Chipmakers in Taiwan say they expect only small disruptions to the supply of chips used in smart phones and PCs in the wake of an earthquake that killed at least 12 and collapsed apartment buildings in the southern portion of the Asian country. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, the $25 billion company that manufactures chips for Apple and Qualcomm among others reported no injuries or serious damage to its factories and said the quake, which measured 6.4 on the Richter Scale, isn't expected to affect chip deliveries by more than 1 percent this quarter.
