TDK's First U.S. Sensor Production
Among the new partners, TDK—a long-time Apple supplier—will begin manufacturing sensors in the U.S. for the first time. These sensors, including technology for iPhone camera stabilization, will be used in devices sold globally and are expected to increase the volume of chips sourced from U.S. silicon supply chains.
