#TSMC Arizona’s first fab is on track to begin production leveraging 4nm technology. The second fab will produce the world’s most advanced 2nm process technology with next-generation #nanosheet transistors in addition to the previously announced 3nm technology. Our newly announced third fab will produce chips using 2nm and/or more advanced processes, with production beginning by the end of the decade.Each of the three fabs, like all of TSMC’s advanced fabs, will have #cleanroom area approximately double the size of an industry standard logic fab.Through increasing our capacity for leading-edge technology at #TSMCArizona, we will be supporting our customers to unleash innovations in all different fields including #mobile, #AI and #HPC. Watch this video to understand more about the exciting #innovations we will make possible in #Phoenix, #Arizona.#ManufacturingExcellence #TechnologyLeadership #CustomerTrust #semiconductors #CHIPSACT

How do you think about chip?Would you choose to own a gold mine, oil mine, or chip mine?#Chip #Gold #Gas #Oil #AI

At the close of 2023, it's reported that #TSMC and #Samsung will delay the mass production of 4nm chips at their new fabs in the US from 2024 to 2025, posing a challenge to the Biden administration's #semiconductor expansion efforts. #Intel's move to commence 2nm production in 2024 has been hailed as a critical step, aligning with the US Chips and Science Act goals, including widening its semiconductor tech gap with #China through commercializing sub-2nm technology.https://lnkd.in/gN7DzTHc

TSMC also re-emphasized that mass #production using its 2nm-class #fabrication #process is on track for #2025. #TSMC's #1.4nm #production node is officially called #A14, according to a slide published byDylan PatelfromSemiAnalysis. For now, #TSMC has not disclosed when it plans to start high-volume #manufacturing (#HVM) on A14 and its specifications, but with#N2 scheduled for late #2025 and #N2P set for late 2026, it is reasonable to guess that #A14 is coming after that (#2027 - 2028).When it comes to features, #A14 is unlikely to adopt vertically-stacked complementary field effect transistors (#CFETs), although#TSMC is exploring the technology. Therefore, #A14 will probably rely on the company's 2ndor 3rdgeneration gate-all-around FETs (#GAAFETs) — just like #N2 nodes.

🔥 Breaking: The U.S. government officially announced that it will provide a USD 6.6 billion subsidy to TSMC, confirming that TSMC will build its third fab in Arizona!🌏 Alongside the fab 3 update, TrendForce has further compiled the recent advancements of TSMC’s fab 1 and 2, including the implementation of 2nm process technology in the US!💡 Explore more details around TSMC’s schedule in Arizona here: https://buff.ly/3Ua2E8S 🔗 #TSMC #3rd #2nm

#Intel Secures First High-NA #EUV Equipment, Threatening #TSMC’s Position?Intel recently announcedthat it has acquired the market’s first ASML Extreme Ultraviolet (#EUV) exposure equipment with a 0.55 Numerical Aperture (High-NA), aiming to advance its chip manufacturing technology in the coming years. In contrast, TSMC appears to be taking a more cautious approach, currently showing no urgency to join the race for this next-generation exposure technology.The High-NA EUV exposure equipment obtained by Intel will initially be used for learning and mastering the technology, with plans to implement it in the Intel 18A process node in the next two to three years. Industry sourcessuggest that unlike Intel’s plan to introduce High-NA EUV and #GAA transistors simultaneously in the Intel 18Aprocess technology, it is anticipated that TSMC may not adopt this technology until the 1.4nm (#A14) node, possibly in #2030 or later.Check full insights via the link belowhttps://lnkd.in/ggnApNRJ
