No sooner had the initial excited emotions evaporated over Taiwanese company TSMC building a chip manufacturing facility in western Japan than it was clear to those attending and involuntarily witnessing the trial that they would not only have to...
TSMC has long been a global leader in semiconductor contract manufacturing services. It ended the first quarter of this year with a 60.1% share TrendForce, and its revenue declined just 16.2% sequentially, slightly less than the 18.6% industry-wide...
edition wealth reminds that TSMC will hire around 4,500 employees for its two plants that will be built in Arizona in the coming years and for many of them the corporate culture of the Asian chipmaker may seem shockingly rigid. Weekend work and 12...
As previously mentioned, the NVIDIA CEO’s optimistic statements about the prospects of revenue growth from the implementation of computational accelerators for artificial intelligence systems have little impact on the business of TSMC...
TSMC chairman Mark Liu noted this week that negotiations with the German authorities over the possibility of building a contract manufacturing facility in Germany are generally going well, although a number of issues remain to be resolved before the...
In the USA, Intel wants to open new production lines not only in new locations, such as Ohio, but also in Arizona, so the problem of selecting production personnel is acute even now, before the emergence of new companies. The state is ready to help...
The tendency to double the density of transistors on semiconductor chips, which is determined by what is known as Moore’s law every year and a half to two years, has long determined the pace of the development of computer technology as a whole...
In a series of high-profile announcements by NVIDIA CEO and founder Jensen Huang over the past few days, mention has been made of management’s interest in leveraging Intel’s custom chip manufacturing services using state-of-the-art...
NVIDIA places urgent orders with TSMC for the H100 and A100, as well as the H800 and A800, which are specially designed for China. Orders from NVIDIA have already resulted in an increase in process utilization for TSMC’s 7nm and 6nm families...
TSMC officials have so far been reluctant to comment on rumors of plans to set up a business in Germany, preferring to mention Europe on a larger scale. Kevin Zhang, the company’s senior vice president, said this week that the board will make...
NVIDIA’s earnings report yesterday showed that the company’s data center revenue increased 14% year over year. Most importantly, investors were heartened by management’s expectations that NVIDIA would expect revenue to surge to $11...
As chip design becomes more expensive and time-consuming, chip designers and manufacturers are turning to artificial intelligence to optimize their costs and speed time-to-market. To date, more than 200 IC designs have been developed using Synopsys...
In the more than thirty years of its existence, the Taiwanese company TSMC has managed to become the largest contract chip manufacturer in the world and controls more than half of the market. It’s no secret that Intel’s current...
NVIDIA has increased chip fabrication orders at TSMC as demand for GPU-based computational accelerators for AI applications grows. NVIDIA appears so bullish on demand for its CoWoS (chip on wafer on wafer) packaged GPUs that the company has placed...
US-made TSMC chips will be 20-30% more expensive than Taiwanese ones – Samsung can benefit from this
Taiwan’s TSMC, the world’s leading semiconductor contract manufacturer, intends to sell chips made at the company’s factories in the United States at prices up to 30% higher than those made in Taiwan. Business Korea reports. It is...
A fire broke out at TSMC’s manufacturing facility, which is still under construction, on Tuesday evening. The fire was discovered at 19:30 local time and at 21:10 firefighters managed to extinguish it. Luckily nobody was hurt. Image source:...
At the 2023 North American Technology Symposium, TSMC released a roadmap update for its 3nm process technology, the N3 family. This family is expected to be the latest generation of TSMC FinFET process standards and will remain the densest process...
At the latest quarterly earnings conference, CC Wei, CEO of TSMC, said that the company is the first manufacturer to mass-produce high-yield 3nm products. At the same time, the demand for this service exceeds TSMC’s capabilities, and by the...
Taiwan’s TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.) said a new chip factory to be built in Japan will cost about $8 billion, while local authorities should help the company by covering about half of the necessary costs. Image source:...
