Apple has entered a multiyear agreement with Broadcom to design and produce custom silicon components and advanced wireless-connectivity technology in the United States. Apple expects its commitment to exceed $30 billion and lead to production of more than 15 billion chips.

Broadcom will expand and modernize its Fort Collins, Colorado, manufacturing facilities through a $1.5 billion capital investment. The site will produce radio-frequency components including film bulk acoustic resonator filters, along with other wireless technologies used across Apple products. Apple says the arrangement will support hundreds of U.S.

The agreement advances Apple’s effort to assemble more of its silicon supply chain inside the United States. Radio-frequency parts receive less attention than processors, but they are essential to reliable cellular and wireless performance. For Broadcom, the deal provides long-term demand that can justify factory upgrades. For Apple, domestic capacity diversifies manufacturing and supports a broader four-year U.S.
