The 7nm finfet manufacturing process for tsmc is chosen by ia chipmakers
Table of contents:
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company's (TSMC) FinFET 7nm manufacturing process has obtained orders for the production of AI-capable SoC from a large number of companies based in China, and is expected to attract more orders from other companies. specialized in AI chip development.
TSMC's 7nm FinFET Earns Industry Confidence
AMD also recently confirmed that it is partnering with TSMC to manufacture the new Vega GPUs at 7nm, with the first samples slated to deliver later in 2018. This could mean that the new TSMC manufacturing process has already reached a good level of maturity, which is indicated for the manufacture of complex chips such as high-end graphics processors.

HiSilicon has announced that it will launch its Kirin 980 series chips under the process at TSMC's 7nm FinFET, which will power Huawei's new flagship terminals, slated for launch in the second half of 2018 according to sources. These Kirin 980s will have adopted Cambricon's IP processor. Cambricon's IP processor has already been used in the development of HiSilicon's Kirin 970 series processors, built on TSMC's 10nm process technology.
Crypto giant Bitmain will outsource its 12nm chip production to TSMC in 2018. Bitmain, which has already agreed with TSMC to manufacture its 16nm and 28nm mining ASICs, is also analyzing the move to the smelter's new 7nm process node.
TSMC has already revealed that it is slated to mass-produce 7nm chips with more than 50 recordings expected by the end of 2018, for sectors including mobile devices, server CPUs, network processors, gaming, GPUs, FPGAs, cryptocurrencies, automotive and IA.
Tsmc talks about its manufacturing process at 5nm finfet
TSMC is already planning its process roadmap to 5nm, which it hopes to have ready at some point in 2020, all the improvements it will offer.
Intel turns to the 14nm manufacturing process for tsmc
Everything seems to indicate that Intel is reaching the limit of its manufacturing capacity with the process at 14nm, which prevents the company from manufacturing. Intel is reaching the limit of its manufacturing capacity with the process at 14nm, being forced to resort to TSMC.
Intel delays its manufacturing process at 7nm until 2022
Intel announces a 2-year delay in its 7nm processors that will finally arrive in 2022, five years after the Cannonlakes at 10nm.
