Samsung will manufacture qualcomm 5g chips at 7nm lpp euv
Table of contents:
Samsung has announced that it has reached an agreement with Qualcomm to manufacture its 5G chips using its manufacturing process at 7nm LPP EUV, one of the best in the industry that will enable high energy efficiency in the processors of the American.
Qualcomm will use Samsung's 7nm LPP EUV process
In this way, Samsung and Qualcomm expand their relationships within the field of processor manufacturing using the EUV (extreme ultra violet) lithography technique, since the new Snapdragon processors with 5G connectivity will be manufactured using the 7nm LPP EUV process from South Korea.. Thanks to this, the new Snapdragon will be smaller and much more efficient with the use of energy, something especially important to maximize the battery life of the devices that mount them.

E UV- based lithography promises to break the Moore's Law transistor scaling barrier, thus paving the way for chip manufacturing with a single digit nm scale. Samsung's 7nm LPP EUV process will deliver 40% more space use efficiency, 35% more energy efficiency and 10% more performance compared to its 10nm FinFET process.
Techpowerup font“We are excited to lead the 5G mobile industry alongside Samsung. With 7nm LPP EUV processing, our new generation of Snapdragon 5G mobile chipsets will take advantage of process improvements and advanced chip design to enhance the user experience of future devices (Qualcomm).
To continue expanding our foundry relationship with Qualcomm Technologies in 5G technologies using our EUV process technology. This collaboration is an important milestone for our foundry business, as it means trust in Samsung's leading process technology (Samsung). ”
