President Donald Trump announced on August 6, 2025, that the United States will impose a tariff of about 100% on semiconductor chips imported into the country. This declaration signals a significant escalation in trade policy.
Such a substantial tariff poses a severe threat to the global semiconductor supply chain. It could lead to significantly increased costs for companies that rely on imported chips for their products.
For semiconductor manufacturers like ON Semiconductor, which operate within a highly globalized industry, this policy could have a profound negative impact on profitability and market dynamics. It also pressures companies to consider domestic production shifts.
