PHOENIX — An Australian technology company that makes tools for building faster computer chips announced Tuesday it is opening its first U.S. location in Tempe, bringing 200 high-skilled jobs to the region.
Syenta, which specializes in the way chips are connected and assembled inside advanced computing systems, said its new 3,500-square-foot facility at Arizona State University’s Research Park will serve as a base for working with American chipmakers and expanding its presence in the U.S. market.
Demand for more powerful chips surges, driven largely by AI
One of the biggest obstacles to building faster AI systems is how the chips are wired together. It is a process known as advanced packaging.
According to the technology company, its technology can achieve wiring densities that were previously possible only in the world’s most sophisticated chip factories…
