Following the news that Apple chipmaker TSMC had been forced to suspend manufacturing and evacuate its employees as a result of Taiwan's strongest earthquake in 25 years, the company is now ready to get things back underway. TSMC is said to be ready to restart production just a day after it was suspended.
The 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck the island's east coast and is rated to be the strongest to impact Taiwan since 1999. At the time, TSMC said that its "safety systems are operating normally" before adding that "to ensure the safety of personnel, some fabs were evacuated according to company procedure. We are currently confirming the details of the impact.”
