Components Countries of Origin

[SLOwr]

Do we know countries of origin for electronic components on these devices?

There’s no way all hardware components are made in the USA, right?

The FAQ say “100% electronics assembled in the US” but subsequent articles discuss the global supply chain.

Purism– Liberty Phone

Table of Origin

The Liberty Phone has Made in USA Electronics with all fabrication and manufacturing done at the Purism facility. Individual components used in fabrication are sourced direct from chip makers and parts distributors. We use US companies with US fabrication whenever possible. Most distributors are based in the US with the exception of large integrated circuits that are made in a variety of countries where those companies do fabrication (US, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan); an example is the NXP CPU we use from their fabrication in South Korea. While we source chips that are made in the US whenever possible, chip country of origin is not nearly as meaningful as country of board fabrication, especially when all chips are verified hardware circuits that are driven by free software in the kernel.
