Moulton Celebrates $105 Million in Federal Funding for Wilmington Company Analog Devices

Salem, Mass. - Congressman Seth Moulton is pleased to announce that 6th District company, Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI), is slated to receive a federal investment of $105 million as part of the CHIPS and Science Act.

ADI is a global leader in analog, mixed-signal, and digital signal processing technologies. ADI has an important presence in Massachusetts, with significant operations in Chelmsford and Wilmington.

"The 6th District is home to many of our nation's most cutting-edge technology manufacturers - and ADI is a prime example. Congress passed the CHIPS and Science Act to help strengthen American manufacturing, sharpen our competitive edge, and bolster national security. I'm thrilled that this law is continuing to have a direct, local impact," said Congressman Moulton.

"Wilmington is proud to be the home of such an innovative company as Analog Devices. They have been a presence here in Town since 1981, and opened their global headquarters here in 2018, and all along the way, they have been a tremendous corporate partner to the Town," said Eric Slagle, Wilmington Town Manager. "We are thrilled that they are getting this well-deserved grant from the Federal Government, and look forward to continuing our partnership for years to come."

ADI is at the forefront of innovation in the expansion of U.S. semiconductor manufacturing," said Vincent Roche, CEO and Chair at Analog Devices. "Our focus on enabling innovation at the Intelligent Edge is driving advancements in process technologies that are critical to our global customer base. This investment will help us strengthen our workforce training and community partnerships, as well as expand our efforts to manage our environmental footprint.

The Department of Commerce's proposed investment of up to $105 million would support ADI's projects in Massachusetts and the Pacific Northwest. The investment in Massachusetts would enable the company to increase module production output for its packaging and test facility, which would expand capacity for commercial, space, and defense applications as well as new commercial phased array antenna and sensor solutions. To advance the company's workforce efforts and community investments, ADI plans to build on its partnerships with local universities, community colleges, and other education partners.
