large footprint in smartphones, wireless communications, and cars.

TSMC is currently responsible for the vast majority of high-end chipmaking at this point, with a hand in manufacturing essentially every single current-generation CPU, GPU, and SoC for Nvidia, Apple, and AMD.

Intel is manufacturing its Arc GPUs and major parts of its newest Meteor Lake CPUs at TSMC, even as the company tries to convince third-party fabless chip designers to use its factories.

A disruption at TSMC could affect everything from PCs and workstations to smartphones to AI servers, to say nothing of the universe of smart gadgets that use lower-end, less-glamorous processors and microcontrollers.
